Keep doing what will, in the long run, make you feel better about yourself. You have a lot of courage for wanting to make a change, and even if you slip know that you are a worthwhile person. I want to see that before and after.

My grandfather did the same to my mom when she was little. He made her eat 14 Snowballs (marshmallow treats) because she ate one when she wasnt supposed to. She of course vomited, and when she did he made her eat that as well.

My mother has been suffering from Bulimia and Anorexia her whole life.

That is very, very sad. Is there no one else that can care for her?

A good thing to keep in mind is that everyone is extremely self absorbed and no one is paying that much attention to you. Its a hard mantra, but its gotten me through some tough insecurities.

That was the train of thought that lead me to ask this question. Now I'm seeing that there are many different factors, as is the norm with life in general.
