hi all..
i know recently this year my health has really declined due to bulimia. Many would say just stop then but its not that easy.. so i thought maybe we could share some nutrition tips that may help us while we are on the road to recovery..

some i have heard of are:
1. take vitamins.. the ones that arent timed release.. in the morning or at night
2. drink lots of water
3. take iron
4. drink water after purging (but dont brush)

Too much iron can be dangerous. Make sure you get your iron levels tested by a doctor so the doctor can prescribe the correct dose of iron, if needed, for you.

Most multivitamins don't have iron because too much is harmful. Make sure you are deficient in iron first before taking it.
