I'm a dancer and I never really thought about my weight until I started getting more serious about dance, which was after a competition when I was 14 and I got some special awards and an invitation to the national dance team. I didn't go because we were going on a family vacation the week of nationals, though.

So I'm coming in mega-late, but I only just started using this community under a different name. Here we go:

 

Name: Sadie
Age: 20 (as lost last week!)
Height: 5'5" even
Weight: as of this morning, 180. I cried when I saw that.
Highest weight: 180. like, ever.
Lowest weight: 141 two years ago
Goal weight 1: 160 by October 15
Goal weight 2: 140 by December 15
Final Goal weight: 120 by February 15

I have sort of an eating disorder, bouncing back between bulimic and anorexic. At my worst I was binging and purging 6 or 8 times a day, and then going a week without eating a thing. My best friend grabbed me and told me I needed to stop, or I was going to die. I told her she was just being dramatic, to try to scare me, but then I passed out on the stairs and fell down three floors, and I realized she was right. I've been in therapy since February and it's been helping, but my therapist isn't a nutritionist and isn't trained in eating disorders, so he doesn't know how to help me lose weight safely.

New friends are totally welcome. Add me!

Young Calorie Counters Fending off The Freshman Fifteen... Aug 10 2008

I'm a late joiner, but I've been looking for a community like this, and I am so ready for this. It was sad, because I actually LOST about 15 pounds my first semester, and maintained for the rest of the year. I didn't gain weight until I was a sophomore, and I gained that 15 back, plus another 20 or so. I'm disgustingly back up to my weight as a high school junior, and I'm hoping I can get 20 off by fall break, October 15th. I would be happy with a total of 40 gone by winter, and I need all the motivation I can get, because I have a tendency to go good for a few days and then give up.
