Location: Australia | Clare ~ Thats a really great attitude to it, well done on not letting your slip up get you down. I'm sure that by going one day at a time you'll do great :)
Wow. I can't believe that it has been a whole 21 days, everyone should be so proud of themselves. Keep up the great work and will power. Wishing you all the best and all my love.
when all this is over, if I make it, I'm going to be staticly happy and try to keep it up after. Would be great if this helps on the road to recovery...
Much love, Arlette |

Location: Australia | No problems Clare, my pleasure :) Everyone slips up sometimes and it's up to our friends to help us up again. I know, it's been 22 days already, it's unbelievable! Everyone is doing so well and I am much liking the idea of a new challenge after this one. Stuff it really rough at home right now so it's getting more and more tempting to cut but I really don't want to give up yet.
Good luck and keep it up. ILY you guys. |

| You guys are such an inspiration to me. Now that I'm not planning on SIing I think I'll join this forum if you guys don't mind. I haven't SIed since 1.3.10. Only 10 days but still, I'm getting there. You guys are doing so well; don't worry about slip ups. Don't feel too guilty about it because that will only make it worse. Keep up the good work <3 |

How did your weekend go Clare?
:D 27 days SI free!!! I never thought I would make it this far. Went through a rough patch since my last post and came really close one night and had to have a friend calm me down over the phone. But I didn't cut. feeling very proud and I'm learning to deal with the cravings more effectively. How is everyone else doing?
Much love n stuff, Arlette |

| I was feeling pretty down today b/c I got in an argument with my mum, and I was even thinking of SIing. I'm just glad I have my friend S with me here to keep me safe. I'm doing 110% better now and still SI free since the 1st :) Hope everyone's doing well.
Way to go Arlette! You're doing wonderful. |

Location: Providence RI | hey everyone, I'm very late joining this one, but I have been SI free since Feb. 12. Obviously being as I am in residential it is hard to get at anything to do it, but we all know where there is a will there is also a way. I have not Yeah. So I guess you all also know what my mini goal or immediate next step is to get off of my tube feeds so since I am doing well with the first goal, I'm uping my anti. I'm adding a second thing for this week. Complete meal plan compliance. wish me luck guys. If I make this one, I will treat myself with a facial. |

Wow everyone is doing so well and I am so proud of everyone here for sticking with it and really giving it their all. You guys are a huge inspiration and an incentive to keep up with it. I'm glad to see people comeing up with ways of coping without what they have given up, it's really great. Do many of you think that you will continue after lent?

Location: Australia | Heya Clare!!!!
It's nice to see you're back and I'm glad that having some you time has helped you lots (: Really proud of you too for keeping up the no drinking and also that you have reduced the amount you are cutting. I'm really excited for almost being at the end of lent, but I'm scared that I'll slip up once its over since i still get urges to cut. I'm managing them now but I worry that once the incentive isn't there anymore i'll start up again. Really proud of you darling *hugs*

Location: lost in my head | Oh my goodness the biggest hug for you! I am so so proud! Try just keep going one day at a time or set your self another little challange, and if you slip up dont worry about it jus keep thinking you have gone for 47 days now, and that is a pretty massaive achivement and if you can do that once you can do it again! Well done you again you put a big smile on my face, keep going, your just fabulous x |
