*Strategically tilts head to cover up spots* Feeling like a red velvet cupcake and I’m here for it.

Completely unrelated photo but this is all I’ve got so bear with me 😅 . For those who don’t know, over the past four years I’ve gone from being underweight due to under-eating and over-exercising, all the way to overweight from binge eating and hating every single inch of myself. All those years, I was a slave to my eating disorders. Heck, I even had to quit uni because the food obsession and self-hatred on top of uni work got too overwhelming to handle. In the midst of it all, I never thought it would be possible for me to overcome of my extreme behaviours. But today, I can proudly say that I can’t even remember when was the last time I binged because I no longer give a crap. . This is the most free, content and normal I’ve ever felt in a long time. Some days I still hate myself, but I’ve learnt to lean into the pain since it’s all part of the full-colour spectrum that is life. . I don’t spend every single waking moment thinking about food anymore. I now exercise because it genuinely makes me feel good, not because I want to look a certain way. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want and don’t go crazy. My life isn’t consumed by my eating disorders anymore. I actually have time to spend on my interests, my friends and my family. Most days I’m comfortable with my body. Other days I learn to sit with the negative thoughts and let them pass. . I guess this is more-so a reminder to myself on the not-so-great days that I deserve more credit than I give myself. But hopefully, it’s also an encouragement to whoever is struggling with an eating disorder or mental illness that recovery is a beautiful thing. No matter where you are on your journey, you’re doing amazing and I believe in you 💕

I’m now 50 shades of tan.
