Hi I’m new here

Welcome 🤗
Thank you for opening up
And being vulnerable.
You are not alone here and I hope you get the care and the support that you need 🩷
@Amanda84
thankyou so much
it’s nice to know I’m not alone 😊 and it sometimes feels like restriction can help me gain control

Hi, i'm trying to gain some weight but i'm so afraid of numbers on the scale, you did that, can you please help me and share some advices how to not be afraid of raising numbers? Please 🙏🏻
@enthusiasticLime4501
i actually haven’t stepped on the scale for a year I just focused on how my body felt
but at some point I had to check my weight in the doctor’s office, to the doctor I was still normal weight and didn’t show any shock from how much I gained
so I suggest never checking your weight until u have to do ur regular check up at the doctor

Can we text in private/direct chat? I don't know how to do it. Maybe texting together will help both of us
@enthusiasticLime4501
Members cannot directly message, but you could create a thread in the penpal section which is private between just you too 😊
@Amanda84
I don't know how to do it 🤦🏼♀️
@convivialTangerine4247
