About Me

First of all, I'd like to say that if you don't have an eating disorder but wish you did and are here to find out how to develop one, please go back the way you came. Wannarexics are not welcome here. Eating disorders are not diets, they are not fads and they are not "cool". If you do have an eating disorder and find anything in this journal helpful, you're welcome to it and I wish you the best. I am here to support others with their disorders and to be supported myself, it's our bodies and we make our own choices. Always remember, you are BEAUTIFUL and you are LOVED! <3 "What I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that though I do not know you and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you, I love you. With all my heart, I love you." -Valerie, V for Vendetta

Elated

 I feel utterly magnificent today. I'm down 11 pounds since Sunday and someone even said they NOTICED the difference! YAY! It's always hard to see weightloss on yourself, since you're looking at yourself every single day, so I took out a photo of me at my heaviest weight, 195 lbs. Holy shit is there a huge difference! You can see a dramatic difference in my face alone! Course it's a 31 lb difference between now and then, but still! I really notice how much better I look now, I have a long way to go but I WILL get there!
The compliment I got today was sort of.. about me but not to me really, a friend of mine was talking on the phone to her friend and she was talking about all the weight I lost and she actually said, "yea she looks great!" What a confidence booster! Thanks to that I'm even more determined to drop all this weight. Some people I know have never seen me below 155 lbs, just wait till they see me at 115 and 100 and maybe even 98 lbs again! Ahh that would be great, I was so gorgeous back then. I'll get there again though, I'm sure of it.
I think I've gotten over my food addiction too. Being in recovery for being underweight was like.. putting a former alcoholic into a place that forced them to drink. When I got out, I was addicted to food as ever and shot back up to 175 lbs. I have the stretch marks to prove it. Speaking of that, once I get to my goal weight, my next step is to get rid of said stretch marks. Maybe I'll be lucky and they'll be less visible when I drop the extra weight, but if not, I'll need to find some stretch mark remover or something..
On another topic, my family made bacon hamburgers and chili for dinner.. It smelled soooo goood and I wanted some sooo bad but I did not have even one bite. So proud of myself for that! :D My stomach is still 100% void of solid food, all that's in it is juice and water!
Anyways, looking forward to tomorrow! Maybe I'll be down 2 more pounds!
164 lbs as of this morning! Yay!
