And I'm really excited about this community!

#1032	ladypaint	Nov 06 2007 13:25
I'm not only new to CC online discussion but have never joined any online group. I'm 63 ...5'0" and weigh 160. Have had an eating disorder forever. It has taken many form over the years. I was reading posts in the group "shorties who want to be thinnies" and would like to say to the young women (or men) who are are 5ft or so and weigh 120ish...to beware of getting too hung up on the numbers on the scale. I remember "back in the day" finally getting to the golden ring of 100 lbs....WOW, that was really great for a very short while. But in looking back I wish that I would have accepted my what must have been my "natural" weight of 119. I wish that I would have accepted that ...AND MYSELF. Paying that much attention to my weight and all that went to it at the time....took attention away from other areas of my life that cannot be redone. I know we all have to find our own way...and I still haven't figured out how to do it. But now I am wanting to be healthy instead of "thin". And I am grateful for CC. I tried it before and stopped. But now I know that I really need to be conscious of what I eat because so much of my eating is unconscious to deal with other things. I am grateful to be here and to have this site. Thank you. LP

I spent about 10 minutes watching and trying to understand the attraction of the show. Perhaps its my age. I think I will have to stay where I am a while longer until it blows over.
