\"Well, if you\'re not happy, then you must change something in order to have any chance of obtaining happiness. I need my family. I want to be accepted by my family. I feel like the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results each time? Well for 5 years I think I\'ve been insane.\" That is a quote from guess who?? YOU!! And that was yesterday. The bending back and forth? Willing, unwilling, willing, unwilling. When you are willing to change you can\'t just stop there. You have to move forward and make a decision to believe. Follow the yellow brick road. I love you. XOXOXOXO

I feel like I know you from yourjournal and because we share the same thoughts and feelings so I know you want to change. We are all a little bit insane but ED makes us totally, 100% crazy. It\'s ok to feel confused. I do all the time, but if I really listen to Joanne, I do want to change more than anything. I am at the point where I just need to throw caution to the wind and follow the yellow brick road. The fact that you are having so much conflict means you are there also. Love ya!!!

I understand. I was like that with drugs and alcohol, but like I said before, you really have to do it. You really have to change your eating habits, even if it\'s a bit. You\'ll feel so good... Maybe not right now doing it, but you will. I haven\'t gained any weight, but I eat a little more. I\'m deathly afraid of all this yes, but I feel so much better that i\'m probably doing more activity which, in return, I am buring those extra calories I took in!
