Dani you are so so wonderful. I just started my weight gain/ED recovery, and I struggle with a lot of really similar behaviors to yours. It feels like we started from a very similar place, but your recovery is just a few steps ahead of mine. Your honestly and complete openness with your recovery makes me feel like I’m not alone, and like I’m no going crazy because someone else went through the exact same thing. Sorry if this is weird but when I watch your videos I feel like I’m talking to the big sister I never had 🫶. Thank you Dani, you quite possibly saved my life ❤️
A quote that really helped me was : insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results. Recently I just grew tired of sitting in self- pity and realized that I HAVE THE ABILITY of changing my circumstances. Since then I have FULLY devoted effort into changing and I am so happy that I started when I did because life is so much better when you have a clear goal. And when you know that you will achieve it regardless of how you feel, or what you’re thinking in the moment. You know that you are capable of controlling your outcomes. It all depends on YOU!
I feel like there is so much talk about the “perfect summer body.” Honestly the perfect “summer body” is one that is happy. This video is so inspiring and I can relate so much. I’ve always been scared about recovery like what if I do it wrong or gain weight in the “wrong” areas. Thank you for this video it’s really encouraging knowing someone can actually get better you are so beautiful and inspiring! ❤
Dani! I’m so proud of you. You’re very inspiring, while I’m not underweight I realized I have disordered eating habits and was spiraling and your vids have help me so much 🫶🏾. Thank you and praying for you, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for this video! I struggle a lot with overexercising and feeling like i have to deserve my food. You make me feel so understood and you show me that recovery is possible! You are so beautiful and inspiring, keep being amazing!💗💗
You don’t even know how much YOU help me wow this is a masterpiece I don’t even have words. I love your definition of a summer body at the end of the video 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Dani, thank you so much for your work, you are so brave! I am also recovering from an ED, I still struggle with body image and weight gain, but it is getting better. I gained weight. I am not so happy with it, but I know that this is the weight I needed to gain and should not have lost in the first place. Sometimes it is really hard, becouse I still kinda hate myself and my body. When I am feeling down, I go and watch your videos so I do not feel alone, like I am not the only one who has struggled or who has these problems. You made my day better 😊, thanks. I hope I will get better ( I still restrict a lot ), I am turning 14 next month...
The thing that makes it so difficult is that everyone who I know that has recovered were already gorgeous, including you. I don’t know if I will be even slightly attractive when I gain weight, because I’ve always been ugly: being thin is all I have.
Don't feel bad you didn't go to college, it's not for everyone, i have many family member who never went to college and are very successful in what they do... Love the video!!❤❤
You are absolutely beautiful. Your face is glowing, your skin >, your hair is so luscious, and you just look radiant and happy. Good for you. Keep going :-)
To be honest, that is how i was thinking back then during my recovery. I gained weight but if only that is pure muscle that I feel okay. If not i would be terrified. In the first few months of 2023, I got in several accidents and ends up not able to move. I also lost my job and with my legs injured, my soul broken, I let go and spend 2-3 months sitting at home eating bread, feel to stuffed and fall to sleep. That might sounds terrible, but also a whale of time I got to experience being quote unquote "fat" again and now I back again to cutting phase since I still miss my slim body. I struggle with cutting at first (to be honest, I can lost a single kgs for months) since I have been focusing on bulking up for a long time and because of that, I have to relearn everything. I will cut again but this time the goal weight wont be so below my BMI. And I will focus more on dietting not exercising this time, since a summer body still need fat ( in the place it should be). No bulking up on HIIT, just hot girl walk, standing a lot, eat good stuff, having cheat code and being more productive at work. I have been going for 1 week and drop a not significant but still satisfied amount. No more obsession over food if you gone through the "let go and eat" phase like I am. I gone through the shittiest phase to obtain the recovery mindset and now I am adopting new mindset for the weight loss goal. But I also believe we all have ways to escape this hell, not necessarily have to be like mine. I wish you the best
Everything is better frozen! I'm eating strawberry milk out of the container right now ~ froze the whole container and then cut it open ... PopTarts, chocolate, cookie dough, grapes, bloobs ...
i think yes you must change your thoughts because your thoughts turn your behaviours. Change your perspective on life, change your perspective on being skinny. And think for a second. Try to think of yourself objectively through someone else's eyes for a second. Then you will see how ridiculous what you do and think is. Remember that what makes us gain weight is not the food itself, but the amount and what we think. The food is not missing, we can always eat it. Food is good, but there are much better things in our lives. Eat with pleasure, stop eating when you stop enjoying. Remember that your thoughts guide your life. Besides, you are very valuable and life is too short for such problems. Lots of love 💓
Hey, I have a question, so I don’t think I developed any sort of eating disorder but, I’ve lost a lot of weight and it definitely shows now and some people have thought I was sick, I don’t find myself being hungry a lot or at normal times and I was wondering if you used to feel that way too and if there’s some way I can get myself to feel hungry at normal times again?
Hey! So I’m not Dani and I’m definitely not a medical professional, but I did experience something similar. Essentially what I did to fix it was make sure I ate even when I wasn’t hungry. Also making sure to have a big breakfast with lots of carbs helped me keep my appetite up throughout the day! Hope this helps, much love ❤️❤️

Is full recovery possible without negative thoughts?
