I see you, Brie, you brave woman.<br /><br />I think spilling your guts here (now that it's a safe blog) will help motivate you towards health again. And after all, we know you can do it, because you've done it before! Keep your supports close, be on your guard for that pesky jerk of an eating disorder, and just keep being true.

Again I was reminded nutrition must be an intentional part of every day, regardless of how long I've been weight restored.<br /><br />I'm glad you wrote this post. Your motivation to attack the problem is inspiring!

In fact, I'm fairly sure I even have my therapist conned at this point. Which is killing me. <br /><br />My Boosts & Fortisips & Sustagens & Resources & Ensures are stacking up in the cupboard (while I lie & keep taking new deliveries because of course I'm consuming them), & damn it, it's time I start actually drinking them. <br /><br />So, woman! Here's to you. Here's to you being brave enough to share your truth. Which in turn inspires me to cut the crap & get back to REAL life. Race you to weight restored! ;)<br />xkatiemacgregorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10388654429144387994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6957758174408171291.post-82790902620696319702012-07-30T00:08:31.271-06:002012-07-30T00:08:31.271-06:00I love you girl!!!
