I have never been really overweight. Actually, I haven't really grown much in any direction since I was about 14. I am 5 feet tall and weigh about 114 pounds. I wear a size 6 petite. As with many women with eating disorders, my problem had less to do with weight and more to do with the impossible standards I set for myself.
Nothing is ever good enough.
Please trust me when I tell you, the eating disorder is always a manifestation of something else. There are a few trusted people in my life who I have confided in. I have a master's degree in microbiology, so I can actually give specific reasons why the fish may have made me sick, thus increasing my credibility. But enough humor. I was always a high achiever.
