Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. If I'm honest though, that wasn't always true. In fact, when eating disorders were a real struggle for me, I would experience anxiety over the very thought of Thanksgiving for weeks leading up to it. I would get anxious because historically Thanksgiving was a day when my eating disorder spun out of control. The day would inevitably end with me feeling sick and ashamed. Now, on this side of healing, I’m so thankful to be able to celebrate the...

For most of my life I hated exercise. These negative feelings originated all the way back to my middle school years. I believed I was completely doomed when it came to sports or anything active; Which resulted in me never trying out for or participating in any sports, and a lack of motivation to even try.
