I only take herbal diet pills to keep my body fat low and my energy high, as I am a semi-professional athlete and I need to be at peak performance while I keep my weight down. There is no such thing as a magic pill though, because you still have to exercise and have a least a decent nutritional plan to stay in great shape. <em>weight loss plan's last blog post..<a href='http://weightlossplanner.wordpress.com/2008/09/05/weight-control/'>Weight Control</a></em> I won’t take anything synthetic.

I had already been through treatment...and a relapse...and was very, very sick. My boyfriend at the time made an exorcism appointment for me with a local pastor. It didn't seem horrifying because I grew up in a religious family with Pentecostal roots. Of course the "excorcism of my demons" did not cure my ED, but caused more guilt, shame and depression (ie: I must be such a horrible sinner in God's eyes because he isn't healing me.) Anyhow, I'm grateful that this organization of charlatans was exposed. My heart goes out to the victims. P.S. I am researching the relationship between pregnancy, motherhood and eating disorders and would be grateful if you posted my website link on your site. <em>Lesa's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/dlt/~3/378458152/how_do_you_like_your_momagenda.htm'>How Do You Like Your momAgenda?</a></em> This post took me back to when I lived in the “Bible Belt” and was suffering terribly from my eating disorder.
