Post-Thanksgiving Reminders
Eating Disorder Support / by Shanna
Last post
 November 27th, 2020
...See more Thanksgiving (and all food-centered holidays) can be a very tricky time for those with an eating disorder or those who are in recovery. Wanted to send along some quick reminders if you are struggling today: You do not need to compensate through restricting, purging, or exercise for anything that you ate yesterday. Your body is wise and resilient and can handle a holiday meal (and any other meal) If you binged yesterday, that is okay--you still need to eat all of your meals and snacks today Today is a new day and another chance to get on track with recovery If anyone commented on your body or your food choices and eating patterns yesterday I am so sorry and it says much more about them than it does about you It is okay if you are struggling right now AND you can still leave space to acknowledge the progress you've made so far--set backs are normal and you are more than capable of beating your eating disorder in spite of them Sending you all lots of love and support today and every day--keep fighting, you can do this!
