geness, you are kickin' some ED butt girl! Your attitude is awesome 
wlibbe, hey hon! I've seen your pics of you with your sisters and, for what it's worth, I think you put 'em to shame in the looks department
! I know what it's like to constantly feel in the shadow of another member of your family though, no matter what people say about how you compare. I am the same way with my mother. She's a career woman at the top of her field, beautiful, charismatic, slim, intelligent, gutsy, motivated, persistant, goal-orientated blah blah blah. Although my ED could be interpreted by some as a way of trying to 'beat' her at something ('if I can't be ___ than you then I'll damn well be thinner than you!' 
), I think it's actually more of a way of saying, heck, I quit, I'm tired of trying to live up to your gold-standard. Maybe it's the same for you with your sisters too?
As for your day without purging (I hope you lasted the evening), that's great! Burning throats are a bitch, as is all the rest of the 'package deal'. You had any labs done to check all is doing ok still? I'm having one tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous. It's better to know than not though, right?
Don't you just wish you never got into this god forsaken mess sometimes? This is my 7th year now and, being 21, I feel like I've gambled away the best years of my life.
