So far today, I’ve: Slept in Meandered around IKEA Talked to my mom and brother on the phone Worked out with @codypronozuk Enjoyed an iced americano in an Epsom salt bath (currently) I’ve accomplished absolutely nothing on my to-do list, and that is a-okay with me. Lazy Sundays are a win in my book. First week back to work ✔️ Ready for a lot more to come.

Sometimes you just want want a blueberry waffle @ 8 pm, ya know? Featuring my homemade strawberry jam that is out of this world 🍓🍓🍓

SUMMER ily Turkey burger: ground turkey (93/7), garlic salt, pink salt, pepper & oregano Sweet potato fries: sliced & spritzed with avo oil, sprinkled with TJ’s all purpose seasoning salt And of course, can’t forget my homemade pickles! Cucumbers sliced & soaked in ACV diluted with water and cayenne pepper for about a week. Straight 🔥

🌟 Discipline > Motivation 🌟 SO I’m writing a book! Yep, you read that right! If you’ve missed it in my stories, I started this project a few weeks ago during this period of “funemployment” (that’s coming to an end, btw) because I needed something to do. I’ve been suggested many a time to write a book, and HEY! What better time to do it than now? I’m combining my original recovery blog (which I compiled into over 150 pages of single-spaced writing 😶) with current insight and hindsight into my world during those years of recovery, plus my life now! It’s been an awesome thing to work on, but MAN it’s taken me back. In rereading my old journal entries, I’ve been reminded of just how far I’ve come. I don’t only mean physically, either — the biggest transformation was definitely the mental one. What I keep realizing, over and over again, is how long I worked without seeing any progress. It’s painful to read how hard I was trying to overcome the ED voice in my head, by doing what I kept being told to do (following my meal plan, going to therapy, seeing my dietician, adhering to exercise restrictions, trying new challenges, etc.) without experiencing any relief. But then somehow, I got HERE — to this place of really, and I mean REALLY enjoying & experiencing life to the full, life WITHOUT an eating disorder! For years, I went through the motions of recovery. I put effort into doing what I knew was healthy for me, even though it wasn’t what my brain told me I wanted. I can’t pinpoint when everything switched, but eventually, those new habits started to override the old ones. At some point, the new patterns I was training my body to do, became what it desired. I know a lot of people struggle with motivation, whether it’s to lose weight, gain weight, eat more healthfully, think differently, etc, but here’s what I want to tell you: Motivation is fleeting. Motivation isn't what’s going to carry you through to your goal, discipline is. Doing the habit you want to create over, and over, and over again. It might take months, or it might take years (it took me EIGHT!), but it WILL happen. Keep doing what you need to do, until that becomes what you want to do.
