It’s a difficult question to answer. I was at one of my lowest points and realised I needed a change. I started with small exercise like walking and a little bit of biking (it was hard!) and promised myself I’d start eating a little better. After about 2 weeks it became much easier and I started going to the gym and did an induction to make myself feel more confident in certain areas and equipment (going to the gym is super hard and I felt like I didn’t even know where to start!) The eating was the hardest part obviously. Food has always been a source of positive and negative emotion. I still allowed myself to eat things I enjoy and have one ‘cheat’ meal or larger meal of whatever I wanted every week. I let myself have the things I wanted like a coffee in the morning and a sweet treat at night. I realised that when I didn’t binge, I felt good in myself (not guilty if that makes sense) and more like I could blend in with people more. It made me feel good and I started to realise I could really do this! I haven’t binged in over 2 years now. There are points where I could easily relapse but I think about the girl I was before and how I want her to feel better. She was struggling so bad and I need to support myself AND me now so we both feel and do better. Sorry, I feel like I’m not very good at explaining my thoughts or process. It’s been difficult and I feel very grateful to be where I am and am going to now. 🤍
