Loving uni college life!
Just a quick entry - I am loving life on campus at university. Friendly people, lots to do, meal times set and meals cooked for me, not even any sweet vending machines!
There are only three meals a day, so I am getting hungry in between, and haven't been sleeping too well, but I figure my body will adjust a bit. I'll probably have to start taking fruit back with me, or forming a habit of getting a glass of milk before the kitchen closes each night.
There are lots of opportunities to exercise too - often in groups or in a fun way.
I'm a bit concious that I'm developing a bit of an aversion to fruit - I think of it as sugar and I don't eat any any more, as it was previously my snack food. I am a bit worried that when I get home the lack of structure will lead to binging. But for now I'm just so happy to have this ED free haven. No binging, no purging, very little temptation!

i'm at college too. there are definitely aspects of the life and meal structure that can make eating patterns easier. i've also found things that make it harder (like being on my own a lot more), but it sounds like you have a good structure with limited meals, prepared for you, etc.
i did have trouble upon coming home and the structure was suddenly gone and there was a kitchen full of food...so be aware of that, have a plan or a safety net of some sort if you can.
it's wonderful that you are feeling so good so far, though--keep up the positive attitude! :)
Hey, thanks for the warnings =) I think that I'll get onto the university counselling service. I feel like a bit of a nong asking for help when I'm not being sick & am perfectly healthy right now..but I don't want every holiday to be a trip back to hell >.<
good luck in your efforts too!
