AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO UNDERSTANDS THIS?!!!!

Excuse me, but when I see stories written about overweight people and how they lost so much weight and they sure ‘showed their bullies’ - I get SO MAD.

It’s AMAZING they lost weight, but they definitely did not ‘show their bullies’ by losing weight - they accepted what all their bullies said and thought they’re not good enough when they’re overweight. (This is obviously not always the case, for some people it’s a wake up call and some people are hugely grateful for this.)

Of course losing weight is great, and I’m not saying that by losing weight they are weaker people and they gave into bullying etc. - but SHOWING their bullies would be to stand up then and there and say “I love myself, I love my body right now, fuck what you think.”

It makes me mad ‘cause it’s like these people are saying you can only ‘show your bullies’ by becoming thin and attractive. That’s bullshit. 

Bullies are awful people and you show them who’s boss by not being affected by what they say. You are 1000000000000000% better than them - and then some. 

Rant over.

I lost interest in everything, you know? All the things I used to love doing, I haven’t done them in months. Major pieces of me are missing and no one even sees that I’m fading away.

Had a very nonchalant photoshoot today lmao.

Literally got dressed and went to the gym AND DIDNT EVEN WORKOUT.

it’s just one of those days. I felt like a noodle. Bad body image days are the worst.

But on the bright side I got a chance to try some CRUSH SUPPLEMENTS. yes yes yes X 1,000,000.

I was so excited I ended up pushing through some cardio and calling it a day.

Tomorrow I will try again.

I love posts like this - it’s encouraging to know that you CAN have days where you feel shitty and you just try your best and that’s OKAY!

“They relapse because they’re scared of gaining weight”

Possible TW

Frankly, I think it’s incredibly important for people to realize that emotional triggers can be someone’s biggest issue in combating disordered thoughts.

I mean, I’m not even close to being at a healthy stage right now so I may not be the best example, but literally any time I’m the least bit stressed or angry I get a seemingly automatic urge to restrict or binge + purge.

So when authority figures spout this kind of information that only focuses on the shallow aspects of eating disorders and eating disorder recovery, it really frustrates me. Yes, a person might be scared of gaining weight, but WHY are they? More often than not, that fear is stemmed from a past trauma (ex: afraid to gain weight because they’d been bullied in the past) or something similar.

EATING DISORDERS ARE COMPLEX and it’s irresponsible for an authority figure to teach others that the illness is solely about a person’s weight, or the numbers, or body image, or the *gasp* fear of becoming fat (which is an issue all its own). I’m not denying that those can be components present in a person’s individual case, by the way, because they most certainly can be and commonly are.

Take-home message: you shouldn’t educate others by only teaching on-the-surface components of a complex illness; you need to inform about the deeper triggers, too. And this is coming from someone who developed her eating disorder initially believing it was just going to be a diet to become skinnier and feel prettier. I only learned later on that there were a lot of other aspects that tied into the development of my illness.

Here’s another progress pic since I haven’t posted one in a while! :D still 65 pounds down, scale hasn’t moved in a while but I’m okay with that. I can feel myself getting stronger and lighter and healthier and that’s all that matters :)

Recovery comes in stops and starts It is not a linear progression You will have difficult mornings And peaceful afternoons A frustrating day at work And kittens to curl up with when you get home Sometimes your journey will seem almost easy And sometimes you’ll want to give up entirely But even when it seems like Your world has fallen apart And you can barely keep moving forward Try to remember that No matter how bad it seems You’ll get there in the end And a minor setback Just paves the way to new success So just be patient These things take time I promise You’ll be just fine
