You really need to get help. You have shown that you can stop the purging, and you must be proud of your achievement in that sense. Of course, the ed is now manifesting itself in another way which is just as harmful. It will take a long time for you to enjoy food agin, if you ever do. You cant expect yourself to just bounce back from the bulimia and be cured. Dont pressure yourself too much. You have really made a huge step in stopping the purging and you need to give yourself time. Dont be too hard on yourself xx

I'M GOING FOR HELP THIS COMING WEEK BUT I'M WORRIED IT MAY HAVE TURNED INTO ANOREXIA..AM I WRONG?

Anorexia and bulima go hand in hand. I know I suffer from both. I either starve or I purge. both are equally as frightening and damaging. I am so glad you are seeking help. I go to treatment 4 to 5 days a week and I am just starting to gainsome control over ED. Today is not such a good day but with the therapy I know tomorrow will be better.

It definitely sounds like you turning to anorexia. I hope you are seeing a doctor. If not start right away.

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...
