Eating disorders aren’t a choice: you were hard-wired this way. You have the support and resources to heal at your own pace, in your own way.
The process looks different for everyone. We all know some days end in defeat and tears. Don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s. Be proud of baby steps.
You didn’t choose to live this life, but you can choose how to live it. If you’re reading this, you’re on the right track. I’m excited for you to heal, and I’m happy for you, too. I want you to empower yourself to acknowledge your WINS.
There’s no victory too small to celebrate:
〰️waking up and brushing your teeth
〰️saying “no” when you need to set the boundary
〰️plating breakfast
〰️adding on to lunch what you missed for am snack
〰️going grocery shopping even though you’re exhausted
〰️showing up to treatment when you want to skip
〰️choosing the better option, not the safer one
〰️telling on your eating disorder
〰️body checking less today than the day before
