I honestly completely understand what you mean , I’m in recovery right now and I do miss my smaller body but then I keep reminding my self how miserable I was when I was that small. You’ve got to remover it’s a few months of discomfort for a ,I’ve time of happiness ❤️❤️we can do this girl keep calm keep going and eat cake 🥰🥰
Food is our friend , when I used to restrict I alienated so many people all for a number on a scale that made me feel miserable anyway as it was never low enough , stay strong and enjoy your life 👍
I think maybe there’s a bit of subtlety to how much focus is on whatever we’re struggling with. Sometimes there needs to be more when our problems are getting worse so that we don’t loose track and sometimes when we are doing better there needs to be less focus so we can feel more comfortable where we are at. I think everyone has always got to find the balance to whatever kind of life they lead. Other people have to lend to that balance too. On the worst days where you struggle the most it’s important to remember that you know you’re going to have a few days like this and you can handle it. It can feel really hard on those days, but you will pull through. We are always stronger than we feel. We end up looking back and wondering how we ever did it. Because we’re amazing, that’s how.
I don’t think u even understand how pretty u are like each time you post a new video u just seem to be glowing even more! Thank u so much for carrying on posting the vids, u r such a strong girl and we can both get through this and kick anorexia’s arse 😂❤️❤️xxx
ur flying through recovery gal! u should be sooo proud, you're more with it when ur filming, ur speaking full sentances without stopping all the time! a lot of changes aren't physical!!
Yes people keep telling me I don't look different but I think it's so important when you feel down about weight gain don't focus on whether you have gained but tell yourself it will all settle and trust your body to reach its set point you need to not worry about any off it well done to you and well done for helping other people with sharing your correct advice don't wry about the bloat it's not permanent people
Hey, Jessica. I think what you're doing is great. It takes so much strenght to allow all your cravings and accept weight gain. You're such a powerful warrior and the fact that you're sharing your experience and helping others is wonderful. I just wanted to give you some advice about motivation. I think you shouldn't make your experiences with your boyfriend one of the biggest motivations because you never know what could happen in life. For example, if you guys get in a argument or even breakup (whick I hope never happens!!!) It could affect your eating and you need to make sure that it wouldn't! You need to be doing this only for yourself, not for your family or friends. Your body is the most important thing and you need to take care of it no matter what, even when you hate how it looks. I wish you good luck because I know how hard it is (I'm currently gaining a lot of weight too) but we both will beat this illness, I'm sure. Life is just too short to waste it by not fueling our bodies probably.
Watching this to cope after waking up from a nightmare where I gained [xx] kg, it spooked me and I’ve been scared to eat today but this helped. youre such an encouragement
Hmmm hard question. before to be honest i thought it would be a lot easier but atm its very tough but i know it will be worth it and no matter what i cant go back
You are looking so beautiful wow! I'm going through a similar journey myself at the moment and I struggle seeing my body changing so much but watching your videos is really helping me because I think you are looking more gorgeous with every video you post and it just helps me to understand that other people don't see you as you see yourself and it inspires me to keep going so thank you!!!xxx
thank you for answering! honestly, i did not notice any major changes in editing if we talk about video itself, but the cover of it is really pretty. also, you are looking absolutely amazing. i can never say enough how much i am proud of you.
Very useful Q&A, thx. :) I began my recovery 5 days ago (after 10 yrs anorexia/bulimia), because I want beeing a healty and happy woman again, and I want enjoy my life in the future.
have you tried to lie down with legs on the wall when you are bloated? It can help the cramps but I struggle so much with that I tried Pilates but it is not enough when I am 6 month pregnant tanks for the video
I totally feel you girl! I just had some cake and I felt sooo fat! I literally started crying... I drank a bottle of water and it helped me feel better, but it's still so difficult! :((
I know this question is not for me but absolutely yes! Weight loss is usually just one of the symptoms and it doesn't mean that you're not sick if you're not underweight. You can still damage your health by doing ed behaviours at any weight. And you don't need to look sick to ask for help. Everyone deserves recovery.
@@lydyma6225 thank you for answering I’ve been having hard time explaining myself since I’m still in the ‘normal’ BMI. I also don’t feel that I deserve the help but thank. Probably should speak to my GP.
I love your quote: "Calories are energy... why do we want to spend our whole lives getting as little energy as possible?" very powerful!!

Soo true. memories of our sick bodies can be so haunting but that's the point! they need to be memories not out life. we can do this

I'm 19 months in recovery and still extremely bloated. I feel it'll never end.
It took me over 2 years before it settled down (and i only restrected few months before starting recovery!). Dont give up, it gets easier!
Watching this to cope after waking up from a nightmare where I gained [xx] kg, it spooked me and I’ve been scared to eat today but this helped. youre such an encouragement
your eyes are radiating and full of colour! gorgeous. what were your thoughts or conditions going all in before? are you scared of falling back?
Hmmm hard question. before to be honest i thought it would be a lot easier but atm its very tough but i know it will be worth it and no matter what i cant go back

You are glowing - what an inspiration🥺
Thank you for the inspiration and advice! ❤️

but I struggle so much with that
I tried Pilates but it is not enough when I am 6 month pregnant
tanks for the video
Hahaha I love how you say 17 degrees is warm!!! I’m from Australia and to me that’s so coldddddd 😂😂😂. Give me a 35 degree day any day pls
Ahhh you're so lucky to live in Australia!! It's currently freezing where I live😂
Mate im in new Zealand I'm your bloody neighbour and 17 degrees is the hottest weather we will get normally 13 is a hot day
Trust in the process
So proud off you well done xx
Darling, will you come back to recording again?
I believe in you ❤
I totally feel you girl! I just had some cake and I felt sooo fat! I literally started crying... I drank a bottle of water and it helped me feel better, but it's still so difficult! :((
This random but can you have an eating disorder and be in the ‘normal’ weight range ?
I know this question is not for me but absolutely yes! Weight loss is usually just one of the symptoms and it doesn't mean that you're not sick if you're not underweight. You can still damage your health by doing ed behaviours at any weight. And you don't need to look sick to ask for help. Everyone deserves recovery.
@@lydyma6225 thank you for answering I’ve been having hard time explaining myself since I’m still in the ‘normal’ BMI. I also don’t feel that I deserve the help but thank. Probably should speak to my GP.
do you still work with camhs and are you at a ‘healthy’ weight? x
Yes and Yes. I am very lucky as I have an amazing fully supportive dietitian
Some people have bloating forever as a side affect but even people without eds bloat! How is your sister doing, have you inspired eacchover? X
You are amazing
Awe Thank you!!!
how many days does recovery take i mean how many days to be all in its so scary
Anyone else feel this sense of furious anger at the patriarchy in recovery ?
Multi vitamins
are you in education?
