Loving it

[failure2win]

I am absolutely so happy that I am recovering right now. I am thrilled. This is not sarcasm. While I do have my rough spots and things that make me want to stop, overall I am incredibly happy that I have come so far. I have been eating what I want to eat, when i want it. and i am maintaining a decent weight (wish it was lower but can't have everything). And for once i am proud to say that i am short! and that i have meat on my bones! because... Damn Does it Look Good on ME!!! :D

heck yes! I'm looking forward to getting there! i just joined eating disorders anonymous and I feel the light... congrats! wish me luck as I wish you luck!

good luck! hope for the day when you can drink 3 cups of supersaturated chocolate milk and not care! (like 900 calories). i didn't even notice til my mom said something. BMI's are for the truly obese people! those charts can't tell the difference between healthy and happy people. I am proud to say that i am technically overweight and I DON'T CARE. It's by two pounds and even i can't tell the difference. Thank the lord my boyfriend almost left me or i would never have gotten this far! (plus i missed the chocolate, and the soda, and the pizza, and the cookies,)

So happy to hear that =) So many people I look up to in recovery. I spent my entire summer in recovery and it is the best thing I've ever done....I still want to lose a few pounds as of now. (i gained more than im comfortable with in recovery) but overall I'm much happier.

oh. i definitely gained more than i want. but i am accepting it. i'm 17, i shouldn't be worrying about how i look.

This thread gives me so much hope. :)

I'm also one of those short girls whose BMI just doesn't reflect their body type - my dress size and BMI don't correspond AT ALL.

Perhaps it's time to push that scale under the bed, stop calculating BMI's and live.
