    Anyone know where hellosunshine went? I just started to think about her hoping she's doing well, and went and dug up this thread.

    Hope you're out there, sunshine!

    aha! hello,well up to 49.8 kg and LOATE it- i am loads healthier,the renal failure has been corrected,ive got very bad osteoporosis as a result of it and have been advised not to ride my bike,(ive ignored this!)they want me to go onto anti depressants as now im begining to infiltrate life a bit more, im self harming

    BUT the main thing is im stronger on the bikehowever i do find that even having put on a few pounds i feel most grotesque in cyclin kit and skinsuits when i ride,this i find VERY hard indeed


    the temptation to starve is there 24/7 but i know if i went down to 3 1/2 stone again the damae i have already done would be exhasperated

    horrid horrid disease,but battle on!

    Hey HS!

    Nice to see you! I just wanted you to know that it's good you're still fighting the battle!

    Please take care & just know there can be a light at the end of the tunnel. I'm not familiar with eating disorders & can't give all the support required but hope your health keeps improving.

    Hey, great to see you sunshine! I am SO glad that your weight is up a little and your health is improving. Self-image is a strange, strange thing, and I can't imagine what it's like to have to battle that too. Hang in there, you're doing really well!

    Sunshine,

    Did I read your last post correctly - the want you to start antidepressents and you're self harming? As in cutting yourself?

    Apologies if I'm misunderstanding you.
