I don’t have to like my body, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like that I have to eat, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like the discomfort that comes with meals, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like the struggle of fighting purge urges, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like recovery, but I need to accept it.

I don’t have to like myself, but I need to accept myself.

–Inspired by wise words from my dietitian

it's okay to eat.

it's okay to eat if you've already eaten today.

it's okay to eat if you haven't excerised today.

it's okay to eat if you don't feel like you've "earned" it.

it's okay to eat whatever you want. food has no inherent morality attached to it. eat a cookie, a salad, some noodles - whatever you want. we're trained to see food as the enemy, but it should be so much more! food keeps us alive, and allows us to do every wonderful thing we do every day. food should be your friend. you don't have to earn any type of food, or any at all. food is a necessity.

it's okay to eat. period.
