For real, what a great dad! ☀️ Mine just laughed at me when I needed urgent help - I stood in front of him with a BMI between 13-14 and this man just put it off with a simple hand gesture and said: "There are people in Africa who are much more underweight and still live & function. They are far worse off." I believed him. I am nothing special and there are people, who suffer more. I should not complain. There are no psychiatric diseases, it's all a problem of willpower and I have to function in his opinion. I was a very young single mother then, freshly separated and in heavy emotional pain. It nearly killed me to raise kids while being anorexic and not one bit of help from my family! They will all get their karma, I hope. My children are somewhat traumatized being left alone by their father & grandparents. No wonder there was no way to come out of this hellhole (mindset) with a non-empathetic parent like him. My mother is eating disordered, too and reinforced the ED. Hold the ones dear that helped you in the darkest days - these are the real angels on earth!

When you talked about always thinking that other people “don’t finish their food” - I felt that. I used to obsess over whether the people around me were eating less or more slowly than me.

Yes! I was shocked to hear that it’s a theory some pose in their minds to justify to themselves not finishing their food. I’ve never had an ED just a borderline situation one semester of college. But I just want to confirm for you guys, if there’s any hint of doubt in the back of your minds, people such as myself do indeed finish the whole plate every time. I was conditioned to as a child by my mother. Also, I was always thin-ish so classmates around me would have assumptions about how little I ate. The constant snacking is a correct presumption. Every 10 minutes. Apple. Oatmeal. Cereal. Toast. Lasagna. Hot chocolate. Salad. Crackers. Cheese cubes. Nuts. These were the things I ate often between actual meals. My parents would say I never stop moving my mouth. You really never know what people are eating behind the scenes.

You are probably the first KZreadr recovering that doesn’t trigger me. I think it’s because I see you using coping mechanisms and use the support from your family and positive self talk. A lot of people recovering don’t do these things and still eat meals that are not enough (which isn’t bad everyone recovers differently but these videos just personally trigger me) so thank you for posting your recovery because it’s really inspiring for me. I know this is not every day for you but you are really trying and that’s amazing to me.

The moment I saw you and started watching this my heart felt happy. I have seen so many people struggling with anorexia/an eating disorder still very much struggling with the want to get better, with no hope, no positivity. Let me just tell you, you will be ok and you will be victorious in this. I had an eating disorder for 4 years and it was the most difficult heartbreaking painful depressing years of my life. I almost died many many times and had the EXACT same issues you talk about when dealing with your food. You HAVE to train your mind to be ok with food again and it looks like you’re on the right track, girl. You WILL get your life back. My advice: eat as much as you possibly can until you’ve gained what you need, then eat more and gain a little more. I always knew I would see the other side and I know you know you will too. I would have never guessed what strength recovery brought me. I am now in the best shape I’ve ever been, I’m a trainer, and I get to share with so many other women who struggle with what I did. I believe that I was put on this earth to share my story. I believe you are too, little fighter! I believe in you.

I’ve never had an ED but I have anxiety disorder and OCD and it’s eery how similar the thought processes are!! So proud of your journey !! In the US we have a saying called the “clean plate club” where if you finish our plate you’re a member. So welcome to the clean plate club sis !!! ✨

Im not anorexic, but when troubled emotionally (even if its trivial to others) I would feel sick of eating, to the point of my gut grumbling and still not feeling hungry. Every time in those situations I end up trying to take the healthiest food choice by telling myself "Not eating will not solve the problem. I will eat so that my body can have the energy to deal with the problem. I am not the problem. I will solve the problem" and I use this mantra every time to get out of any depressing episode that makes me feel even too sick to eat.

I’m similar. I don’t have an ED, but I have depression that a lot of times keeps me in bed so much I just don’t eat. At times I find I’ve been in bed for over 48 hrs before I even get up to go to the bathroom or get water.

​@@simone6726 I used to have the same thing (traumatic events) and sometimes it crops up when I'm down, and it takes a lot of effort to try to do something else other than lay in bed. I try to distract myself, or even when I give in to laying in bed I read a book, watch a documentary, write a to do list. I try to do something that is engaging which doesn't have me laying in bed arguing with myself for hours that I shouldn't be laying in bed, or just falling into emptiness. I look at it like a "practice makes perfect", I'll stand up and pace then go back to bed, then when arguing with myself just do that again, trying to use the body against what the mind doesn't want to do. Then the small steps become bigger and over time the depression becomes manageable. It will be hard when life throws it's lemons at you, but it's not impossible. Now when I'm down I walk in a park, look at trees, feel the air. At the beginning I kept on thinking what I'm doing is stupid, just a tree, just nature, what am I doing, even moving my legs felt awful, beautiful nature just looked black and white. Now when I walk I engage with the walk, the wind and my thoughts towards it. It took a while, I hated it at first, but now I'm better for it. It literally starts with small steps, that accumulate to more small steps, and next thing you know you catch yourself taking a leap by surprise.

@It’s Ritzzz I’m so sorry that sounds awful. I’ve recently developed some kind of anxiety too. It’s not as bad yours I’m sure but the anxiety definitely contributes to keeping me in bed as well. I’ve been afraid to be seen by people recently. It really sucks how depression and anxiety build off of each other right?

You go girl! So proud of you and your recovery! Thank you for inspiring others to recover as well! Keep up the amazing work

This was actually very wholesome to watch. Thank you for sharing something so vulnerable, this helps a lot of other people as much as it helps you.

I literally just stumbled upon this old video, and parts of it made me cry. Thank you for sharing your recovery journey! ❤️ The very best of luck to you!

coming back to this video after watching you grow into the incredible person you are today is incredible. i’ve been struggling with recovery recently and feeling like i can’t do it. and watching most recovery channels doesn’t help, but you are one of the only exceptions. coming back to this video showed me how much my anorexia really is holding control over me, and if you can do it then i can too. even though at the time these things felt impossible now you do them without a second thought and i want that for myself more than anything else in the world. thank you. you show me the strength that i know i can find in myself

i can just tell that this whole family are the kindest people

you should definitely try out eating while watching something that really helped because i just ate without really noticing how much or how fast

@@aaa_abc I think it depends on the person. Like if they’re just wanting to pass the time and not have to think so hard abt it then they could have a little distraction or something in the background. It helps me to watch stuff while I eat cause sometimes it’s hard to get through a meal when there’s nothing going on around you and it starts to get boring or make eating feel like a chore.

food is one of the happiest pleasures u can feel and taste while you are still alive cuz when u are dead and is just merely a soul, u cant have food like how humans would taste and feel them so eating is a good thing, dun giv up and you can do it and stay healthy 🥰🥰🥰

I can’t with how supportive your dad is- that’s just so sweet

When you were shocked by the banana tasting "literally nice," I died 😂 That pasta looked so amazing though, and your whole attitude is fantastic!

When your mom said “oh you dropped it, it’s a sign” I understood that however with me, I’m not suffering from an eating disorder. I suffer from emetophobia. So if I drop somthing or do somthing weird with my food, I take that as a weird sign to not eat the food cause it can “potentially” make me sick or somthing. It’s so stupid but it’s getting better. I don’t do it often.

I remember having memories like these but... two whole years without the voices✌🏼🥰 I'm so happy. I want to tell you that you can 10000000% recover fully. And someday will come where you forget you even went through an eating disorder. The hard days will become only memories in the back of your mind. And you'll enjoy finishing EVERY plate of food you once loved.🥰✌🏼💞💞 (Yesterday I made spaghetti with tomato sauce with olive oil in it and it was so yummy I went for a second plate and I even cleaned the sause on my plate with my fingers.😅😂) Sending so much love to you and everyone who is on recovery journey.🧡🧡🧡🧡 Just a reminder to anyone struggling today, You WILL Get Better🌸I promise. But please understand that recovering from an eating disorder is a different journey for different people. And do not compare yourself to others. As long as you're getting better and feeling better, who cares how much time is takes🌸 You've got this, you'll be free and happy🦋💞🌻

I do not know what it’s like to suffer from an ED, but I just wanted to say that this video made me really emotional and I am incredibly proud of you even though I don’t know you

your mum and dad are so supportive. your dad stood out to me, helping you every step of the way and letting you know that everything was okay.

Ro, you are such an inspiration! I’m am blown away by this video. I can’t even tell you how absolutely amazing it is to watch you do something that is so incredibly hard, I know that you have such a bright future and your example will provide hope to many. ❤️

Wow, you're a truly brave woman stepping out of the shadows of eating disorder into the light of recovery! I pray that you will establish a healthy relationship with food and will be filled with love for yourself. And I hope you will gain enough fat and muscles for you body to become strong and healthy so you can rock this world!!! But I bet you are already making a huge positive impact for all those out there who share a similar story. 🌻❤

You are doing brilliantly! You are smashing every step even when you don't feel as though you are. My aunt is 100% recovered, she would never have believed she would be where she is now - a happy and healthy mum with her own business and a healthy relationship with food. You will get there!

Seeing you fill your body with the nutrients it needs is so inspiring’ you can just imagine all of the vitamins and building blocks going to your limbs making you strong and to your brain making you think better :)

I've just found your channel and it breaks my heart to see that you're suffering. I suffered with anorexia for seven years, and I have now been fully recovered for five years. Recovery is 100% possible! You got this girl. Sending you all of the love and strength 🤍

I'm not anorexic, and have never struggled with food, but I'm really grateful this video existed to watch. It showed me how hard this is to beat. You're killing it. Keep going my doll.

You randomly showed up on my explore/home page, just wanted to wish you the best of luck on your recovery!! And thank you for sharing your journey, learned a few things about Anorexia that I wasn’t aware of. Keep killing it girl xx

I was anorexic a few years ago and I wish would’ve came across this video sooner. It’s true that when you eat all your fear foods and allow yourself to eat as much as you want, without fear of gaining wait while recovering because you need to. Recovery is amazing as well as intuitive eating because it teachers your body that you can have that food without feeling scared of binging on it. This creates a healthy relationship with food. It’s nice to see you try and eat an appropriate amount and making that speech at the beginning of the video that recovery is different for everyone and same things with portions and calories. You didn’t do any body checks or looked at the food with disgust which didn’t trigger me at all. I’m proud of you! Everyone recovering with an Ed needs to see this video. ❤

I’m not anorexic but I know you’re helping a lot of people through your channel

I appreciate that you showed the struggle/meltdown as well. you are being so brave and facing so many challenges head on so naturally your brain will resist. you are so friggin badass for facing this as bravely as you are :) much love to u!
