[and those nutrients!] Think of ED as the stupidest idiot you ever met shouting nonsense over a fence and there on the side WITH you are all your inner resources, friends, and strengths. See us standing there with you holding your hand.<BR/> Then when you can join your friend at the kill anorexia party, at which I hope you eat,perhaps you can both bury the useless bastard. <BR/> Again, the messages can and do go away! Don't debate them, change them to messages you want.maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05476646540007179475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-45918301634671945122007-08-07T14:44:00.000-04:002007-08-07T14:44:00.000-04:00I keep thinking that my life will be perfect if I ...I keep thinking that my life will be perfect if I can just be thin. Of course, realistically I know that all that will change will be the tag on my jeans.

I don't think it was something I'd have picked up on my own, but I was super glad to have come across it randomly.<BR/><BR/>i very much relate to the whale vs. mackeral thing... I am struggling with relapse in a huge way right now. It's all I can do to keep myself from sinking again (sea reference back atcha).<BR/><BR/>I'm about to run out of therapy sessions, insurance wise and it is coming at the worst possible time. *sigh*<BR/><BR/>So, when do you get to my neck of the woods?

Even me with terrible aim can usually hit some part of the object in question with a nice-sized fry pan (Rachael Ray's line is good for especially hard-skulled individuals). And also, the food cooked in the said fry pan is also good weaponry. Oil is a must- I prefer olive or sesame. Or butter. ;)Carrie Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569839838912988783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-31706675944650312482007-08-06T10:50:00.000-04:002007-08-06T10:50:00.000-04:00carrie,I know this siren's call... all too well.
