This is the process of my recovery from an eating disorder through Jesus Christ. If you would like to see if you and I relate or if this blog is worth your time please see the "About" and "My Story" tabs.

Living in Peace
With the new amazing videos that have come out about real people going through the Addiction Recovery Program (check it out here) I have been thinking about my own recovery through the program and how drastically life changing it was. What a beautiful experience my recovery has been. I would not trade my struggles for anything. I am now able to look at every new challenge I face with honesty, hope, and faith in Jesus Christ. I am genuinely excited about life and each day I get to work at becoming better through Him.
Reviewing some of my past posts, especially the tab with "my story" is humbling. It truly is incredible that I am a wife and mother of 2 that lives every day in peace... I sleep, instead of making diet plans and working out all night. I'm at my most healthy weight in 10 years and I actually eat real food (milk, cheese, bread, meat, etc.) and even ice cream every day! I no longer twitch and fidget all the time. Eating a sandwich without a total meltdown happens everyday! I can leave the house without a jacket to hide myself and not even think twice about it! The last thing I think about before going to sleep each night and first thing I think about when I wake up every morning are my children, not how fat I am. I don't constantly review every tiny thing that is wrong with me. Most importantly I am at peace. I am happy.
While I have made HUGE steps to changing I still have things to do and learn. The 12 step process is incredible because it is something I will use my entire life. I am using the principles in the program to become a better wife, mother, and disciple of Christ every day!
