Instead of ED (eating disorder recovery)

Instead of ED (eating disorder recovery) a pro-recovery place for those affected by eating disorders or disordered eating. This page was created out of need. That's what this page is for.

Sometimes when wanting to engage in ED behavior it's hard to think of what to do instead. This is a group endeavor that further demonstrates that we never have to do this alone. I also have a FB account that covers many other areas of ED recovery. You can send me a friend request at "ANAD Lori Licker"

This is so true. Many times EDs are a response to pain - a way to cope that works at first. This quote is from an ANAD blog where Dr Kissinger shares about her lived experience with an ED. How many people can relate?

"A scale tells you absolutely nothing about your worth. I know your eating disorder might tell you otherwise but your eating disorder is a liar. You deserve so much more than a lifetime of trying to shrink your body again and again."

Good morning everyone! What does your day look like today? I made this with butterflies because it's been such a great symbol of recovery. The summer scene is a shout-out to all of our friends Down Under where it's summer. Say hello I'd you'd like.
I've got lab work (complications from leukemia even though I'm in remission) so I'll balance it out with something fun this evening.

Some might call me a Pollyanna, but i don't believe that anyone is hopeless. I always say that as long as you have breath, there is hope. I'm also one of many examples of how that's true. So don't give up on others and don't give up on yourself. ❣️lori

How we speak to each other and to ourselves makes a difference. How can we make peace with food if we're labeling it things such as good & bad? How can we treat our bodies with care with some of the labels we use? Which from this post would you like to hear less of from people? What would you add? I look forward to your answers. ✨️lori

I really like this concept (she added a protein & some veggies). I have heard it another way too. Instead of labeling food as "bad," add more nutrient- dense foods to it (instead of eating nothing but a plate of bacon, add some eggs)

As a society, negative self- talk is more of a norm. For this moment, lets change it. What's something positive that you can say about yourself? I'll start. Overall, I'm a very patient person. Who's next? ✨️lori
