Just here to be your pain-in-the-ass reminder that recovery is important on the weekends too
.
Sometimes the lack of structure on weekends can cause us to default to stalling when it comes to nourishing ourselves.
.
If this is you-if you find yourself falling into eating disorder behaviors on the weekends-please know you are NOT alone.
.
I suggest making a little plan o’ attack-write out a little structure for Saturday and Sunday-after all, research suggests we are 42% more likely to do something if we write it down mmmk? ✏️
.
Make sure you add meals and snacks in there (the amount you know your bod needs. Not fewer because of some arbitrary term we’ve come up with for combining two meals *lookin at you brunch*)
.
Try to keep your view of the lists flexible and fluid. Your plans can change throughout the weekend (of course) But nourishing your bod is important no matter what plans look like. And don’t forget to add some self-care in there!
.
Happy Saturday all
Parkrun Saturday in my favourite place. Cheltenham is the prettiest #parkrun but not the fastest ♀️ I hate hills (even little ones ) .
A course PB in this beautiful weather ♀️ .
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend. .

Because what better way to kick off your first day of summer than with breakfast in bed watching b99going up to mullingar to see my fave @kaspiequeen & ngl anything that changes my routine like that makes me hellaaaaaa anxious & usually leads to skipping meals beforehand due to anxiety about not knowing what I’ll be eating later in the day orrrrr just leads me to cancelling trips altogether but not today!!!! Because that’s a direct example of anorexia quite literally stopping you from living my life and it’s already done that enough I can’t let it anymore!!! Ngl here’s a part of me (anorexia) that wants me to just cancel going down because I’ve had breakfast & want to stick to my usual routine at home BUTTTTT wtf SORCHA wants to go & have a fab day with Jess so that is what I shall do!!! I NEED to stop letting anorexia stop me from living my life. It’s done it far too much already. So anorexia can piss off xoxo

“Always make time for the things that make you feel alive”
———————
Studying. It has always been a trap for me, as grades were (and yea tbh are) very important to me. When I got sick it was incredibly hard for me to focuss on the subjects rather than on what I would be eating and when. I remember one specific time, last year during summer finals. I was studying for my very last exam and I had a very hard time as the dinner we were supposed to have wouldn’t be able to prepare. I cried, screamed that my parents couldn’t do this to me and I begged them to give me that for one last time. Mom got outside with me and tried to calm me down, without getting mad. We sat on the swings in the garden for half an hour and everything began to slow down. I don’t know how I did it, but I managed to pass every exam. This exam period however, exactly one year later, is going to be filled with loads of snacks, tea, damnyum meals, some fun in between and hopefully less stress. I’m starting next Friday and the studying is actually going pretty well! My bf sometimes comes over, I’m not freaked out if I’m not ready yet and I’m making time for my family and friends. Let’s face those exams together my warrior, but most of all, let’s turn our faces into the directions WE love the most ❤️ #goal #recovery #anorexiarecovery #anarecovery #anawho #fight #edfighter #ed #edrecovery #eatingdisorderrecovery #strongnotskinny #edwarrior #food #lovefood #foodisgood #foodisfuel #prorecovery #hungry #yum #nourishtoflourish #positivity #mentalhealth #healthy #healing #recoveryisworthit #blog #selflove #bodypositivity #win
I rely an awful lot on calorie counting. I’ve forgotten what it’s like to actually eat a meal without knowing the exact calories it contains . I struggle eating food without being able to weigh it out first and a huge amount of my time is spent planning and preparing meals based on their calories. What comes so naturally to most people feels so foreign to me. With the help of my therapist I am trying to tackle this and gradually relearn to plan my meals based on their portion size, rather than focusing on the calories they contain. I saw this plate in town this morning and thought it would be useful to hopefully help me to relearn what normal portions look like again

#mentalhealthawarenessmonth for as long as i can remember ive struggled with my body, avoiding dressing room mirrors or dreading beach season. it all seemed to be normal insecurities felt by many teenage girls, but somewhere in 2018 things took a dramatic turn. slowly my body became my biggest obsession, my greatest fear, and my worst enemy. food and exercise started to be my primary concerns, and i turned off my emotions, abandoned my social life, forgot my passions and my joy to devote myself to restriction.
my weight loss was praised, until it wasn’t. after being met with concerns from my brilliant family and friends, who watched me (literally) become a half version of myself, i worked up the strength to ask for help.
in April, i was finally diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, and thus began my current period of recovery.
never in my wildest imagination could i have foreseen how much of a battle eating disorder recovery truly is. every day, at least 6 times a day, i must make the choice to get better, to do the right thing, to fight my disordered intuition. recovery is all consuming. every thought becomes a debate, wins can feel like a defeat, and frustration and confusion have become my default emotions. it is incredibly mentally exhausting, and very physically uncomfortable, as my damaged body begins to receive what i have been depriving it of for so long. food and love.
i could never face this journey on my own, and it is only with the support of the many amazing people in my life that i was even able to take the steps necessary to confront the issue. not only that, but i am extremely lucky to have the resources to be able to receive professional treatment, and have amazing treatment teams in NYC and SF.
eating disorders do not discriminate. again i am lucky in that i fit the mold: female, white, young, and underweight. this is, more often than not, NOT the identity of an eating disorder sufferer, but it’s the image we often receive, making it easier for someone like me to identify the issue. eating disorders live in the mind, and we cannot wait for them to manifest in the physical deterioration of the body to take action. #edrecovery #edwarrior
MY FIRST EVER BIG MAC
-
WELL YESTERDAY WAS AMAZING !! I faced my biggest challenge in recovery yet ! I ate like @lucille_maciver For a day AND I SMASHED THE CRAP OUTTA IT!!!!! and don’t you worry I filmed it all so it will be going up on my YouTube channel soon ! ( link in bio) -
So for dinner yesterday I had a McDonald’s and Lucille is known for her McDonald’s haha so her usual order is a Big Mac, large fries , a small irn-bru and a triple chocolate Cookie ( or muffin) unfortunately they didn’t have irn-bru at the McDonald’s i went to :((( but I got a water instead !! SOO I HAVE NEVER HAD A BIG MAC BEFORE LET ALONE LARGE FRIES !!! I was so frightened of having a Big Mac , i think it’s just Coss it’s double burger and buns AND the fact it’s called BIG !!! But do you know what, I actually ordered everything without looking at the calories !! And I ordered it and enjoyed every last bite !!! I actually surprisingly liked the Big Mac !!! It’s not my favourite as I’m a chicken nugget kinda gal but it was yummy !! AND WORTH IT !! Because in life you aren’t going to enjoy everything you eat and it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t worth it!!! -
Anyways last night I went to see Aladin with a few of my friends at the cinema wow it was such a good movie !! Sooo obviously some of my friends got snacks to take in !! I got a regular Pepsi Max ( i think it was £3.50 ) AND I GOT A BAG OF PICK AND MIX because my friend did as well ! only downside is it cost me £8.64 !!!!!! £8.64 FOR SOME FRICKIN SWEETS WHATS THAT ALL ABOUT !! I think next time I’ll be sticking with a good old wilkos pick and mix where it’s not based of weight !! -
Aaaaah Im so proud of myself haha yesterday was tough but so so so worth it !!
