I'm now going on 8/9 months without a single binge/purge, and without any effort these days. I'm not boasting - I am truly relieved to tell you the truth.
The other things that have been key for me are supplementing a multivitamin, plus lots of extra magnesium, some zinc and fish oil. The fish oil and magnesium have been very important in treating the depression and sleep disturbances that were plaguing me along with the bulimia.
I am presently the lightest weight I've been, but not underweight. I'm 5'6 and weigh 138lbs - a lot of that is muscle as I train everyday for tennis and also swim/run. I eat around 2300 Kcals a day. Sometimes more. Before I was around 150 lbs + and starving myself on about 1300 Kcals a day - also the bingeing and purging before.
Well anyway - I want to keep this updated in case it all goes to pot, but my guess is it won't.
I hope you're all well!
