I had an appointment with my CPA and consultant on wednesday. Apparently they are very worried about me after the answers I gave to some of their questions. Everyone kept telling me tell the truth or you wont get the correct treatment but I kind of wish I hadn't. They're making a big fuss over it and I don't feel it's quite as bad as they are making it.
Because of problems at home I'm staying with my bf's parents at the moment which isn't in London. So they have even put me on "red alert" while I'm away from them. Basically it means they call me everyday to make sure i'm ok and still breathing
I admit I am struggling but I just feel this is all a bit over the top. I'm not even underweight yet.
I had my bloods taken Wednesday and had an ECG (which came back normal). My blood results will be in early next week though. They needed blood tests to refer me to the local eating disorder clinic which is what they are wanting to do. I'm really worried about them doing that though because I'm going to walk in there looking like a hippo compared to other people under their care.

Please don't be afraid of getting help. My parents wanted to send me to a treatment facility early in my eating disorder and I refused to go because I thought that people would look at me like I was too big to be there. Years later I now wish that I would have gone because things may not have gotten as bad as they eventually did. Just because you're not underweight doesn't mean that you shouldn't be there. It might help you find your true happiness and healthiness. I wish you the best dear :)

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
