5. You did an amazing job today. A day at a time. For many years

I binged and purged and I thought I was "getting away" with it. I had a normal weight and sometimes, underweight. Then I went for a regular check-up and was diagnosed with fatty liver because of all the sugar I was consuming (that I falsely thought) I was purging away. I was scared crapless! I was so frightened that I immediately stopped the behavior. I was scared about the calories, but I was more frighted of liver disease.

For our physical and psychological well being, being uncomfortable with the calories for a while, until your new behavior, healthier behavior becomes the new norm is well worth it. Sleep well and day at a time.
