In praise of recovery

I have wanted to really be able to know and define true recovery.

I think what it comes down to is that ability to be comfortable in your own skin, to be free from the obsessions and fears of food, to be able to eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full.

Right now, I can honestly say I am there.

Life is good.

Funny how with the last relapses in my life, I walked right into them. I knew I was going to have difficulty with what was going on, but I did them anyways- hoping- I wouldn't have a problem- but really sort of knowing it was stupid. So, I guess- my advice to my future self is "don't do anything stupid".

Seems like that applies to a great many situations in life.
