Hi guys!

I'm new to the ED scene and thought I'd post here. I used to be a binge eater, but lately it's become more of a bulimic subtype. I saw my psychiatrist and got diagnosed. I saw the binge eating as a problem, but I didn't think about compensating for it until I heard a song. It spiraled out of control after that. Now I'm counting calories and weighing myself constantly. I'm exercising excessively, and purging if I don't think I can work off a meal. This morning I ate a cupcake at work and had the urge to purge. I even started coughing like I normally do. If other people hadn't been in the break room I think I would have gone through with it. I never realized how disgusting I was until I saw the calories on the things I loved to eat. No wonder I'm so fat. A lot of girls who are bulimic think they're fat when they're really not, but that's not true for me. My BMI is 29.4! That's almost obese! Every time I went to my doctor's office I dreaded getting on that scale because I knew the numbers would be bad. But I never did anything to change it. Not until now. But I still have to ask myself... was changing to this really worth it?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
