I have gone through a couple of very hard things lately and my bulimia and depression had just escalated out of control. My doctor wanted me to go back on anti depressants and I am just tired of having to take a pill everyday to just feel ok (not even great, just kinda blahh )
So I decided to follow my faith, I had lost touch with what was most important to me, My faith, my God. The only thing that without any meds can bring me back to a great place, a place of peace and happiness :)
I am so happy to say that I have not felt the need to fall into my old bulimia habits, nor any depression negative talk, and what makes it more wonderful, now that I stopped obssessing over it and just tried to live a better life, I have lost weight!! :)
So I just want to say to everyone, hang in there, I know its tought and the road seems endless, but you can do it. You can say to yourself I chose me...I chose to help me, and to love me. One day at a time.
I am here if anyone needs support :)

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I'm very glad you have come to an emotional understanding with yourself. Stay in check though- you are not invincible. :)
I'm on meds and I have a pretty strong faith. I just became a Christian about 3 years ago but it has given me so much.
