4 years ago today I uploaded a video challenge titled “24 Hours Of Eating My Fear Foods.” All throughout my high school years and college, my biggest fear WAS food.
I became bulimic by age 15, and when I look back on my journey in High School journey, I realize just how unhappy I was, and just how stuck I was living with a brain I felt worked day in and day out to prove I wasn’t good enough.
I snuck away to the bathroom to throw up multiple times per day. I would starve myself for days on end while nobody knew. I was embarrassed, ashamed, and it felt like I had no way out.
My journey to recovery started when I dropped out of college to focus on recovery. I enrolled iN and spent 2018/2019 diving deep into the mind body connection, and healing my relationship with food. It worked!💕
I used to post a lot about body image, but realized through my healing journey that there was such a greater need among young adults that goes far beyond just the body.
And If sharing my story, and my continual stories of overcoming the darkest times in my life can help somebody out there who doesn’t feel good enough, it was worth it.
So cheers to overcoming, eating your fear foods, and making peace with your body..❤️
