discipline > motivation

Today I received news that I never thought I would meaning that I have received lifelong news in the last three weeks about two parts of my body that have been destroyed by an eating disorder.

My large bowel, destroyed by laxative abuse, is unlikely to ever work again as it was designed, and today I received the news that I have completely destroyed every one of my teeth- that every tooth is either deteriorating and/or disintegrating due to years of malnutrition, purging, and struggles with adequate hydration. My dentist and I both cried.

This has been the biggest wake up call for me. Eating disorders do damage and actions do have consequences.

I don’t have anything profound to share as I’m still processing but I didn’t see myself in tears at 27 years old wondering if I will still have my own teeth in a years time.

It may be too late to change what led me here, but it is a call to action to recover and to care for my body fully.

Please, if you are struggling whether it’s been for weeks, years or decades… reach out. Find help. We deserve to recover 🙏🏻

The body you want? Achievable with discipline. The career you want?Achievable with discipline. The life you want? Achievable with discipline. That car you want? Achievable with discipline.

The relationship with God you want? Achievable with discipline. The discipline you want? Achievable with God.

This is the best and perfect addition to this post

You can’t steer a parked car!

Stop fighting yourself and start fighting for yourself. You are not the enemy.

See how fast this year passed? You better stop playing with your life.
