[QUOTE]I'm with Nebb in that I'm living in the wrong time period. I hate today's times and this shared distaste is a good chunk of why H and I don't want kids. I lurk on TN to read the threads about people's crazy ILs or crappy relationships. If for no other reason than to be thankful my life isn't like that. I live in my head more often than not. I wish I could retreat there permanently. I hate office working and judge myself for doing so.

Were very alike sesh. I live in my own head a lot, generally I prefer my imagination to reality.

I eat sour cream like its yogurt sometimes.

And I got so mad at my FI once that I threw a tube of toothpaste at him.

Oh, Hansen reminded me.

My first and only concert was to...The Backstreet Boys.

You guys can't make fun of this one. I'm oddly drawn to the idea of waist training. I'd do it but I think I'm too fat for it to be effective. My goal for when I hit my goal weight someday is to fly out to bc and get one made at the same shop dita does.

7 years after I started "recovering" from anorexia, I still struggle with food.  I gained weight, so I started working out and counting calorie with the goal of just losing a few pounds.  But then I freak out because I worry that I'll start becoming too obsessive and will "relapse", so I eat like crazy to avoid it.  Then I feel guilty. And the cycle begins again. 

Maybe I haven't "recovered" as much as I tell myself.

The first concert I went to was silverchair when I was 12 - my friend and I were so scared we wrote wills before we went because we totally expected to die.

[Deleted User]

The Situation is not hot. Body, maybe, but that face? Ugh.

Nebb, I almost agreed with your shower one too but figured that would be weird, 2 agreements in a row. But, I do. Bathing is a waste of time when I'm not that dirty. I force myself to shower and complain the entire time.

I'm a huge Gleek, but I never get to watch Glee when it's on, so I DVR it and watch it on the weekend. I watch the musical numbers over and over and over. I'm crazy jealous I'm not in New Directions.

I made my friends see Spice World for my birthday one year - I had already seen it 3 times before that. I was a hardcore Spice Girls Fan. I even did a Lipsync dance thing for our school's talent show with 4 friends to "Spice up your life." - I was cool.

<div>Wow.  That's heavy.  The fact that you haven't had a full out relapse is amazing and you should be proud of that.  Maybe still exercise like you want but focus on healthy/clean eating and not so much the calories.  Feeling good about yourself and eating healthy should be top priority.</div>

Oh - and my first concert was Barry Manilow. 

I seriously have good taste in Music, I'm just not showing it off today lol

I've seen Spice World, Legally Blonde, Cheaper by the Dozen, and The Break Up probably over 100 times a piece. I'm a bad movie watcher.

<div>I LOVE showering.  And shaving my legs.  I love that smooth feeling when I'm done.  Showering isn't about being clean to me, it's just a time where I can have all to myself and forget about everything else.  Love. </div>

[QUOTE]DAMN IT.  I didn't watch last nights yet.  Haha (I should have said).  I can't stand Sarah.  I think she's a whiny baby.  I also can't stand Diem and was irritated to see her on this season<strong>. I love Wes.  I don't know why.  I think he's a major asshole, and so obnoxious, and I hate the way he plays the game, but he brings so much drama, which is what makes the show worth watching.  Plus, I'd bang him with a paper bag over his head.</strong>

I can't quit Glee, even though it sucks so much right now.

Many of you won't be surprised by this, but if I could (meaning, no job to worry about, no irritating family judgements, lived in a different time with a different culture closer to my heritage), I would be tatted up like Whisper (my Whisper, obviously) across my back, ribs, and shoulders. A huge piece that tells a story. It would also be magical, if I could manage it, ha.

I'd also wear full-on traditional regalia every day.

That's pretty standard, isn't it? You're never not anorexic, just in a better place, for lack of better wording? I feel like my friends who have struggled with it are never over it - because it's part of who they are? Like an alcoholic or addict?

Have you/do you see a therapist?  You don't have to answer that.  But it might be something that is helpful for you.
