Sunday mornings are spent browsing blogs and Facebook as I drink my first cup of coffee and begin to wake up.  This past Sunday I happened across Jill’s post about the “i am enough project”.  This post really hit home with me.  Why?  Part of the reason I have been struggling on and off for the past 26 years with anorexia is the feeling that I wasn’t enough.  I wanted to be thinner, prettier, better, etc. 

As I have grown up, been recovering and going through therapy, I have learned that I don’t have to be all that.  The only person I have to please is me.  I have to be happy and comfortable with who I am, on the inside and the outside.  I need to love the skin I am in and my body for all that it can do, for it is strong and powerful!  This is easy some days and much harder other days.  I wear a constant reminder on my arm on my Road ID:

I am unique. There is no one else like me.  I am enough.
