Happy Christmas everyone!
i just got back from a univercsty ski trip last night and am going home today for the holidays which im very excited about!
just thought id reflect over my trip as thinking about it this morning makes me realise how far i have come.

i booked the ski trip very early on in the semester after persauding my friend it would be alot of fun and kind of just left it at that next thing i new it was the day before and i was packing my layers of thermals! on the morning of the trip i also suddenly had some thoughts and panics, i only know one other person on this trip what if i dont meet anyone else? i dont no this friend that well what if we dont get on spending a whole week together? what if she finds out about condition? what if i put on weight? what if i have to eat food im not confortable? what if im so cold i cant enjoy myself?
the usual ed thoughts!

but, suprise suprise, none of them seem to be an issue! i felt free. we made friends with some funny boys and lovely girls who we met on the coach journey, we had amazing snow to ski on, it snowed but i layered up perfectly and kept warm :), we went out a couple of nights and had a good boogie and laugh, we cooked togehter and made sandwhiches from the 'unhealthy' french bread, and i was completely myself with my friend i am so glad we went on this trip together as we have gotton so close.
So overall i am so happy i went on ths holiday i was such a great experience and so much fun, somethign i could never have done deep in condition! i am missing the slopes already bt cant wait to get home and see my family, friends and boyfriend!

hope everyone is having a lovely weekend
love always xxxxx

False evidence...

Absolutely beautiful, Evelyn, I am just delighted about your wonderful experience.
Just goes to show how condition fears are so overblown and wronged. Certainly F-alse E-vidence A-ppearing R-eal... Once you dropped the fears and allowed yourself to live and take in all the experiences it turned into the trip of a life-time.
And isn't it just amazing when you look back then and see just how far you have come?
Well done, lovely, and thank you for sharing this experience with us.
The amazement will never leave you ;-)

Love and happy Christmas to you,
