    Wow! Wow! Wow! You completely took the words out of my head ...this is what I'm struggling with right now ...I've cut back on movement but the food needs to increase (which actually causes me to go into extreme hunger which scares the shit out of me so I run back to my old ways ) and since I'm not I'm in misery. I'm scared lost and feel so alone. Thank you for this. I'm so scared. But I'm in this place where I can't go back anymore ...I realize too much and I can't keep avoiding or running away. I'm just so scared ...and I also realize this needs to happen not one day or one week or one month...but a long time...and I'm not even underweight or anything like that so it makes it even more challenging with the mental battle. I wish you could be here with me I know you can't do it for me. ..but I don't want to do it alone . But I have no choice ..thank you so much

      Thank you so much for sharing and I want you to know that although things can feel very lonely in recovery, you are absolutely not alone in this. Your intuition is absolutely spot on about this and remember that being brave is not about being fearless... its about being sacred AND moving forwards. Be brave, trust your intuition and know that you can do this xx

    Thank you for explaining this! I thought I was recovered because I lift weights now and I was gaining a decent amount of weight, but as soon as I lose some during stressful times (I work at my gym now and we don't get eating breaks and move all the time) my body spirals into a huuuge movement compulsion and even if I try to eat on top to make up for it, it's not enough. I don't have any fear of weight gain, it's actually very annoying that I have to move all the freaking time. Now I understand why and I'll do my best to rest more!

    I was honestly scared to stop exercising because I used it as a way to avoid eating. So when I went cold turkey on exercise I had to EAT during the time that I would have been exercising. That is the only way I broke the link between food and exercise. It's so true - it's the actions that make the difference when you're trying to rewire your brain. 💥💥💥💥It took me years to make changes and then when I just jumped in and started taking REAL action, my brain started changing pretty quickly. True unrestricted eating actually felt right to me after restricting for 20 years - like deep down I knew I needed to just eat and eat a lot - and rest! 😋🥰💜 Sending lots of love from Hollywood, from me and my cat Maggie to you and your kittens! 😻😻😻 xo Emily! ❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕
