Good #flashbackfriday morning. We’re #flashbackfriday-ing to September 30, 2020. I was celebrating a year of no binge eating on that day, which means I’m celebrating THREE whole years of no binge eating today.
Which is a very big deal, cuz binge eating was one of my first “survival skills” (the fatter I got as a tween/teen/young woman, the more disgusted, and less likely to mount me again, grandfather became) that was actually more of an unhealthy coping mechanism than an actual “survival” skill…I eventually learned, on the psychiatrist’s couch, that all my “survival skills” were actually unhealthy coping mechanisms that were killing me, and that “survival skills” aren’t supposed to kill you.
And how does one celebrate three years of no binge eating? By maintaining a 176 lbs weight loss. #thisgirl still weighs in at 150 lbs even.
I stand all of five foot nothing, I weigh 150 lbs even, I measure 36 34 38, and I should probably empty the dishwasher & shower for work.
