Excuse my grammar mistakes I make below, English isn’t my first language ;) this will be a really straightforward post.
I am 21f and I have always struggle with my body image. I had an eating disorder when I was around 13 until I was around 18. Growing up in an Asian household where weight is being constantly brought up by my parents/ relatives, it really messed up with my mental health and that led me to having eating disorder for 5 years.
I was slim but not healthy. I was around 120 lbs. I started college, and got really depressed. I pushed myself thru college all by myself and no support from both my parents. Yet again, I was in a really bad place. Children from dysfunctional families use food as a comfort, there’s no secret in that. I finished college last month, I gained 70 lbs while I was there and managed to lose 30. I am now 160, but my weight is very inconsistent. Some months I am 150, some I’m 160.
My parents weren’t a good role model when it comes to taking care of their body. They don’t choose healthy lifestyle, or healthy food, I didn’t grow up learning any of that. I want to learn. How can I learn?
Will it get better for me? What do I need to do? I just wanna be healthy and classy, like Audrey Hepburn or Princess Mia Thermopolis 😊 I want to be better. Please give me some advice. What worked out for you?
