Day 133: One Year

I found myself getting a little emotional yesterday when I realized that it was exactly one year today that I told my mother about my eating disorder and decided that I wasn't going back to school. It was one year ago that I turned my life upside down to save my life.

And while along the way I probably would have told you, and anyone, that it was a big mistake, it was the best choice I ever made. I still have bad days, but so does everyone else. Now I'm healthier and happier and ready to restart my life.

I have great friends, a good plan for the future and some serious peace of mind. I feel normal again, and I haven't felt that way in a long time, probably since junior high.

So my gratitude for today is very simple; I am grateful for everyone and everything that has made my life worth fighting for during the past year. And I am grateful for everyone who stuck by me.
