As a 56-year-old woman who has struggled with myfitnesspal eating disorder, I know how challenging it can be to break free from the cycle of restrictive eating and unhealthy habits. It’s not easy, and it’s okay to acknowledge that. But I’ve come to realize that prioritizing my mental and physical well-being is more important than striving for perfection. It’s about learning to treat myself with kindness and compassion, and understanding that it’s okay to ask for help when needed. It’s not about reaching a certain number on the scale or fitting into a certain size, but rather it’s about nourishing my body and soul in a way that brings joy and contentment. I encourage anyone else struggling with similar issues to join me in choosing self-care over perfection. We’re in this together, and there is always hope for healing and positive change.
