Who Is This Crazy Girl?

Well since I am new here and I want people to read my blog and potentially follow it, I might as well give some info about myself.

First off...the eating disorder...

Thought I would just get it over with since it's always a dark cloud hanging over everything in my life. Anyway, I have had an eating disorder for about a year and a half. I grew up with an anorexic/bulimic/exercise freak sister, so that didn't help. One summer day I just felt fat and decided to eat nothing but a yogurt for lunch and only 5 french fries for dinner. I don't understand why I couldn't stop with restricting. I got down to my lowest weight (109 ibs), then my ex broke up with me by fall. I binged, shot up to 125 ibs, and told my shrink and mom about it in a nervous break down. I was diagnosed with an ED, and I tried recovery for about a month. Ever since then I have been between 125 and 120 with binging and restricting. I met my wonderful new boyfriend this summer (more on him later), and was inspired to recover for good. Then I had my wisdom teeth out in August and dropped down to 122 from lack of food. I'm also sick. I have weird stomach/digestive issues so food is a definite problem. I now weigh 118 which is driving my mother nuts. However I like it and am shooting for 115. Whoops! Guess this doesn't help recovery at all.

Okay so enough on that garbage...

Likes: Cats (particularly mine), writing, poetry, books, music, the band Incubus, fashion, lace, socks, boots, sunshine, hot chocolate, God, my family, friends, and boyfriend.

Dislikes: People who are mean to animals (they should just fall off the face of the Earth), pickles, hypocrites (even though I am one), intentionally bad grammar, cold weather, stomach aches, and mushrooms.

There's obviously more to each list, but I don't intend to bore you to death.

Info on Boyfriend:
 He is the same age as me, but has graduated high school.  He had a horrible childhood, and is trying to break free from it. He is sweet and adorable. I love him more than anything. Although he did some things no one is proud of in the past (nothing major), trust me when I say he is a good one. He knows about my ED.

Other random info on me:
I'm 5 foot 6 inches. My hair can't decide whether it's brown or red. I am American, but always grew up spelling things like I'm British (favourite, colour, etc). Anyone else do that?

I'm going to (eventually) post this on a separate page for those who are new and want to know who the heck I am. Thanks for reading! ^_^

Thank you to my new followers!
