3 weeks!!! yay for me!!! its been 3 weeks since my last binge and i coulnd't be happier. its been such a great day. i weighed in at 148 this morning so i've lost 1 lb this week. i talked to my parents, which doesnt happen very often because they live on the other side of the country and we've just never had that kind of relationship where we talk everyday or even every week. so that was nice talking to them. and i went to my first dance class in 2 weeks, since i first sprained my ankle. my ankle and foot were both hurting a little bit by the end but i didnt care. i made it all the way through and that means i'm on my way to getting back to all my classes.i still can't believe i've gone 3 weeks and i cant think of many times i actually wanted to binge during that time...but there were definitely a few. seriously, if i can do this, so can all of you. as i read everyone else's journals and they're having such a hard time with their ed, bingeing on most days, i am reminded of how i was when i was there. i had the same low points as everyone else and there were so many times i never thought i would even get this far, and i have. i dont want to stop this. i cant wait til i can start counting months instead of weeks. i dont want to screw this up and i know i have all of you to help me and to thank for all your support. like i said before, if i can do it, so can you because i am no different than you. all i can say is that you cant change overnight, it takes time to change enough in your life that will lead to no bingeing. i still have problems, like eating my  roommate's food, which i really want to stop doing, but i'm working on it. its all the little changes i've made over time that make this easier.....not eating fried foods and ice cream at work, not buying certain foods and keeping them in my apt, not buying junk when i go to the grocery store or walgreens, not allowing my boredom to lead to eating, etc. and trust me, i didnt change all these behaviors at once (eventhough i tried). i focused on each one at a time and over time i still dont do them.now i know i'm not totally cured and still have a chance of relapsing, but i feel like i've come so far. to go from bingeing atleat 3 times a week to not doing it at all for 3 weeks is a big deal for me. now i want all of you to be here with me so we can all celebrate our success. so to all my DS friends, keep trying and dont give up!!!
