Major Breakthroughs Almost 1 Year in Recovery
I’ve been leaning on this community through my first year of recovery, mainly in hard times. I wanted to come here to celebrate a major breakthrough I’ve been having this week with self love towards myself and my body 🥲
It’s easier to challenge the voice that says my body isn’t thin enough to wear my fitted workout clothes around the neighborhood for a walk or to class. I’ve definitely been covering up in the winter but now it’s too hot to hide and I’m just….doing it.
I’m back in work out classes in front of mirrors and this time…I’m like oo! Look at that little muscle peaking through my recovery retention. I feel so strong and that always makes me feel sexy!
I’m definitely noticing my body is switching and changing and rearranging the retention HOWEVER a few months ago I came here and was like PLEASE when is it going to change and now I’m like oh it’s changing? Ok. It’s very background now so I feel I achieved radical acceptance (hallelujah).
I’m a couple weeks away from the anniversary of my first appointment with my ED nutritionist and I’m just so so happy that I stuck it through and got to this point where *most days* my body and the way it looks is background noise, my ability to move and be strong is something that strengthens my confidence. Hopefully, no more hiding from here on out but I’m just grateful for the breakthroughs and wanted to share :)
