❤️ I am giving it my all. Diet culture has reared its ugly head, I am being targeted by alll the 'post baby body' dieting ads.😮❤️My body has been through so much over the last nine months. It has changed a lot, in order to create the most beautiful gift I could ever wish for.1/3 Image
The last thing I am going to do is put it under more stress by trying to manipulate it. ❌

👍Instead I am going to allow my body to heal, nourish my body with food and thank it for the amazing job it has done. ❤️

Our bodies really are bloody amazing 💕💕 2/3

It has taken me a few weeks to process this.

Let me tell you a conversation I had with a Dr recently. Had to visit & get checked over general pregnancy niggles, they had to check my BMI.
Dr: Oh Mrs Burnett you are measuring obese, we need to look at diet plans, I can suggest the new better health app, a calorie defecit & exercising.

Me: But I am 8 & a half months pregnant & recovering from an ED.
1st of all of course I am going to be weighing more a tiny human is growing inside me, I could pop any day now. 2nd I was discharged from ed services in Jan, suggesting I diet is not a good idea. I know I would spiral quite quickly and my priority is staying well for little one

Last year I jumped out of a plane for the amazing charity @beatED raising an amazing £2200

I would not be here without their help and support I desperately wanted to give something back to the charity that helped both myself and my husband. (1) Image
Leaving behind ED & facing my ultimate fears. I'm scared of flying & heights, so if I can face them I can face any fear ED threw at me. I thoroughly recommend this! I'm aware things aren't exactly running normally at the min, but why not look into some fundraising for next year?

Just absolutely demolished fish and chips for tea
One of the best things about recovery is saying sod it, I don't fancy what was on our meal plan, I can not be bothered to cook let's just have a takeaway.
Complete freedom and a normal thing to do. No guilt or shame attached.

Did I overeat? Perhaps. But we have this amazing thing called a motabalism that can cope with day to day fluctuations. Complete freedom to change plans last minute, complete freedom to have what I fancy insted of what I 'should'' have. Complete freedom to enjoy my food (2/3)
