Hi Grace!! Thank you so very much for the lovely comment. I have certainly struggled with disordered eating and have been in various points in recovery throughout keeping this blog– will definitely be sharing more about my journey on the blog in the coming months, so stay tuned!! Lots of love to you.

I try to enjoy life as much as I can, but I also fall in the trap of anxiety, low self esteem, and the you-are-supposed-to-do-this many times. I’ve change the mentality a lot, but I still struggle with it, and I have to enjoy the fricking journey more often!! If no now, when? That’s true…

I swear that this past days I’ve seen many beautiful and inspirational quotes about dreams and desires. I think I need to text God and ask Him if this is the signal I asked him for!! I know weird… but how many times I wish I just follow my dreams without caring… but daring myself to do it!!!! Ahhh lots of thinking and planning!

I’m thinking a meditation day to just sit back and listen to myself… what do I truly want? How do I achieve it? Thank God I’m done with this trimester tomorrow, so I’ll have plenty of time to think…

As always thanks for your words… it reminds me of many things I should do more often! Xo

I love reading your blog… On some points it seems that you have had troubles with body image (and or eating disorder) in addition to your stomach problems. Is this true? I have an eating disorser (in recovery!!!) and I would like to know about your experience if you have dealt with anything like it. Or if you have posted about it before, where?
If you have not had this problem, forgive me! I may have misunderstood.
Thank you!

I love this, Kim!!! And I have been meaning to tell you how much it meant to be when you reminded me a few weeks ago how important it is to focus on small victories… I have been trying to do that lately, and it has made a WORLD of difference in my happiness and wellbeing. And yes, in health and fitness it is so important to remember to love your body now instead of focusing on how strong/fit you will be in the future… your body is doing beautiful things for you and allowing you to train and do the exercise that you love. That is something to be celebrated!!!

Yayyy, so happy to hear it!! You deserve that, love. We all do 🙂

Yes, you live in one of the most beauuuutiful places on earth and I know exactly what you mean! I went to college on the bluffs in Marina Del Rey, 5 minutes from the beach and most of my time was spent freaking out about school and my future. So important to take a deep breath and look around at the beautiful life you lead- you will do well in school regardless 🙂

Yes, I am quite the same as you! Total workaholic. Sometimes it’s important to take a deep breath, look around and see the beauty of the life you’ve built for yourself. And that is certainly enough!! So much love to you.
