Today was birthday and I am 16 now. My birthday was good. But I had to eat alot of cake and stuff, and now all I want to do is throw it all up. I really want to but I know its bad. If I don't I know its going to bother me all night.

Hi! Happy belated sweet 16!
I hope you did not purge your birthday cake...much to good to waste! I try to tell myself that it's ok once in awhile to eat something we may not necessarily want to...and that one day of eating something with more calories will not kill me in the long run. I'm glad you ate some cake, it's your birthday! If it's difficult to be good to yourself, then at least be good to yourself on your birthday sweetie...

It's your 16th birthday. Enjoy! Give yourself a break.You have plenty of time to excercise or whatever to make up for it. Don't worry about it!

Happy Birthday. I hope you kept the cake in. I had my birthday last week and kept mine in and actually ate some items at a buffet table. I was really proud and that sure feels better than the guilt trip after purging

Hi sweetie Happy Sweet 16! I know how you feel. You deserve to treat yourself to something good once in awhile without ED being in the way. I'm gettin a litle nervous myself because next month I will be turning 40, and my family is already making plans to party it up. I don't like being the center of attention and everyone trying to guess how much I will eat before I purge, if I eat anything. I hope you didn't have that pressure from others. This day is YOURS. enjoy every minute the way YOU want. You only turn 16 once.
