back to basics

so where have i been bloggers?

struggling. thats where; struggling.

so i've been thinking a lot lately about how to handle life and this is what i've come up with

back to basics

#1 simplify

pizza

= cheese + sauce (tomatoes) + bread

= dairy + grain + vegetable

= <3

why treat it as something else? the only power fear foods have is what you give it.

i'm not gonna be afraid of an italian specialty ever again..

#2 do indulge

never ever turn down a scoop of ice cream ... not only did it cause me to miss out on a fun time with the girls but it only triggered mmm... about 30 scoops of ice cream later on.

moderation is key, my friends.

#3 love yourself

probably the hardest one to comprehend, but anything made in God's image, is perfect. YOU are beautiful in His eyes. Lovelovelove.

#4 trust others

my nutritionist obviously isnt gonna make me fat? so yes, miss dietician, i will try your meal plan (:

#5 no excuses

nothing in life should compromise your health. i never again will let a b/p pass as an nbd (no big deal)

so much to catch up on!

reaaaaaaallyy?

have i honestly neglected my blog again?

... i did, i'm sorry.

this has been my life in one sentence.

sleep, eat, school, eat, work, eat, sleep, work, work, work, work.

get it?

semesters almost over so i definitely will find sometime!

cannot wait to move to VA BEACH FOR BIBLE COLLEGE!

yayayayy sand!

i'll leave ya to think about this!

when God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better..

strangerr

life as an adult

to tell you the truth, i dont feel older! i was hoping my eighteenth birthday would be magical. i'd wake up and FEEL like an adult, but nope i'm still my goofy self..

and that would be my sissy..

growing up is more of a... mm process?

i guess i was responsible like an adult and did my classwork allllll day! (wrote fifteen page essay HOLLA)

dined like a responsible adult with a well balanced lunch:

butternut squash soup with parmesan, laughing cow, whole wheat flatbread

THAT WAS THE BEST CANNED SOUP EVER! thank you target for that amazing birthday present in a jar..

and went to work like a responsible ADULT employee (:

after a long shift i came home with some great tips and an awesome surprise:

BALLOONS BIGGER THAN MY BODY!

yeeee so maybe not all boys are jerks!

... maybe

to be continued!

woo 18

18 years of age today. craaaaazzzzyyyyyyyy

VISA! muahahaha

i feel like this was yesterday...

back later with a big post!

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
