Another day closer to being recovered

After another positive and enjyable day today, I really do feel as though I am getting closer and closer to being recovered. I weighed myself this morning, just to make sure that I have not lost weight and I havent. It really is exciting for me to have a non-underweight bmi and once more to actually be relatively happy with my body at this new weight. I never thought I would say this and I do have occasional moments hen I feel self conscious about my new body but I actually think I like my body more now then I did when I was thinner.

Since I am now a healthy weight, I have decided to cut back my daily intake sliightly to 3000 calories as I calculated my current intake and it is actually over 3200 calories which does feel a litttle excessive to me now, considering I am now a healthy weight. I still think that 3000 calories is a good recovery intake for me unill I actually feel as though I am completely recovered. I am still not certain that I have reached my natral set point weight but I should still reach that while eating 3000 calories if I haven't already.

I worked at the supermarket today and had a reasonably good day, although t was quite long working fom 8:30 until 5:45 and then I had to go straight to yoga. I really enjoyed yoga again and Ithink I will try and get myself  a yoga mat so that I can do some yoga at home as well. I find yoga is a fantastic activity for me to do as it is helping me to build strength up again after losing a lot of my muscle during my anorexia and the mindfulness really helps me also.

I also got an invite to my cousins 21st birthday and as soon as I got it I was extremely excited. Although this does not seem like anything special, for me it is as I have not wanted to go to anything like this for years. In fact, any parties I have been invited to in the past I have not gone to or absolutely dreaded. Now that I am getting better I really do want to get out and socialise more so I really am looking forward to what will hopefully be a great night. I feel like I have already missed out on many years of just having fun so I really want to start enjoying myself now!

I hope that everyone else is getting closer to recovering also. Remember if you are not actively fighting your anorexia, you wont make progress. Nothing changes if nothing changes and as long as you believe you can, you will! <3
