Well friends... its been fun, but its time for me to go. As helpful as I thought DS was, its also contributing to my current relapse. Please know that each of you as individuals are awesome, and not one person in particular is a problem, its just the website as a whole. Initially I came here for support. But I quickly I found myself getting on DS to surround myself and obsess over ED for hours on end.
I do not desire to embrace ED, or let him win. I need to surround myself with healthy and positive choices. I am still fresh in recovery and although my strength appears endless, the reality is.... its not.
I am in search for LIFE....for JOY.... and for HEALTH.
I am sad that this is my goodbye, but its best for my recovery. I love each of you, and I am thankful for the ways you have given me hope! I believe in each of you. Dont let this terrible disorder win. YOU have the power to do this, whether you believe it or not.

bye coop, I'm sad you're leaving, but if that is best for you, then you should. Good luck and lots of love to you. Stop the relapse before it gets too far along. You can do it. You don't have to be perfect. Just keep fighting. Hang in there darling

I followed your story since you came to DS and I know you're going to make it out there! You're a wonderful person and the sky's the limit for you. Sorry to hear of your relapse, but it happens to the best of us. Maybe when you're further along in your recovery, you can come back and offer us some advice? SOME of us will still be here ;) Luv 2 u.

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...
