Thanks and I'm glad you got through yours as well. In the end I was ultimately in an unhappy relationship and though I wish the circumstances of how everything went down were different, it was a blessing to get away from her and in the long run everything has worked out so much better. I eventually found out she was hiding £200,000 debt from me as well (thankfully it was under her name and I didn't have to assume any of it).
I agree on most people not noticing it when it affects them and when they realize something isn't right it is too late. I honestly didn't think it was a problem getting so thin. For that short period of time w/kg got crazy good and that made me happy. Similarly with the heart rate. At rest it went down to the low 30s and during strenuous exercise I couldn't get it to touch 150 at one point. I've always had a low resting heart rate, but I remember a brief month long period when it first started where I thought "damn, I'm getting so fit." Everything unraveled after that. My immune system was so shot that I was always ill with something and I lost 100 watts on the bike in 4 weeks. Getting back to good took time and patience.
Sorry for the sod story. I hope anyone who is dealing with over training much success in their pursuit of overcoming this.
