Conquering food addiction.
pro-recovery:
Sitting across a Starbucks table from Michael Prager a few weeks ago, I’d never have guessed that he once weighed 365 pounds. Or that he’s an addict.
I met with Prager, a 53-year-old author, journalist, blogger and stay-at-home dad who lives in Arlington, Mass., to talk about his self-published book, “Fat Boy, Thin Man” (2010). It’s a clear-headed exposition of a life in which...
Today.
So today has been really good. I recovered from my breakdown yesterday and moved on to better things. My cutting prep marks are gone thank god and I took it upon myself to have a good day today. I was productive and ate properly and things were good. Had a bit of a worry this morning since I just *couldn’t* get full! I kept eating little bits at a time, though, and eventually I got full,...

lostwitheveryfallengrain-deacti asked: You are a beautiful, amazing human being and deserve SO much more than the misery you have at the moment. Nobody deserves to be unhappy, always remember that. Of course you turn to those things in your hardest times because your brain has learnt that it thinks they are your coping mechanisms. We are unfortunate people in that our brains tell us to cut, starve and binge where other peoples'...
voodoomamajuejue asked: Keep being strong. if its been almost 2 years, let it be lonnger. Im a cutter myself. I know there is no way out of that feeling when all you want is an out. but believe me, in the end you'll feel so much better knowing you didnt, maybe not now , or even an hour later, in the long run you will. please keep being strong. hold ice, get a rubber band, jump up and down do jumping jacks !...
Cutting.
In a very, very dark place right now. I have never cried this much. Never. I haven’t cut in almost two years, but guess what I just tried to do? I feel like such a hypocrite since I try to hard to help people stop and help people recover, but what do I always turn to in my hardest times? Cutting and starving and binging.
I couldn’t bring myself to cut…I tried, but I...
Hurt.
On a side, but just as important note, I absolutely hate when I feel like I’ve hurt other people. I seem to do it a lot lately, too…and I just can’t stand it. I know I make it harder on my family, my friends, my girlfriend…and I hate it. But at the same time, I don’t know what to do…
I wish I could only hurt myself still. I know that’s an awful way of...
Lost.
I’m so lost and confused about what to do. Today has just been…awful. I feel so empty and helpless, which of course I’m not helpless. I need to take responsibility for my life. It’s just….really, really hard. And I feel like such a hypocrite because just recently my girlfriend and I had a talk and she agreed to try hard to get out of the exact place that I’m...
Eating disorders aren't glamorous.
inmixedcompany:
Pro-Ana and all things and people associated with such make me sick.
It glamorizes death and emaciation. That’s not something to boast about. Anyone with an eating disorder could tell you how miserable they really are.
Some people have a big butt. Some people have...

Be different.
Be beautiful.
And be yourself.
Alex is one of the most beautiful people I know and I wish she would listen to her own lovely words.

My dear followers! I am so very sorry I have been so absent lately! School has taken a great toll on my schedule this week and it just seems like I’ve had absolutely no time at all! I promise to be posting more this weekend and give you updates and such :3
In other news! I conquered my biggest fear foods—donuts! Sure, they aren’t uber healthy, but they are okay time to...
