My main problem was binging A LOT, and about two years ago I started purging to lose weight. It worked and all, but then I started getting severe nosebleeds and passing out all the time in public. So, I knew I had to find a new way to lose the rest of the weight that I had to lose. Now, I eat fruits and vegetables all the time, as well as whole grains and good sources of protein. I drink water, milk, 100% fruit juice, and green tea. I don't really eat processed food and I don't drink ANYTHING carbonated. I work out every day, be it running or cycling or weight training. But it has gotten so hard to stay motivated because the weight is coming off a lot slower now. I want a buddy (or multiple buddies!) to help encourage me, and I also want to encourage others! If you wanna talk just email me: jodivicious@hotmail.com ANY advice for staying motivated would be awesome :)
Reply from charlotte, Age 15 - 12/24/07 - IP#: 71.112.40.xxx great job with the progress you've had. As for staying motivated change things up try new healthy food, new exercises, and maybe even meal tracking. Plus set small goals with small rewards that aren't food.

Reply from ella, Age 18 - 12/22/07 - IP#: 72.144.91.xxx Jodi, I know how it is to purge and struggle with bulimia because I did as well. Just focus on overall health more than weightloss because it is very easy to fall back into it and that is just so unhealthy. Good luck, girl.
