Tw: disordered eating, starvation, self harm thoughts, chronic illness. . . . . I did a bad thing last night. I went down the rabbit hole of my own instagram. I was looking at pictures of myself from 3 and 4 years ago, looking at my slimmer body. Missing being small enough to wear cute plus size stuff. Small enough to drive a compact car, and sit in chairs with arms. Small enough to look the way I wanted to look. It fucked to my brain. I fell asleep with plans of starving myself, and eating my trigger foods on purpose. I was thin because my Crohn’s disease was uncontrolled. I was thin but also my hair was thin, my nails brittle and my teeth rotting. I was thin and I was sick and I wasn’t happy. I’m fatter now. So much fatter. My hair has grown back and my nails don’t spoon anymore. My iron is normal, and I absorb calcium again. And I’m fat. Chemo and steroids saved my life and ravaged my metabolism. My poor body doesn’t deserve to be starved and hated. It’s a survivor. It’s fragile and it’s mine. So I’m working on loving it as is. Messy hair, no makeup, puffy eyed me. I deserve love and happiness as I am. So do you.

A good praying wife and mother, can do more for the Kingdom of God on her knees at home, than sometimes the preacher can do on the platform.
