Calm, hopeful, so optimistic, at perfected peace,

Someone is definitely praying right now!

Need you God to show me the narrow path,

Way to freedom from food and strife,

I want to stay in recovery and begin to keep it real,

I want to be xx and no longer able to feel,

But like a shot of heroin, vodka or cocaine,

The cravings come, go, taking over everything.

Come too far to let few kgs drag me down,

Spilling over words can’t remember the noun,

The thrill of weight loss continually abounds,

I’ll try to find some sane way out…

They ask me every day how I feel,

The reality is that I long to be healed,

Yet so undeserving, so ashamed and inept,

To you Lord I remain forever in debt.

 

 

 

“Reading about eating disorders helped me to understand what my daughter was going through. If you are looking for support within your family perhaps give them a book on eating disorders so that they can learn more about it and learn how to give you the support you need.”

"Our bodies are a mere reflection of the goodness that we have within. Learning to love yourself for who you are and not what you think you are supposed to look like is key. When you can look in the mirror and see past the physical, that is when you have truly learned to see yourself.”
