New Website Launch

Richard's picture

Pheew, well after a few day of hard work the new site is up and running. A few of you might be wondering what happened to the old site? The old site was pretty good, why change something that isn’t broken right?

Well, Ali and I have learned a lot in the two years Bulimia Help has been going. When we first built Bulimia Help we were scared to stick our heads too far out of the sand. We had an idea of a new way to recover from Bulimia, but it was very different from the established process. Sure the idea worked amazingly well on Ali, but she was only one person, would it work with others?, we just didn’t know.

Its not that we weren’t confident in the process, it was just that the whole world was taking a different approach to us, and well I guess that did affect our confidence a bit.

So when we created the site we added our message, but we said it quietly, we whispered it throughout the site, it got diluted, and got lost amongst everything else that was on the site.
The one thing we did notice was that those members who did get the message, they made the fastest progress in recovery. So not only did we know that it works, we were very CONFIDENT that it works!

So, we decided to do it again, but this time better. Bulimia Help 2!

And so we have started to make changes,

Firstly, You may have noticed that the top tabs are missing, with all that lovely advice. Its gone, instead we are replacing it with a new ebook, which will be ready in a few weeks. The ebook is going to give a good over view of our new approach to recovery and will contain some great stuff. The idea is that all members read the book. That way everyone is on the same wave length, and coming at recovery from the same angle.

Secondly, the site is very different we have added new features ( private messaging, tweets) but unfortunately we weren’t able to upgrade the site and keep all the old friends. For that we are truly sorry, but we know you will all have lots of fun making new friends on the site.
We will have lots of other changes planned over the next few weeks and months so keep your eyes peeled.

In the mean time if you wish to contact me about anything regarding the new site you can email me on Richard@bulimiahelp.org

Enjoy the new site,
Richard Kerr

never forget to NEVER GIVEW UP! After 6 years of struggling I am doing better and feeling better than ever! RECOVERY IS POSSIBLE, even though it takes a lot of hard work and an emotional rollercoaster ride it is so worth it. WE CAN ALL BE FREE from this, as long as we keep on going, keep fighting for our right to be happy and healthy! YOU ARE WORTH IT!

Planning meals and times in advance takes the stress and strain away from deciding what to eat and when. Try planning tomorrow's meals and snacks the night before.
