I know this is old, but ive been watching your past videos as I find your voice so comforting, and you seem like such a kind and genuine soul, which I appreciate esp w my anxiety 🙈 anyway, i hope you're okay xox
Abi i just want to say you are truly such an inspiration. Personally i went from AN to BED but both of them stemmed from a place of fear, guilt and restriction. Watching your videos and hearing you talk yourself through the eating experience, validating your emotions but also challenging the ED thought has really helped me do the same. I wish you all the best. Rock on🥳❤️
And by the way, you look radiant and beautiful as always. I didn’t even notice any spots! And even if anyone were to notice a spot on someone’s face, that would be inconsequential because your wonderful personality shines above all else and that is what matters most ☺️ I’m not trying to diminish your experience though - I’ve been there and it’s a really hard thing to struggle with when your mind won’t let you think kindly about yourself, but it’s not a true reflection of you. You are wonderful just as you are!! Sending you a big hug!
Thank you for inspiring me to be kinder to myself and to have a more optimistic outlook. You just seem like such a lovely person and your authenticity is wonderful 😊
A Venezia c'è una buona tradizione culinaria, da non confondere con quella di altre parti d'Italia, quale è la vostra opinione sulla qualità dei prodotti che avete provato ? Ripeto in altre zone d'Italia, secondo me, si possono trovare esperienze di cibo fantastiche.
highly recommend melanzane parmaggiano if you like aubergine and cheese - plz do as I think you'd like it!:) maybe your mom can make it for you at home?...
ananas a pezzi means pineapple pieces! glad you enjoyed your trip :) but those Gelateria (ice cream shops) with fluffy ice cream are just tourist traps and they are bad quality unfortunately, next time try Venchi and grom <3
@@abisianjones loving this content btw. I travel in Mexico every winter but I have an active eating disorder. I look forward to when I'll be able to have food freedom like this. You are a daily inspiration, thank-you xo
Thank you, Abi, you're a genuine inspiration to me! You make it all seem so easy and effortless (I know from experience that it isn't!) and that just makes me feel like it's so possible for me too! Honestly, thank you for making these videos, you are helping so many people <3
Hi Abby, I just wanted to say that I would love to be as brave as you, I have been suffering from anorexia for two years and I am having a hard time going all in because I feel like I am going to gain weight and I don't want that but then I see you who are so brave and You look pretty and thin, I would really like to stop thinking about food and calories or if I'm going to gain weight from doing all in, well, I love you Abby, you're so very brave❤️
You might gain weight but in return you gain so much more - being able to join in with social situations, make meaningful connections, rediscover your interests/hobbies etc.. Instead of focussing on the weight try and reframe it as gaining energy which allows you to live a more fulfilling life and ultimately reach your potential 💫
I just want to say, I’m proud of you for even considering going all in. It’s terrifying so don’t beat yourself up for not having done it yet. It took me 5 years to work up the courage. Also, remember that YOU ARE SO BRAVE- this disorder is debilitating and you get up every day and battle with it. You are so strong and so brave. All I can say is, there will never be a perfect time or a time that you will no longer be scared. The only way out is through fear, but the fear is so temporary!! Going all in will finally give you the freedom you deserve. I never really think about food anymore unless I’m hungry. You will reach that point, I know you can do it!! Gaining weight is merely a by product of true happiness and true freedom. I like to think about how limited our time on earth is when I worry about gaining weight. I want to have tried everything, and that includes enjoying all foods whenever I want. Gaining weight isn’t guaranteed but the only way to be truly free and overcome an ED is to risk it. Try and make a list of all the positives that come with being all in such as better relationships, being involved in occasions involving food, not thinking about food, better academic performance, higher level of life satisfaction and the ability to be spontaneous. Make the list as long as possible so when you are all in and the fear arises (because it will), go back to the list and remember why you are doing this. Additionally, I would advise you to make a list of emotions that you expect to feel - guilt, anger, grief, sadness, disgust and possibly depression. Then write under them “this is temporary and expected. I must sit with this and only then will it go away and I be truly free”. It will feel like you’re letting go and it will feel scary and unknown, but you’ll get to know this new feeling. Then true happiness and freedom will be achieved. You’ve got this 💖💖💖
We wish so much love and light into your life Chloe! We are here for you, never forget that!!! Keep pushing through because this struggle will be pure memory very soon! Life is up and down but the happy days always come back around. I’m forever proud of you 💖💖💖
Thank you for being so real and sharing the carrot cake moment with us! It’s wonderful how you communicated what was going on for you and worked through it so effectively. Well done you!!! You are so resilient and I’m grateful for how you continue to motivate me 😊 You are both so lovely to each other and I’m so glad you have that 💜💜💜💜
