Life without Anorexia

My motto is 'Dont let the sadness of your past & the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present'

I am a generally happy girl who loves running, going to the gym and eating food!! Though my life has been very different.
I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia & purging tendencies & over exercising. I was depressed and self harmed. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
After alot of struggles, lots of ups and downs, suicide attempts, tears, anxiety, panic and never thinking i would be healthy.
I am now declared healthy from anorexia nervosia.

I have been blogging for 4 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 am happy and healthy and living my life. Going to school, meeting friends and trying to find myself in this world.

I write about my daily life, but also try to write posts about how it was when i was sick, advice and tips.
I am open and friendly, so dont be scared about writing a post or sending me an email at: [email protected]

Food shopping

I know many are curious about what I eat and some even think what I eat is weird. But for me, it's not weird because this is what my family eats as well. My parents are pescetarians and eat alot of fish and quorn products. I eat chicken / fish / quorn. We always have vegetables and fruit. Nuts and seeds. Quark, cottage cheese and eggs at home!! That's like the basics.
  When we went shopping i pretty much had to drag my mum to the ice cream section and make her buy me B&J ice cream!! haha (it was special price!!)
  Of course we do have chocolate/chips at home sometimes, but it's not the first thing we buy.
   Here are some pictures of what we eat/buy!
   Don't judge what i eat because it's what my family eats as well. I've grown up with this type of food! ! It may be strange for some, but for me it's normal.

  1. I think that it is so stupid when people criticise what and how you eat. It's different what the standards are from family to family. In my case at my parents house (I live by myself) all their products are ecological or home made and they always keep things as skyr, seeds and nuts and their freezer is full of bones from chickens and cows to make home made stock. And that's just how they eat.

    I think that you are great Izzie and I think that your food choices are delicious and I am just as hooked on chocolate as you are. <3

  2. Glad to see you have ketchup!! it looks a lot less processed than most of the places in the US. My house growing up had lots of homemade stuff - not vegetarian products. More meat , potatoes, fruit. Now I love yogurt , fruit, pancakes, cereal! chicken and turkey. I like things plain. I think your food looks awesome!

    1. Hahah, it feels like ketchup is one of those items that almost everyone has in their fridge whether they eat it or not... Just a few days ago we had 3 different kinds of ketchup in the fridge!! ^_^
      Yummm!!! Do you spice your food with anything... like cinnamon/spices etc or do you just eat it plain?= :) Both ways are nice!

  3. I like cinnamon, coffee sweeteners in everything! Torini syrup is great in oatmeal and almond milk. Just came back from ikea and thought of you. Im just a ketchup girl - I have 2 always. and packets.
    Growing up I did more gravy and cheese (since ED things have changed). I love FF cream cheese. Annies Bunny grahams - yogurt pretzels (when I treat myself. ) It takes so long for me to eat I am failing at this again:(.
    Hey we hit 55 today in MN! Take care
