You can look up sliding scale therapist who specialize in eating disorders, then when you find one ask who they recommend nutritionist wise (tell him/her of $ issues) Then go online and find either a 12 step recovery program or an over eaters anonymous group (totally free) you can learn so much from the other people there and get great supports. Start keeping a journal of the days events and thoughts, whether positive or negative. Good luck and if you have any questions contact me.

Is there anyone at work that you trust enough to talk to about your problem and maybe make yourself accountable to her every day and do the same with someone at home?

After seeing a Doctor today he suggested also that I make someone at work aware and I did. He also put me Celexa and wants me to start cognitive therapy on Friday. My husband is thinking of setting up microphones or cameras at the house which seems drastic because bulimics get really creative but I am willing to do whatever it takes at this point. Hopefully, I have been lucky and all my blood work and enzyme panels come back in descent shape tomorrow!
Thanks for the support!

    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...
