congratulations on the weight loss, 50lbs is an amazing amount to lose. you must feel very proud, although its very short time to lose it and I hope you can find a healthy way to carry on, even though it sounds like you've been struggling with this for quite some time.
and im really against people thinking clinics are only for people on their death bed, its not. i wish they didnt classify people as 'anorexia' when their bmi falls below 17.5, i dont think you should avoid your issues because you dont fall in the criteria. i went to a clinic in january for a few weeks but left to continue my studies, however their were girls there from a bmi of 13 to 28. yet both deserved to be there.
you deserve to fight this.
much love x

Hi, thanks for accepting me as a friend firstly :) I didn't know that about the clinic admitting people over the healthy BMI range, all I remember is that when I was about BMI 19 they said they would admit me if I dropped below 18. BMI 13 :( I know yours is very low too, so I hope you are taking as much care as you can.
