I started one of these a long time ago and it got lost, so ithought i would start another.

been anorexic since i was about 9 and have managed to maintain a stable weight for about 10 years now. however whenever I am down or under pressure i turn back to my evil twin. dh and i have had some probs recently and i havent eaten properly for about two weeks. have dropped nearly 2 dress sizes already and i can seem to stop. i will, i promise, but at the moment it seems... comfortable.

Sorry to hear you're suffering as well Lissie

Hello Ladies,

I have an evil twin in the form of a compulsive eater. For years I have managed myself to be more 'normal' and I thought I was succeeding, but I am having some blips at the moment, probably as I am adjusting to being a new Mum again.

Greatscot - I can relate to your emotions. My dh is away at the moment and I am hoping I have a better week. Last time he went away I mailed the smaritans as I felt so low (didn't have the guts to phone as was blubbing like a baby, and I really have nothing to be down about, which makes me feel worse

I recently joined a slimming group as I really need to lose some weight.. this is not something I imagine, I really do.. I am more than the weight of my two boys put together to lose.. some days are good but I am starting to think maybe I should not have joined this group I am dreading the scales already, though first time I joined this group I did do well (when my head was working positively!!)

How are you all today?

hello ladies, have let this slide,sorry, suppose ive been trying to ignore it. saw my EDT today and he's not happy with me. apparently this is the frst time he's seen me really behave like an anorexic. i normally keep it under control but my evil twin is winning and i cant say no

how is everyone else?

I feel crap at the moment. I feel like I'm eating loads, and like I've put on weight. Dh says I haven't, but I feel like I have.

I know this sounds realy bad, but I find I get really quite jealous of other people not eating. Does that sound terrible? It's like anorexia envy. I want to be really thin at the moment. I feel so unattractive.
How are you feeling at the moment lissie?
And everyone else, how are you all?
