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!

Fitness life....

Today i have had a well needed rest day!! My day started with a walk with Daisy (which is standard... when you have a dog, you gotta go for walks. Though of course on my rest days i dont go as far or as fast as when i say go for a powerwalk!)

Then i began cleaning and sorting my clothes and realised that i have an addiction to workout clothes... Ok, well ive always known that i buy more workout clothes than normal clothes. But i think this problem is getting out of hand!! haha

^^Can you tell which brand is my favourite?


^^All my workout clothes.... You can never have too many right?

Now that im on my break, apart from when i have too dress up for the celebrations, im only wearing workout clothes... they are so much more comfortable!!

After i was done sorting my clothes and feeling some sort of inner proudness over my collection of clothes, i realised i hadnt even eaten breakfast (and it was 11am at this point.). So i fixed a huge breakfast, and even ate some of the pancakes i made yesterday!!

Then i spent some time with my sister before i decided i was going to spend the day baking, loads of healthy treats! something which i know my mum and P will be thankful for as well.
    Tired of the huge amounts of chocolate and cake we've eaten over the past week, so now there will be healthy treats for when the sugar cravings kick in!

My mum and sister are planning on going on a detox.... im wondering if i should do the same. But the fact that i would have to give up my quark, yoghurt and questbars.... well, im doubting i could even complete a day of a detox!! haha 
  Ill just drink my green tea and hope that helps ;)

Ive spent the past few hours making A healthy orange cheesecake, a salted caramel cheesecake, a healthy coconut and chocolate cake and a healthy lemon sponge cake, and also this 3 layer nut bar thing, which ive tasted a little of and tastes amazing!!






I dont really haev any pictures of what i baked (as the lighting was bad) but im guessing you all want the recipes`? Yes or no? :) haha (Do i even need to ask?)

My sister took a few photos while i baked.... haahha (*flattering* -_-)



^^(That one i took myself! LOL)

After tasting all the yummy treats ive made, i now have a bit of a 'food coma' and think i will be spending the rest of my evening in bed!! ^_^ haha

How has everyones day been`? Soon its 2014....Exicting!!!

  1. Oh my with those sports clothes! I just went to an actual gym for the first time on Friday, and I (=my mom.. :D) had bought one top and a sports bra + fitness shoes from the sales. I had thought of making it for a while with only them..
    Like seriously, they're the only honest sports clothing that I have (besides running shoes and very mini shorts that I usually wear as my pyjama pants..) ! Haha, I seriously go jogging in jeggings. But I instantly noticed how comfy my workout outfit was! So I guess I should try to find some more new stuff soon. :)

    Anyway, I'm jealous of your collection! <3

    2. Sounds good with the gym :) Did you enjoy it?
      Well when you dont workout so often 1 pair of workout clothes is fine, but as i workout so often and have to keep washing my clothes then its good that i have loads... also, i wear sports bras and even my sports shorts as everyday clothing (at home anyway!)
      Also, i dont wear so colourful clothing in my normal clothes, so i love having loads of different colours when i workout!! haha

      Workout clothes are definitely the most comfortable... according to me anyway!!! :)

      Hahah, oh yes, that afterworkout burn!!! I guess it means you worked hard... :)
