Life without Anorexia

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

My life at the moment is completely different to how it once was. I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia and depression as well as struggling with self harm and overexercising. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
And since 2012 i have been declared healthy from my eating disorder.

I have been blogging for 7 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 now blog about recovery, my life, veganism and positivity!

If you have any questions leave them in the comment section as i am much quicker at answering there, otherwise you can always send an email: [email protected]

Photo an hour

A post which i have wanted to do for a long time is this Photo an hour post. You've wanted more personal posts so here you see how a day (an average Sunday) looks for me :)

Woke up at 8.15am, drank water, hot lemon water, took my pills, washed my face etc
 Ate breakfast at 8.45 am


9am: Getting ready to go to the gym, preparing with some selfies ;);)

10am: Workout time or selie time? Who knows.. it was an empty gym anyway!!


11am: Still working out ;) Though now im filiming some body weight exercises you can do at home (do you want me to post the video or is it triggering?)

12pm: Just eaten lunch and now drinking coffee and water while the storm rolls by.

1pm: The storm has passed and its time for a walk with Daisy!

2pm: Blogging and emailing, though not getting alot done. This weather just exhausts me.

3pm (though actually it was 2.59pm ? I didnt know whether it counted as 2 or 3!!!?) eating popcorn!

4pm: Lying in bed and scrolling through Tumblr. I love it :) Though no one is active on Sunday, haah!

5pm: My cravings took control over me and i walked to the shop for Chocolate!!! (I almost came out of the shop with chocolate covered nuts, pick n mix, atkins bars, cookies and a Ben and Jerrys or two... Hahaha i thought it was a little extreme, but this is the reason why i SHOULDNT go to the shop hungry, and especially not when im craving chocolate because then i almost always leave the shop with a little more than what i had planned ;))


6pm: Finally eating my long craved chocolate covered nuts (need i say delicious?!) Ohhh, and i only paid half price for it - the cashier guy sort of held onto the bag while weighing it so it didnt weigh as much ;);) That made me very happy!



7pm - Needed a new series to begin watching so going to begin at season one, epsiode one of Desperate Housewives (ive pretty much seen them all but not in order!) & preparing and eating dinner!


8pm: Watching Desperate housewives and time for night snack :)

There you have my day in pictures :) (I decided to only do from 8am to 8pm) :)

Did you like this type of post? (alot of pictures! hahah)

    I`d love to see this video. How often do you repeat the single exercise like how many push ups do you do?

    Could you share an example for a whole exewrcise session? Like disclaiming for trigger warning, so who feels affected won`t read?
