Introduction


Hi, I'm A!

I'm currently in recovery from anorexia, and will be using this blog for my thoughts and to document anything that helps me along the way. I'm hoping that it will keep me accountable, and that one day I'll be able to look back and see how far I've come.

August Recovery Wins

But I feel like if I document all the positive things I'm achieving (and I'm not expecting these to be every day!), then I might actually realise how far I'm coming. 1st and 2nd: Felt okay in my body 3rd: Managed to lift a new weight on the leg press I managed to sleep without medication! 4th: Actually felt happy and confident in my body I feel like leggings look better on me now than they used to I didn't compensate for eating a lot yesterday Managed to sleep again 5th: Managed to have dinner at a reasonable time Felt pretty good 7th: Tried on my thermals from last winter (it was a cold evening) and they actually worked like they're supposed to! For some reason I was under the impression that thermals were just tighter-than-usual tops, but I feel like this is actually trapping my heat(!) to me 8th: I wore a bikin...
