This is it...my wake up call! I turned 30 today!! The day itself feels no different than any other, but in my mind I feel that this is a turning point. Today, my goal is to break free from from the chains of bulimia and enjoy the freedom to live and enjoy myself again. I've battled this disease for nearly 3 years now and I feel like I've made no progress. I want it...I want to remove the power food has over me; but easier said than done.
I know what I have to do, logically it makes sense. Yet each day, I give up at some point and let the power of food wash over me. Fill me lies, ruin my self confidence, and encourage me to hide deep within myself. The solution is so simple. Letting go and acceptance. Let go of the past, let go of the hurt, let go of the voices, let go of the perfectionism. Accept my body, my life, and my decisions. Only at that point can I achieve balance and happiness.
So why can't I just do it? What am I waiting for? Why is my grip so tight?
I don't have the answers, but hopefully this blog will become a tool for me to find out and eventually learn to have a healthy relationship with food and with myself.
