On the left: myself; summer, post two month trip to Europe eating my way through twenty countries.
On the right: myself, this weekend, a year later.
Same camera, same pose, same girl, both portrait orientation, literally nothing different about the pics, but a 25 pound weight loss in a healthy, non-restrictive, body positive, non bulimic way.To be able to look at this and say I’m proud of how I achieved this is something I never thought I’d do.
I was plagued with an eating disorder for five years of my life that could have taken my life easily should I have not sought help when I did.
If I had gained as much weight as I did when I traveled and was still in a horrible mindset, I would have lost control and hurt myself. Now, I can look at it and say “Ok. We had fun. We ate a lot. Who cares!?”
It’s possible to regain your strength.
