Steal My Eating Disorder Recovery Plan
Whether your eating disorder really ruined your summer, you can’t keep up with the behaviors, or you are just exhausted of the day-today struggle…you find yourself ready to make a change. Maybe you are just thinking about making a change. Either way, you are going to want to snag my eating disorder recovery plan.
Here is my step-by-step eating disorder recovery plan to jump start your recovery this fall…
1. Make a realistic plan for food
You didn’t get to this point over night so getting out of it won’t happen over night either. Start with 1-3 food goals that you can actually achieve and work on and try to stay consistent with those. Make it small and doable.
2. Get curious and start a journal
I know I know. This is always recommended, but I am going to give you specific things to write in this journal. Each day jot down days or moments when food, eating, or body image is harder than usual or easier than usual. Make some notes about what is going on that day. Let’s be curious about how your eating disorder shows up each day.
3. Get in the recovery mindset.
Surround yourself with pro-recovery content. Unfollow any account or content that is pro-eating disorder, triggering, diet oriented, or unhelpful.
4. Investigate and educate
Start reading and learning. There are soooo many great books and podcasts. To start I highly recommend How to Nourish Yourself Through an Eating Disorder, 8 Keys to Recovery, and Eating in the Light of the Moon.
5. Partner with an eating disorder dietitian for more support
Eating disorder dietitians are specifically trained to guide you through navigating your eating as well as helping your make the connections between your eating and emotions because eating disorders are about the food and very much not about the food. This makes actually makes therapy more productive!
