Celebrating Food
(TW Disordered Eating) If you’re a regular here, you know all about my issues with disordered eating. I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have some unhealthy thoughts around food, nor can I remember a time when I didn’t obsess about everything that I ate (and subsequently, my weight).

Between my quest to eat healthier and acid reflux forcing me to eat sweets … Continue reading Who Even Asked for Candy Corn?!
The FOMO is Real

The idea of missing out on anything is one of my main motivators. Like Barney Stinson, I can’t stand the thought of fun … Continue reading The FOMO is Real
