Give It Up, Live It Up

June 30, 2009 eating disorders

I realized that when I asked the question yesterday about whether you controlled your own life, I did not really answer my own question. In fact, it was a pretty tricky question. What does “being in control of your life” mean? It’s open to so many answers, and can be interpreted in so many different [...]

From being to IN control

June 29, 2009 eating disorders

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it once again: Anorexia is all about control. We want to control our bodies, we want to control our eating, we want to control our schedules and time. It’s not really about the fear of weight gain or food. It’s more about the fear for the lack on [...]

Unwasted Time

June 28, 2009 family

A Foundation of Faith and Tilapia

June 24, 2009 eating disorders

I reek of the odor of onions and garlic and raw meat. I’ve been in the kitchen all day with my mother, cooking up beef and seaweed soup and Korean BBQ for an old lady in our church. And while my hands were busy peeling garlic and chopping onions, my mind has also been busy [...]
