Hi,
I am new to this support group or any support group. I didn't think I need one but I do. I am trying to get/eat healthier. I am addicted to laxatives an I'm slowly giving them up, need to gain a few pounds since I only weigh 78 pounds and I am 47 years old. I need encouragment to eating healthier.

I care, Please eat healthy and make yourself beautiful. I was 5'4" at one point and down to 108 pounds. I looked like death warmed over. My hip bones were sticking out like a skeleton, I had black circles under my eyes. I was not giving my body the nourishment I needed to give it so that it would be healthy and vibrant. It destroyed my natural immune system. Now I have chronic fatigue, RA, osteoporosis, IBS.
Trust me it is no fun trying to manage all those things and the pain that goes with them.
I did gain weight after I was so skinny. The damage was done. When I got all those things I gained to 160. Now I am trying to get down to about 125. Which would be healthy for me now.
Please eat things that will make you healthy and the right size for your height. I care.
