Monday, September 22, 2008 | An Inspiring story

I laughted at my therapist when he told me that one day I would be able to have a packet of biscuits in the house and not open them. Maybe a few days later to have two, then leave them and again in a few days have a few more. Oh i did laugh! I could eat several packets in my binges along with the rest of the crap I ate.  I could NEVER leave 'bad food' in the house.  OH I LAUGHED!!!!!!!  But he hasn't met anyone like ME!!!! I thought to myself! he doesn't know how BAD i really am!

 

 

2 years on......I can have 2 biscuits and then leave the rest of the packet for another day or for someone else to eat some.  there is icecream in the freezer and chocolate in the cupboard. On occasion, I do slip up, but I know my triggers and I am able to stop myself and start afresh in the moment. THAT, is recovering from Bulimia!Laughing and I am doing really well!
