I went to a restaurant

-

So today I went to a restaurant for lunch. Not out of the ordinary. Indian food, lamb korma with rice and a mango lassi because I wanted a treat. Pretty much what I always get when I go to this place. But what's different is last year I would have eaten the whole plate. Today? I ate maybe a third of it and felt full. I'm down over 50lb and my eating habits are so much better, my energy is so much better. This past weekend I went to dance class twice, as usual, but then I spent another 4+ hours doing yard work and gardening. A year ago I wouldn't have been capable of that. I still have a good long way to go but this is a victory.

I'm so proud of myself.

I'm 20, female, 167 cm and probably around 62 kg right now (that's BMI 22 for any americans). During my teen years my bmi has fluctuated between 20 and 24. Some of this was because of restriction, but a lot of it just happened naturally and I doubt I would ever reach a weight higher than perhaps 70 kg without the addition of serious mental turmoil, or pregnancy. Now in the eyes of a lot of people this would probably classify me as "naturally skinny". But growing up in the 21th century swedish middle class, I was actually on the "chunkier" side for my age. Now I think this is ...
