it's been a good day☺️ (long post)
So, I have struggled with my body image since my eighth grade year (I've been graduated high school/in college for two), so that makes seven hard, insecure and depressing years. I am a recovered anorexic/bulimic. I used to use anything I could to make my body smaller..anything to make it take up "less room"; diets, weight loss pills, workout/meal plans, you name it, I've tried it. And if my body didn't look the way I wanted it, i would take it out on myself.
Lately (for almost the past year), my stomach has been giving me pain whenever I eat. I've ignored it and felt even more upset about how I look because I was bloated and in agony. Because of my bad habits, I'm now not able to eat a lot of the "normal" foods that people eat nowadays; pizza, cookies, pastas, dairy, etc. Basically anything processed. So over the past week, I've been eating strictly things that come straight from the ground- fruits and veggies. I know that doesn't sound like much, but it's making my body happy, and I'm not in pain, so that makes me happy. I've lost most of my bloating, and I'm finally getting to a point where I can love my body. My confidence is increasing incredibly. Tonight was a good confidence night (and it's even that time of the month for me...Aunt Flo and confidence never mix well😂)
In short, do what makes your body AND your mind feel good. Listen.to.your.body.
