Being Recovered

I am not ashamed of having suffered from anorexia

I don’t allow anorexia to take over anymore

I live each day as it comes

I barely think of calories or look at fat content in food

I can go on dates at restaurants and have sweets at the cinema on a date

I haven’t known my weight for six years

My parents no longer question me about food

They know if I’m out until late, I’ll have something when I come in

The only foods I don’t eat are foods I didn’t really eat before I was ill - cakes, desserts, biscuits

I adore having curves and am comfortable in my body

I enjoy dressing to flatter my figure

I know I am more than what I look like
