Hi guys-
i am new at this so I think I need some advise from like minded people! I have been fighting an bulimia (and a little bit if anorexia) for about 9 years now. I starting purging and focusing on my weight a lot in the 7th grade, but was not diagnosed with an eating disorder until the 9th grade. I was actually tattled on by a fellow cheerleader! But, getting help was the best thing for me. For several years I was doing fine. I have not purged since my senior year in high school.

My freshmen year in college I gained maybe 10 lbs putting me at around 135. That was the highest my weight has ever been! I also had surgery to remove my gallbladder which did not help, as I was not able to exercise or do crunches for a while. I was extremely unhappy with how I looked. I have now finished my undergraduate degree and I have worked hard to knock the weight off (mainly by running). I now run and watch what I eat, but I am still very unhappy with how I look. I thought I had this thing beat, but it is clear to me now that I am still battling. Currently I am around 118-119lbs, but I have a goal of 110lbs.

I know that I am eating less, but that makes me feel better and I have hopes that if I loose several pounds then I will be satisfied with how I look. I know that my body image is distorted, and I feel like I need help. So....Thats why I am on this forum! Does anybody have any suggestions, or advise? I feel like I need a support group of people who are not going to tell me i'm crazy for not being happy with how I look at this weight.
