I'm cured

I think I'm finally cured. (:

I don't really care much about calories any more and have entered a healthy BMI zone. I can eat out, I can eat dinner with my family, I can eat white rice, I can eat random snacks my family offers me.

I would like to tell all those still struggling with anorexia: you can do it! It feels great to be free from calories.

I feel that in order to beat anorexia, the most important area you have to work on is your mindset. I started to get much better when I got to realise that calories shouldn't be something you rigidly count. You can eat more on somedays, you can eat less on somedays, it doesn't really matter much. I feel that even if I get "fat" or need to lose weight, using all my newfound nutritional knowledge I will definitely be able to conquer it.

(I still eat Kashi etcetera though as fibre is good for health and golean is tasty [crunch is too sweet, how do you guys stomach it?])

Congratulations!!!

This is such good news!

You definitely have a story to tell, I'm sure you could inspire a lot of people who are currently battling anorexia.

If I were you, I'd really take this opportunity to help or maybe even save someone.

Great job toasttoasttoast!!

Congratulations! I am so happy to hear you are feeling free. Thanks for sharing and please keep inspiring us.

By the way, even the regular Kashi Go lean is too sweet for me. I can't eat it unless I mix it with shredded wheat or something like that.

That is so good to hear, toast! :D I'm really happy for you. I can't say "I'm cured" yet, personally - but I know I'm much further along than I once was.

For the cereal, I agree with what charlie suggested: mix it in with a less sweet cereal like bran flakes or oats, or shredded wheat.

Congrats!

well done toast :) congrats !!! im so happy for you....im the same as lalabanana-i cant say im cured either beut im definetly alot better than i was an definetly on the full road to recovery!! ur an inspiration to us all wanting to be cured too! x

OMG thats AMAZING!!!!!  you are great!  keep posting and telling your story and helping us and we will catch up!

That's awesome :)
I'm proper happy for you. Wish I could say I was having the same success, but I think I'm on the road to recovery too.^^

Keep it up! x

thats so great! congrats :D I still havent gotten rid of the calorie counting, but I think that I have it a bit more under control. At least I dont go crazy over a pound gain that I dont expect like I did before lol I worry a lot less, and feel so much better with myself now that I have accepted myself as I am. I still am a little under a healthy BMI but just by a little :) so hopefully that'll change very soon!

wish us luck!

***im almost there yay!!!!***

congrats, well done im so happy for you, you have done brill. i feel like im finally getting somewhere, some days are harder then others, but i do have 1 or 2 days aweek now when i can eat more and not feel bad, ive set myself a no calorie count on saturdays, im just going to eat what i want when i want and not count and not feel bad, i did it on saturday and it felt good, when i started to feel bad bout the calories i just kept repeating to myself that food is medicine its good for you, your kids need you, that helped.
