EATING DISORDERS COMMUNITY
new to purging

new to purging

im a 43 year old male, i was 400lbs about three or so years ago, and i lost 275lbs with diet and exercise. in the last 4 months i have started to binge and purge, my potasium dropped and i had to go to the ER. i have stopped the binging almost totally, but i cant stop from purging if i eat anything more than a small salad. im going to my first group therapy session in 2 days. i think i can give up the idea of being so thin, although i really really like it, but reading the posts on this site, make me think stopping is next to impossible, is there a good chance of recovery with out patient treatment or will i have to bite the bullet and go to a live in rehab?   my treatment is with kaiser hospital, should i just wait and see how it goes first?
