  1. YOU CAN DO IT! Counting days can be really helpful. You get to a certain number of days without b/ping and then the idea that you'll have to start counting from 0 again is enough to deter you!

    Do something to distract yourself...grab your ipod and go for a walk. Or take out your cellphone, walk around the block, and call someone you haven't talked to in awhile. Movement usually helps me..and it makes me feel less fat and lazy, which often leads to the b/p in the first place.

    Always text/call if you need it! <3

  2. I second Emily - YOU CAN DO THIS.

    Her advice is the same I use. Particularly the going for a walk/moving option. My therapist recommends my just leave my apartment (where I usually am when the urge hits - because sometimes just leaving the physical area helps.

    Wishing your friends luck a well.

  4. Thinking of you <3
    I Know you can do this. Just remind yourself how beautiful and worthy you are of love. Purging won't even be tempting if you allow yourself to see the way others see you.
