When your health starts to pay for your eating choices....then it's really time to decide if it's really worth it. Hoping that you use your wise mind to put together your logical thinking with your emotional & realize that the ED you are dealing with isn't worth destroying your health with.

Sometimes we come to a point in our life where our body finally tells us that it's had enough of our doing stupid things to it.....know that ED's are an illness in most cases.....I deal with anorexia when under stress & have been hospitalized because of it.....so I definitely understand.....but I also know that it takes a decision on our part to STOP our not eating or our purging (or overeating included)....then it takes determination to continue on the healthy path no matter what the voice inside says. It takes an internal strength to recover....but to start it all, it takes the desire to stop. You CAN CONTROL IT....you just have to be determined & have convinced yourself how unhealthy your eating patterns are. It also helps to have someone that you are accountable to.....who will be checking on your progress.....someone that holds you accountable for your eating....your actions....especially if you are not strong enough to hold your own self accountable (which is very very difficult).

It's not easy, but it's not impossible if you truly desire to STOP.
