OK...after playing around for a while with various blog sites I have decided to move to blogspot. CK is an amazing tool for many people, but not a place I should be hanging around (as I'm trying to stop obsessing about calories so much, and a website dedicated to counting calories is a bit counterproductiv for me). Plus my membership here is up in the next month or two and I just don't have the money to keep it up. I'm sure I will be tempted to com...

I love Nia!!! I had so much fun last night. As an inpatient at Center for Change you get to do yoga and Nia if you’re exercise approved. If you haven’t heard of Nia, it’s like dance meets martial arts meets aerobics meets free movement. When I was inpatient the first time I got to do Nia all of two times…and then I got “unapproved” because I kept getting caught exercising illegally. Stupid eating disorder ruins everything! My second stay there I never got exercise approved because my...

I often wonder where the line is drawn between recovered, in recovery, and eating disordered. Recovered is a little more clear cut to me. I know I’m not there. But the other two I find myself contemplating…a lot. Does it really matter? Probably not. But still I wonder, am I in my eating disorder, or am I in recovery, or better yet, “working on” recovery?

I do believe ignorance is bliss. Before I entered treatment or started therapy I didn’t talk to anyone about my eating disorde...

And a new decade begins...

Friday, January 1st 2010

Happy New Year! I really do love this time of year. I love the hope that starting something new brings. It’s really hard for me to believe that it’s been 10 years since the whole Y2K thing. Sometimes it seems to me like time is standing still, but then I look up and a whole decade has passed. In 2000 I was 21, just finished my first degree, and starting out in “the real world”. Now I’m…well…older (you can do the math)! I never imagined the twists and turns life would take, but they...
