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: lifewithoutanorexia@hotmail.com

Birthday brunch

For my birthday treat - usually its lunch or dinner but this year it was brunch! We went to a new place which none of us had been to before but it turned out to be really nice and cosy.
  It was myself, my sister, mum, step dad, my 2 half brothers, my aunt and her partner! The food served was lots of different things - yoghurt, granola, muslie, beans, eggs, bacon, bread, salmon, couscous etc and even waffles. However the waffle maker started burning (i.e it was on fire) which got a little scary so we ended up not being able to make any waffles... but then after my 3rd portion they came with a new waffle maker.... and i really wanted a waffle but there just wasnt room in my stomach for it.. :( Kind of sad, but i knew it wasnt possible to stretch my stomach any further... next time!!!

But there was so much other yumminess i ate - LOTS of fresh bread, salmon, watermelon, yoghurt, coffee etc etc
 
It was so lovely to be there with my family and enjoy all the delicious food!

















Now its time to finish the cleaning so that every inch of the apartment sparkles and get ready for a new week and a new apartment tomorrow.... *eeek*
