Ok, if you were in treatmeant for Bulimia and they told you that you had anorexic tendencies as well.. let me get to the point, anyways you went from being 302 to being 176 in a matter of 1.5 years, you were 5'9" and 23 years old, btu you were nto ready to get rid of your Eating Disordered behaviors even though you know they are wrong whatwould you do? I am in therapy still, and still see my self as being humungous!!! I have a lot of body shape issues now. Any adivce or ideas?

Well, I say just stay strong and lean on the people around you. Bulimia and anorexia are hard things to overcome.. but I do commend you on getting help! It's hard to let go of thinking your large.. even if you really aren't.. I remember when I weighed 128 pounds and cried because I thought I was fat! I could seriously go back and kick my a s s now..

well of course you still have body issues. society is telling you that you have to be something and you're letting it crush you. find out what makes you feel beautiful. if you are worried about your weight and body, then lose weight the healthy way. get toned and get trainer and nutritionist. don't hurt yourself because society says you're not how it thinks you should be. and hon, your weight sounds fine. what are you, a 12? that's better than the average size american woman (which is 14).

sometimes our bodies hit what's called a platou. (I don't think I spelled that right). it has adjusted to what you have been doing. you need to change things up now. change your routine so that you catch your body off gaurd. (ie, if you've been running, try a mix of swimming and aerobics).

change things up.
