Life without Anorexia

My motto is 'Dont let the sadness of your past & the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present'

I am a generally happy girl who loves running, going to the gym and eating food!! Though my life has been very different.
I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia & purging tendencies & over exercising. I was depressed and self harmed. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
After alot of struggles, lots of ups and downs, suicide attempts, tears, anxiety, panic and never thinking i would be healthy.
I am now declared healthy from anorexia nervosia.

I have been blogging for 4 years, and my whole journey is written in my posts. I now represent healthy and happiness. I want to show anyone struggling that it is possible to recover, no matter how hard it may seem.

I am happy and healthy and living my life. Going to school, meeting friends and trying to find myself in this world.

I write about my daily life, but also try to write posts about how it was when i was sick, advice and tips.
I am open and friendly, so dont be scared about writing a post or sending me an email at: [email protected]

Frriiddday!!

I can honestly say, i have had a really good day today!!! ^_^

When i got to school this morning, and walked to my locker all my friends stood there and began singing happy birthday to me... :) And they had even decorated my locker!! ^_^ Its a sort of tradition we have whenever one of us has a birthday... and if its there birthday during the weekend, then we sing/decorate the locker the day before or after their birthday!
    We've also decided that all my friends - or those who can come anyway will come to my place on Sunday for dinner :) Which makes me really happy :) Though i guess it will be - drink in moderation on Saturday, so that i dont host a dinner hungover (?) That was the main reason why i wasn planning on having it on Sunday.... But as i am not a fan of alcohol, im guessing i wont be hungover. Though of course a few drinks will be drunk..

Anyway, i had 2 classes before it was lunch. And the lunch today was sooo good ! For the past 2 weeks ive been longing to eat salmon, just never actually bothered to buy any... so today, when it was salmon for lunch i was soo happy! And of course, i piled my plate high with salmon... Hahah, eating like i have 4 stomachs or something!!
   
During my last class my whole class stood up and sang happy birthday to me (also a tradition on someones birthday!)  Made me soo happy :) I really do love my class!!

 After school i sat in the computer room for 90 minutes working on a new assignment we had gotten today, so that i wouldnt have to worry about it during the weekend.
    Then my mum picked me up as we were going food shopping to buy ingredients for the cake, food for the party tomorrow and then for my dinner on Sunday... i.e A long list of ingredients!!
  
When we got to the supermarket my blood sugar dropped and i realised how hungry i was... so i went into the sports store and bought a celsius & a questbar... (I love how they are easier to find now!)
    Perfect snack to give me the energy to walk around a supermarket for a long while!!!

I ran around the supermarket, getting all the ingredients i needed... but i must say, i felt a little embarrassed when i was holding 4 packets of oreos, 4 packets of fingers (biscuits) and other sweets. And then coming with 3 colas and more sweets and crisps....haahha, healthy much?


^^ My step dad holding the receipt ... (VERY LONG!!!)

And then we drove home and unpacked all the food, and my mum had bought my birthday dress today (!!) Not the one i had wanted, as that dress had sold out everywhere (:() But the other one is really pretty aswell, so im not complaining :)

And im just after baking my 2 cakes.... though 1 of them has to be decorated tomorrow!!
Im so excited!!! :)

I hope you have all had a really good day :)
