    Question for anyone with bulimia

    Hi there -- looks like you've got great support here. I skimmed the advice/help, but here's my own: 1. Shop around for a gentle therapist you trust. Someone with whom you can be totally honest. You deserve therapy...if you're ready and willing to change, it will work wonders. 2...

    Have I just *totally* screwed up my body/metabolism?!?!? -------->

    RE: Have I just *totally* screwed up my body/metabolism... Geneen Roth was the forefront of my healing. When I read the first GR book four years ago, I made a pact with myself to want the TRUTH more than anything else. I can tell you -- life changing. Roth (and many others) advocates...

    Have I just *totally* screwed up my body/metabolism?!?!? -------->

    RE: Have I just *totally* screwed up my body/metabolism... Nancy324 - You said it from the top! Please take her advice -- you don't have to go it alone. You deserve the help and have the right to "click" with your therapist. Might take a couple tries (ask questions, feel her/him out)...

    sprained ankle?

    Yeah, I am not too patient when it comes to missing my step class! I broke it on my way to the dermatologist office to have a biopsy (and, i was wearing my Rykas -- not heels, of all things!). So, I walked out with stitches in my shoulder and a swollen ankle. What a day! So frustrating...

    Where do you get your idea for your class routine?

    RE: THANK YOU EVERYONE! Also, find an instructor you love and take moves from him/her. That way, you experience the moves live. I find it easier to learn that way. Matter of fact, my fave instructor who draws clans of followers uses some Cathe moves -- I didn't even know that until we...

    sprained ankle?

    Hey, has anyone sprained your ankle recently? I've done this several times, just not in the past couple years. I've forgotten what a pain! I twisted it and fell last Tuesday and have tried to stay off it as long as possible -- It's frustrating, I'm ready to be moving again, but I know it's not...

    Your experience with self-care?

    Wow -- What responses!!! Thank you. Keep writing.... Sparrow, I relate to you the most. Just to tell my story, not playing victim, I felt I've lived in my family's shadow for too long. Always feeling intense and creative, but feeling like I'm TOO MUCH. You know, don't rock the boat...

    Your experience with self-care?

    Hi, smart women. I'm always curious to the ways others think and feel -- everyone is different, so if you wouldn't mind sharing some insight: your personal experience or just general advice would be greatly appreciated!!! The subject is guilt and self-sabotage. Like, why might we feel...

    instructor certification question

    I've always gone thru AFAA -- very easy certification -- practical and written. Whatever reputable route you choose, get an idea of what the exam is like from an instructor you know and like. And, follow up with that instructor -- see if he/she will critique your 5-minute demo, and once...

    RSVP for formal wedding - please help!

    Hi, I'm sending "yes" RSVPs to formal wedding invitations. I've always completed the "M_____" line with my "iss" for "Miss" following the standard M already printed, then wrote my name. Is this right? I find it so confusing and have heard both ways -- fill out the rest behind the M, or...

    What's your dream job?

    Seems like animals, travel, producing, and fitness pop up as regular themes. Maybe we could develop our own production company that travels the world shooting fitness/wellness safaris -- raising money for pet shelters, of course! (My dream!)
