Yesterday was a bad day. I have an appointment with my plastic surgeon tomorrow that’s been weighing on me. I feel like I have no control over my body, which caused me to engage in disordered thoughts and behaviors (binging/over exercising). Today, I’m paying for it. Today, I’m practicing self love. I baked my favorite blueberry muffins and drank my favorite caramel vanilla coffee with French vanilla creamer. Today, I’m taking control of my eating disorder. Today, I’m letting myself feel anxious and depressed because it’s okay to feel. What I’m not doing is letting my anxiety, depression, eating disorder, or other emotions control me. I’m still in control of both my body and my mind. I’m strong, my diagnosis, my surgery, my recovery has made me strong and I refuse to fall back to the scared person I was before. I’m not scared, I’m ready for any challenge. Not every day will be good, but there will be good in every day. Yesterday was a lesson. #mastectomy #breastcancer #foobs #fightlikeagirl #mentalhealth #ednos #panicdisorder #anxiety #depression #agoraphobia #edrecovery #edwarrior #foodie #baking #muffin #blueberry #coffee #bopo #bodypositive #selflove #selfcare #stretchmarks #girlswithtattoos #adultswitheds #allblackeverything #loveyourself #positivevibes #positivity https://www.instagram.com/p/BoIAxCOFORr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xubssjlt56o6
As the festival comes to a close, our half-tonne princess is awarded the first place ribbon for being the berry best. Someone probably should have told her that this is what happens to the head of the festival… Oh well. They’ll roll her off, do some squeezing, and she’ll be good as new.
I’d like to thank everyone who took part in this! You’re all awesome and I hope to do another one of these some day. And, as promised, for blowing yesterday’s numbers away, you get the rear view! I hope it’s okay I’m not very experienced with rear views.
Looks like our princess is speechless! You all blew yesterday’s numbers away. Now comes the final day of the festival! Let’s see just how large you can make her. BONUS! If you can beat today’s 143 litres, I will also include a rear view!
“Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement. Get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Begin each day with a grateful heart. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible; never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.” ~Abraham Herschel
