My Bulimia Recovery Story

Like you or your loved one, I have a history of bulimia and have been recovered since 2005. My name is Polly Mertens and I am really glad you're here. I'm a living example of how it is possible to overcome bulimia because I would binge and purge sometimes 10 times a day for 20 years. My eating disorder story began when I was 14 years old and over the years I tried all kinds of bulimia treatment methods.

Every woman's road to recovery is unique. There are many valuable resources and treatments for bulimia recovery. They include:

In and Out-Patient Treatment Centers

Whether you choose an in-patient or outpatient facility, the best center to suit your needs is out there! Read on to discover which eating disorder treatment center is right for you.

Bulimia Support Groups

Finding a support group is not as difficult as you might think. Addiction recovery groups help you stay on track through the help of others like you who want to recover from bulimia. Read on to find out more about eating disorder recovery groups and how to find one you're most comfortable with.

Nutritional Support & Emotional Eating Programs

Focus on good dietary practices is key to helping you find your way back to health. In addition to psychological therapy, nutritional therapy will help you get strong while you develop new and lasting eating habits. Read on to learn about the bulimia eating programs available.

Personal Transformation Programs

Learning to change the image you have of yourself is fundamental to healing from bulimia. Breaking the chains of low self esteem and overcoming bulimia were the result of my personal transformation work. Work on your inner game and your life will be forever transformed.

Personal Development Training

Changing your habits through personal development training provides you with bulimia self help tools for maintaining an optimistic and healthy perspective on life. I chose to grow myself bigger than any problem (like ED) and that's been the key to my lasting recovery.

Self-Help Recovery Programs

Using tools such as bulimia hypnosis, eating disorder books and audio books, visualization exercises, meditation/prayer, and the Law of Attraction you can supplement traditional methods of eating disorder recovery. I'm a big fan of the power of positive thinking and have learned that your vibration, or attitude, determines what you get in life.

My mission through this site is to create a community where women feel inspired, heard, connected, beautiful, loved, loving, joyful, and overflowing with purpose. If I can be a guide whereby you can transform yourself into the powerful being you were meant to be; someone leading a meaningful life where you are thriving not just surviving, then I have achieved my goal.

GetBusyThriving.com is a channel for you to see yourself as already recovered even while you are still in process. When you see yourself in this way, you can bring happiness, self-love, and inspiration to not just your own life, but also the lives of others.

I encourage you to join our community where you can share your thoughts, communicate with other recovering and recovered bulimics, and keep us apprised of your journey towards health! Feel free to email or post a comment when the spirit moves you.
