You are helping so many girls by doing this!<br /><br />I would probably stay at school, only because I'm sure there will be some fab parties there as well and it would be a good time for you to chill with your friends. But I understand not wanting to miss out on the family stuff either.

I mean, it's a little difficult being that I live off campus and my roommate is gone from early in the morning til late at night but I hide in my room and eat if there's anyone in the house and I *know* it's a symptom of the bigger problem so I'm certainly working on it.<br /><br />AS for the Superbowl, I'd say go home and have fun with your family if you don't want to miss out, unless there is something really super fun happening around school!<br /><br />Also - just started following you on Twitter.<br /><br /><3Lahttp://lovelala.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-457689006014443183.post-14358068235185028012010-02-04T22:17:27.638-05:002010-02-04T22:17:27.638-05:00Since it's your first weekend back at school, ...Since it's your first weekend back at school, I think it'd be cool to stay up at school! I mean it's understandable if you're celebrating with your family- but becoming active in college social life is key to the experience :)!

Otherwise you will just slip up again, which at this rate you are on the fast track to another relapse.<br /><br />This literally means buying new ingredients, new meals and forcing yourself to eat them, even if it's scary.<br />This is more than just a "different cereal" in your yogurt messes<br />More than just bread instead of a wrap for lunch<br />and more than just a different type of roll or mix of veggies at dinner.<br /><br />i am not, and will not, be convinced that you are serious about recovery until you start eating new things (stif frys, oatmeal, toast and pb, fruit salad, a pastry once in a blue moon, sushi, ANYTHING)<br />(i know i know, who do you care who i am or what i think....) <br /><br />just a few suggestion jenna, i hope you start taking these seriously!KTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-457689006014443183.post-24244002230150728572010-02-04T19:05:38.942-05:002010-02-04T19:05:38.942-05:00I ate alone during my ED as well.
