Is there anyone here who needs to be careful because they've had an unhealthy relationship with food in the past (years ago) but now wants to lose weight in a healthy way? Do you find it hard not to binge or starve or whatever your disorder was?

Me. And yes, it’s hard. I’ve had to completely reevaluate my relationship with food, and I still slide back sometimes, but it’s possible. It has to come from a place of love and tenderness, whereas eating disorders come from a place of hatefulness and obsessive controlling behaviors towards yourself. Some days will be better than others. Talk to someone if you need to. ❤️2
