Mags, glad you are ok after the icy drive and glad the heat is back on
Devs, congrats on 11 weeks! Bulimia is a different disease but it is like other addictions. There is a pink cloud phase in the beginning where you are feeling on top of the world and you know you’ll never go down that path again. The pink cloud does start to lift at so,e point, though - maybe why the urges are more frequent now- and life settles in. Keep going strong through this phase and those urges will get less and less. One day at a time! My mom suffered from an eating disorder too 🤗
I heard from Aly and she is ok. She has been having computer problems and is getting it worked on. She said she hopes to be back here in a couple days ❤️
Grateful to have slept well again
Grateful to start Queens Gambit with Mr F last night. So good!
