anyone else amazed at things they find in recovery?

i can feel myself getting better and better everyday. its so amazing to start feeling slightly more normal again. granted i still have some weight to gain i feel less stressed and wrapped up in eating and stuff. i deffinitly am still very restrictive on letting myself eat around friends or eating things like pizza and such but i dont expect to be over that for a good long time. and im ok with that and think a huge part of recovering from anorexia is feeling ok in your own skin. but its so weird that now sinse i have to eat a lot more than i did pre-recovery, i look at the calorie amounts in certain foods like peanut butter or w/e and think "wow, i could eat that if i want to". idk haha some things about recovery just amaze me.

Yeah I know what you mean =p

This ED recovery has opened up my eyes to a lot of the things around me and made me more aware of my surroundings. I have learnt so much through recovery =)

Keep on fighting the ED, and you'll get there! Why do you say you don't expect to be over restricting in a long time? Thats so pessimistic! Be positive! KNOW that you will get over that and it will happen. You have to take action for it to happen, otherwise the fear is going to remain with you until something is done. And the more you avoid the fear, the more afraid of it you get. So keep confronting the fear and you will get over it! =D
