Well guys, I’m doing it. I’m officially giving my first attempt at recovery. I had some scary heart stuff happen this week, and as much as I may hate my body, I’m not ready to croak. This is freaking hard. I’ve cried every day, the bloating is insane, and the extreme hunger is wild. And it’s been technically less than a week. I know my body needs time to acclimate and it could be a few years before it all levels out, but that’s a lot of stress, discomfort, and emotional rollercoaster-ing in the meantime. Send your best wishes my way🙃

How do you know when your body is on the brink of shutting down? I have atypical anorexia/bulimia, so I’m not underweight, my heart rate was a little wonky a few months ago but seems to be ok now, but my bf keeps thinking I’m going to die in my sleep or something and that’s starting to scare me that maybe something WILL happen to me soon, even though I don’t have any symptoms that concern me yet. What are warning signs that your body is about to do something scary?
