Life Is Treatment

As a part of my lease agreement, I work 10 hours per month for Abbey to pay off 100 dollars worth of rent money. Today I spent 5 hours cleaning her parents’ house working off those hours. Oddly enough, I had a really good time.

I was feeling so down this morning that I almost “called in sick” (Abbey left a few hours before me to take care of the horses) and didn’t go over. I am so glad and so proud of myself that I didn’t. It was so rewarding seeing what a difference I had made there and I can’t wait until they get home on Thursday to see their reactions.

When we came home I showed Abbey The Wicked Otter - my website from high school. She read the entire thing laughing hysterically, and then asked if she could send the link to some of her friends. I was really flattered.

I also showed her pictures of me from when I was thinner and her reaction to some of them really surprised me. She said I looked too skinny, which wouldn’t bother me since I know that I had an eating disorder at the time they were taken, except when I look at them now, I see me at my ideal weight.



Do I look too thin to you? I don’t want my weight loss goal (I’m on a healthy diet) to be set to an unhealthy ideal. Thanks for your input!
