When you are there, learn all you can and when you get out, keep it up. It's more of a life style change than anything!

i'm so glad, but ummm why are they asking you to diet? i would think that would be counter-productive.

Itzjustme 07/23/2011

no they arent asking...i said i wanted to do weight watchers and i asked my mom and they said well its better than me not eating and they said weight watchers is gonna teach me how to eat and i will be healthy

Thank you so much ladiess

Aww really which op did u go to?

U know something...Wen I got ther... Thers gonna be girls wayy thinner than i am...ther gonna think that I'm just ther just to be there and making up my Ed...or something...ill feel like an oddball but my therapist Faith said don't go to this center looking for friends just focus on treatment...so that's wat I'll do

deleted_user 07/24/2011

my therapist is called Faith too lol, I don't think you need to worry about what sizes people are, from what I can gather us with ED's come in all shapes and sizes, go for it, you deserve it xox

I'm not in OP anymore because I live 2 hours away from OP. I had trouble with transportation. And, I felt the same way. I weigh 172 pounds, so I feel like people think I am going there are attention and what not. But trust me. once you get there, it's not so bad. It just takes a while to get used to it.

good luck :)
