      Right? My mom and (especially) her bf tell me to "just eat", "you're already skinny, so stop starving yourself", "stop measuring food", "you need the calories and nutrients", etc., then her bf would go and call me "fat", "pudgy", "fatass", tell me I "should really work out", "need to not eat as much", say I eat everything in the house and I'm making them broke bc of it, etc.. It's so fucking tiring.

    There are so many videos that supposedly "motivate" you to create a healthy relationship with food, but really what they do is question you if what you do is right. Ro, what you do is incomparable and wonderful. In every video, in every meal, in every story, you make the battle that many of us are going through a little easier to control. I thank you infinitely for that, the effort you make is incredible.

    "Have I done well though that is the question" Yes. You've done so well. In the last 2 months since your first video on this channel, you have made so much progress and it amazes me so much how you keep going despite all of the mental pain you're going through.

    I don't have anorexia, just bad habits of "making up" for eating "bad" foods by not eating for a while. Not a healthy thing to do, but anyways, I couldn't imagine how difficult it is to eat while you're anxious. When im anxious I feel sick to my stomach usually, or I just dont have an appetite. We're all proud of you, Ro, you've done an amazing job so far 💕

    I feel like your whole experience of having anorexia and overcoming it and outright winning was like your mission set in motion so that you would be able to help so many people. I don't have an ED, I've never had one, but I understood so much of this disease by watching you, and it's so clear to me you helped a whole lot of people. I am proud of you and your parents and I love you. Thank you for being the way you are.

  • @laurenmaxwelll

    well done Ro! You’re doing such a great job & you should be so proud of yourself 🥰 also i’ve noticed your personality is starting to shine a lot more - i’m not sure if that’s because you’re getting more confident with filming or if it’s because anorexia isn’t dulling your sparkle quite as much anymore but i’m secretly hoping it’s the latter! I’ve personally came such a long way since letting go of anorexia ( I suffered from 7-16 and again from 19-21) I’m 25 now and have been able to do things I never thought i’d be able to , and I can’t wait to see you thriving and loving/living your best life with a free mind and body 💕 you got this 🙌🏽x

  • @SerenaRaquel22
    @SerenaRaquel22 3 роки тому +28

    One problem that I've developed years after recovering from anorexia is that I'm now afraid of being in control when it comes to food, the opposite of when I was anorexic. I make my boyfriend choose what I eat for every meal and I get sooo stressed out and sometimes even cry if he doesn't decide for me. It's super weird. But I basically don't trust myself to eat enough if I get to choose what I eat and I don't wanna fall back into anorexia, so I make him choose everything and I know he chooses good/healthy amounts for me. [hopefully this is okay to comment, you can delete and I apologize if it's triggering somehow.]

    • @tired2266
      @tired2266 2 роки тому +2

      I hope it's going better now! If you're still struggling, u could try easing into control, by kinda seeing what your bf has chosen and replicating it, or thinking about what u used to enjoy and eating something similar. Maybe choosing one meal a day, or one food group a meal, like protein or carbs, so u can get used to doing things u want as well
