Long and bumpy road.

In the summer 2013 I got really obsessed with my body because my mom almost died, and I know the cause is she was extremely overweight, so I would never be that. 

Over the fall I started exercising and quickly found out I had the ability to purge, and then it startet. I would eat normally as I always had, but purge around 2 of 4 meals and exercise - like running 10 km, cycling for two hours and so - (I was never the one who over exercised but I did it everyday and got no time to relax) 

Then after "fall break" it just got worse. I ate 2 times a day and I purged all of it, and I continued with the exercise + I had got a job and was working 20 hours a week + my school.

At Christmas my mom found out I had lost a bit of weight and that I purged. She got me to a doctor and o talk a little with her, and after a month I should have a weighing to secure my weight being stable. And it was. And I was devastated.

So from January the 21st I totally stopped eating, just from one day to another, and I managed to lose 17 kg before getting to a ED clinic marts 31st.

 From there it was great. I started eating from day one, and of course I had some small set backs.

It first really started getting worse summer 2014 when my dad died.... My school couldn't handle my grief and I transferred and I got well again and had such an amazing year.

Then summer 2015 we decided I should enter some kind of college called an after school - a kind of 10th grade where you live away from home but you can come home every weekend if you want to -. And that's where I am now. And it's going like crap, when I come back from a weekend i from first second restrict... And I'm loosing weight, and almost down to my lowest...
