What I Overcame Today

Hi All! I thought I would start a post about what we were able to overcome...big or small..I think that sometimes, at least for me, I tend to forget about some of the progresses that I have made and the steps that I have taken!

So lets see...The other day I was able to prevent myself from Purging! I felt good about that


WHAT HAVE YOU OVERCOME TODAY?????

I woke up and got out of bed.
I am having some tea with a splash of skim milk and grapes.
I came on here and I was attacked by someone who called me a bad friend. Right.

Congratulations!! It's so great to be able to focus on the positives rather than the negatives.
Ummm...I think I've nearly completed my uni application. Which is SUCH an achievement as it's taken me months.

With this disease you forget to look at any positive you could have and focus on that. you really got me thinking in the right direction now and hopefully I can come up w/ something to post. Thanks

I think that this is the most effective posting and I will start looking for the positives in each day from now on, well done all, lets keep this going, because there are "positives" in every day. hugs from Fane

    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...
