PM me if you would like to discuss either of these or would just like to talk about eating disorder recovery!

Life without ED was wonderful. I loved it. I could totally relate and the chapters were small enough and cut right to the point that I didn't get bored or whatever.
I am going to look into no body's perfect now too!!
A song that really helps me is Suddenly by superchick. I don't know it seems to fit.
She feels lost in her own life
Treading water just to keep from slipping under
And she wonders if she's where she's supposed to be
Tired of trying to do it right
Her dreams are just too far away to see how steps she's making
Might be taking her to who she'll be
And suddenly it isn't what it used to be
And after all this time it worked out just fine
And suddenly I am where I'm supposed to be
And after all the tears I was supposed to be here
She feels locked in her own life
Scared of what she might lose if she moves away from who she was
And she's afraid of being free
There's a way she knows is right
She can't feel the things she knows
And so each step she's taking is a step of faith toward who she'll be
And here where the night is darkest black
She feels the fear and the light is farthest back
And through her tears she can't see the dawn is coming
Skies will clear and the light will find her where she's always been.
