Day 77 (Tues)


First of all, I can't thank you all enough for your comments. They really, really, really, REALLY helped.

I am not in the mood to write out a whole post about my reasoning or how this came about...

But, yesterday, Tuesday, I signed the paperwork and agreed to go if insurance approves.

Today, Wed:

I won't know about insurance until later today.

I was so nervous this morning that I was wishing I could just take a 500 calorie breakfast pill instead of eat the food.... but I ate. I ate 100% of what I need to eat. I had cinnamon raisin french toast with butter and yogurt and blueberries. Because, whether or not insurance covers, agreeing to go has been me committing to go 100% with recovery - which translates to 100% of meal plan, all of the time, like it or not. I just feel like I committed to something really big. 90% isn't enough anymore....

  1. Laura, I'm so so proud of you. This is an awesome thing you are doing and very scary. I think it will really help you to beat this thing once and for all. I know you can do it, I really do. I hope you find out soon whether you get to go.
    *hugs*

  7. That is a spectacular outlook!!! Committing 100% to recovery. To your health. To having the life you know you want and fully deserve to have! Rock on, Laura! Not saying it will be easy, but fully committing seems like a mighty difficult step, if you ask me! :o)
