Ugh.
Lately things have been super duper hard. I've gained a substantial amount of weight- almost reached my halfway point to my ultimate recovery goal. While I should be happy about my progress- I have been feeling so horrible about myself. I feel fat, ugly, unattractive, gross. I can feel the fat on my stomach, legs, and arms that has reappeared and Ed keeps telling me how disgusting I am. The past couple days have been I guess you could say "not-so-great" (behaviour-wise) but today I'm really trying my hardest to get back on track. I went on a mini vacation and although I did okay during the time away from home, ever since I got back things have been so difficult since I weighed myself (note to self: big mistake).
So. To get back on track, I'm revisiting the self-talk which I seem to have forgotten lately- I keep telling myself that my weight gain is GOOD. It is healthy. I am nourishing my body and this recovery process is what I need to do in order to have my life back.
Stay strong, stay YOU

This blog is my attempt to share my journey towards recovery from my eating disorder. My goal is to educate, empower, and ultimately inspire others that while recovery is a long and gruelling road, it comes with such reward and eventually freedom. I hope to focus on the positive and not dwell in the negativity which we are so prone to in these difficult times. I truly want to help others understand that they are not alone in this. One day, we will be free from this hell.
