My goal with this blog is to introduce greater comfort into my life, specifically regarding food. Food has been a struggle for me since age eleven. I am a recovering bulimic. I'd like to keep my mind geared towards recovery through the celebration of what keeps me going; nourishment. Whether it be an apple with peanut butter, a salad, or a greasy slice of pizza, food is to be celebrated and enjoyed. It should not be used as a form of self-punishment. Nor should it be used to disengage from feeling. I have learned, and am still learning how to accept this, how to accept taking care of myself. Though currently struggling, I hope this can become what I need to express and reinforce how essential it is that I treat myself with kindness, and accept food for what it is.
