Anonymous asked: I don't understand why you never thought you'd write a post like that?

I just think, for a lot of people with eating disorders or body dysmorphia, reaching a stage where you’re starting to accept the way you look, or even start to feel comfortable in your own skin, seems like something so unfathomable that you can’t quite imagine ever reaching it, and I certainly never thought I’d be in a position where I started to feel like I was worth more than the calories I ate or the number on the scales, I figured I’d just have to deal with not liking myself very much for the foreseeable future. I didn’t mean it in a negative way, obviously :) xx
