Beginning

Hey there,

I'm a 20 year old student trying to find my way to health and happiness. I struggled with an eating disorder for a couple of years and never really regained my healthy relationship with food. Instead I binged until I was not only at a healthy weight, but pushing the overweight boundary. This blog is about my quest this summer to lost the excess weight I've gained in a healthy manner, stop bingeing, and find the kind of harmony with my body that I've never really experienced.

I don't expect anyone will actually read this...but I feel like it'll be something to keep me accountable, help me sort out my thoughts, and get over this phase in my life that's affecting how I view things. I have a lovely family, incredible friends and should be enjoying what is a relatively carefree and irresponsible age.

I am determined to pull my self out of this tangle of feelings connected with food that I've found myself in. By the end of this summer (12 weeks) I want to be full of energy, healthy, and happy with the way I look.

Wish me luck!
