Hi everyone
I feel I should explain a bit about me before I start blogging away...
My name is Em, i'm 22, female, and from the UK. I am struggling with my weight a lot, and I feel like all my problems would be solved if I were smaller. As though if I disappear, so will all the shit that floats around my head. I need control, because I can't control so much of my life, even though i'm an adult living in my own house with my Partner. I lack self esteem and confidence, even though I come across and loud and bubbly most of the time- that's not who I actually am. I restrict what I eat in order to feel some control over myself. I am not anorexic, and have not been diagnosed with an eating disorder. I have never even spoken to anyone about this before, let alone a doctor! I am not under weight, in fact i'm very much over weight (i'm 10stone, which makes me a COW, even though I recently lost over a stone!) I'm stuck in a limbo between self destruction and self acceptance- meaning sometimes I feel awesome about myself, and others... not so much. But that's not to say that i'm suicidal or morbid, or anything like that. Life is for living!
Life is not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself. Be who you want to be.

Hi, Em! And welcome to the bolgging community... I'm J, almost 30 and live by myself in Buenos Aires. I do have a blog but it's about photography... I'm not pro-ana but I read lots of blog about it... I too have issues with my body and even though I'm not anorexic, I do restrict most of the time. And, also like you, have good and bad days... Just thought I'd say hi! :)
