never

if only, i could see what it would be like if i never suffered from anorexia.

how different life would have been!

i would have never lost my love for dance...

i would have never have lost my passionate future of living in the city

i would have never have lost my first true love...

i would have never have lost my group of friends...

(to a degree, i never wanted to do anything!)

to become someone i never imagined i'd be:

Recovery is more than weight gain, youre gaining your life back..

your hope, your future, your passion, you

NEDA- spread awareness, gain back a life

silly advertisements

before my spin class, i stopped for a late lunch at whole foods;

garlic green beans, sesame glazed tofu (my favorite), stir fry noodles, and a quinoa dish.

I HATED THE QUINOA and i dont know why?! maybe because it was cold? i didnt like the mix with chickpeas? hmmmm... any good recipes i can try at home?

its okay; i finished everything else (;

ohh and i love what the little tent fold says in the background:

"be good to your whole body"

yet another silly advertisement!

Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn. -C.S. Lewis

that man is pure genius.

hungry? grab a snickers.

honestly i HATE snicker bars, idk why? maybe its because im not a huge fan of chocolate..

but moving onnnn. i saw a commercial for it today and here was there hook;

"you aren't yourself when you're hungry"

woah! well hello deeper meaning!

snickers actually had a point here, i began thinking of how far i've come since being wrapped up in anorexia; gosh i really wasnt myself! i was a lifeless, depressed frame of a once energetic beautiful girl. ( i wish i could find this commercial; it was funny; google you disappoint me)

i convinced myself that i wasnt starving, desperately hungry, when in reality that was so far from the truth. gahhh i NEEDED to eat about 100 snickers (;

its funny when you find motivation in silly advertisements, but i'm glad i just happened to flip to this channel today!

overwhelmed

by the mass amount of junk food my great aunt bought us:

mind you; theres only 3 girls living in my house (:

so you bet my weaknesses made it into that cart!

Chips Ahoy! and ice creammmmm

yeeeeeeeee

whats your favorite junk food?

remember moderation is key (;

i forgot

i forgot that despite the fact that i'm super girly, i love freaking camping!

haha i think its just the atmosphere of getting away from the real world

p.s. i love all that unhealthy camp food too,

so bad, yet so good (;

childhood nostalgia: fluffernutter

in a bowl, duh :D

lets see? skiing is dangerous! what the heck, i feel like i got ran over by a bus, buttttt i was pretty good!

... on the bunny hill

ex? not so good, lets not go there

friends? amazing! love god, love life, love health

You are altogether beautiful, my darling,
beautiful in every way.

breakkk

yup, i havent been here in idk 4593830 days?

oh welllll...

wish me luck for i am going on a youth retreat in the poconos this weekend (more snow; gag me).

anxiety is at all time highs for this trip:

• catered meals (usually i'm ok with them but this is all junk food! we have the menus)
• never been skiing/snowboarding/tubing (brilliant time to try right)
• 3 days in the same location as my ex, who happens to be the pastor's son (we were serious for 2 years and uhm now he doesnt acknowledge me) i am STILL not over it..

wish me luck, i have a feeling i'm gonna need it!

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
