Hey guys. Someone very important in my life has been through some real hard times and she did get into a bad place which included an eating disorder. She overcame it quite a while ago though. She has recently lost weight again and is severely underweight (to the point where it's hard to look at her simply because I can't see her anything but happy). Its because of a medication she's on for something completely separate but its triggering her a little, losing weight and having less of an appetite I mean. She is sort of trying to get some weight back on. I mean, we're trying to tell her to but she doesn't want to - but she also isn't actively trying to lose any more. Its just happening. Yet, she's hit a bump and now see's herself as overweight and ugly and unhealthy. She just keeps losing weight but that in itself is a trigger. She is getting some of her old (bad) tendencies back and I have tried and somewhat talked her out of most of it. She doesn't want people worrying and the mentality behind it isn't dire right now. But with the medication making her lose weight continuously and a part of her liking it or becoming conflicted she's triggered. I thought that the push from more than just me could help some more. She's trying her best and hasn't relapsed but she's started to feel triggered. Thanks for reading and please leave a comment if you can, it would be very appreciated. Any tips or anything would just be wonderful.

Hey all, My names Chelsea. I've tried 3 separate times to change my diet to Paleo in three different ways and I last about 4 days before I give up again. I can't figure out why. I give in to my cravings so easily it's pathetic. I'm really looking for someone to pull me through this and help me stay committed and dedicated. I could really use the advice and the companion. I run cross country and track and currently have a fractured tibia. I'm not allowed to exercise so I feel like it's the perfect time to concentrate on changing to Paleo but I absolutely need help. Anybody out there? Let me know. Thanks a lot.
