Hey Rebecca,
How is it going? Thank you so much for reading my suggestion.
Do you have any hobbies or any activity that you like to do or something you always want to try?
Being alone is okay but a little social is awesome way to become more happy and healthy. So, do you like hiking, pottery classes, cooking. Chose one as a start and have fun with it and look people on Meetup to meet them and discuss your interest. This will give you social time plus something that doesn’t involve speaking about weight.
When you are with you weight chatter friends, talk about something else or go to movies because they will not be talking there. Be creative with them, learn to become master at changing topics. Your friends are more than weight talking people so find out what they like and do those things.
The thing is Rebecca your life is a gift and I am not saying it just because. I want you to use it. Live it and enjoy it and Rebecca you are the only person who can find out how. Try different things. Be experimental and 99% of time be around positive people. You can’t change your dad or your friends but you certainly can be what you want.
If you decide to be around negative thoughts, its hard to stay positive. But if you try everyday to become better at having positive thoughts and surrounding yourself people like you, you will find peace surfacing automatically.
Be selfish and do this for you, Rebecca.
Thank you for taking steps to kick your eating disorder and thank you for believing that you deserve better.
