Are You a Woman Still Stuck on Wanting to Weigh a Certain Number?
From The Flavored Word 🎙️ · 10:34
Show by Shauna Gabriel
I weighed myself this morning. I already knew what the number was going to be. I know my body better than I know almost anything else in the world. And I knew I would rearrange my entire day around that number.This is what nobody tells you about eating disorder recovery. The disorder doesn't just pack up and leave. The monsters don't disappear. They just get more patient. This episode is about the mirror that stays broken long after the eating disorder is gone. About the 1.2 pounds that shouldn't matter. About the days that start glorious and end in defeat because a number said so. And about learning — slowly, imperfectly — to trick yourself back into the light.This episode isn't a blueprint for recovery. It's a reminder that recovery is possible and that you are not alone. Whether you're fighting your own inner demons or supporting someone who is, this is the conversation nobody wants to start but everyone needs to hear.If you’re navigating the space between who you are and how you’re seen, you’ll find more episodes here that meet you right where you are.
