today is an anniversary of sorts for me. it has been three months since i have dramatically gotten rid of any food that i may have uncontrollably eaten. there, i said it and i said it in the nicest way that i can think of. since this is my blog, i can talk about what ever i want. if you are reading this it is most likely because i have invited you too. if i have invited you to read my blog, then you most likely know about my struggles.
bulimia and uncontrolled eating come in many different forms. it is a tight rope that i walk now. believe it or not, bulimia is not just about throwing up your food. bulimia can manifest itself through exercise and excessive exercise can be a form of purging. that can be a difficult thing to deal with when you are running ultras. i have really been trying to practice balance in all things. to the non-ultra runner, they might think that i have a problem. i know at this time that i do not and i am very happy to share my feelings about this with my friends.
my goal is to reach a healthy weight that will allow me to run well and feel good about myself.
it feels really good to be able to share this with anyone who might be reading. thank you!
