Hi irishmum! First off, my profile is blank and says I joined just today, but really I just created a new profile because Im still not 100% over my bulimia and none of my family knows and I want to keep it that way.

Anyway. My situation is very similar to yours. Except that Im not done fighting my battle. I have been bulimic on and off since I was 16. I am 21 now. My weight topped out at 240 lbs after a complicated twin pregnancy. Before which I was already a good 30 lbs overweight at 175. I went from 240 lbs down to 150 lbs through, as you said, starvation (aka stupidity).

Currently I am trying to recover.  I wish it was as easy for me as it was for you! 150 lbs is the lowest I got through bulimia. It basically maintained my weight after that. Now Im working on eating healthily mostly. I still dont eat enough, but the anxiety and urge to 'get rid of it' are too strong if I eat just a bite too much. I am now at 154 lbs and hoping that I stop gaining at some point.

Anyway...I just wanted to reply and let you know that you arent the only one out there! Feel free to ask any questions or personal message me any time. :o)
