Losing weight has become of utmost importance to me and I really feel no desire to write about it, talk about it, or hear about it. I just want to DO IT and succeed. On my own. It's hard to explain what I'm really trying to say. Here's a quote from one of my favourite books, Marya Hornbacher's Wasted: "Eating-disordered people, for the most part, don't talk to one another. It is usually not a little sorority where it's all done in a very companionable way. It's usually intensely private." I have a tumblr which I use as my outlet for inspiration and beauty and the occasional rant. Follow me, ask me things :) we can be tumblr friends: clicky!= http://petiteetbelle.tumblr.com/
This song came out, like, five years ago when I was just a little 13 year old. Anyway, it always reminds me of moving on and how great things are to come and how "life's waiting to begin." It's for you. Thank-you to everyone and anyone who followed me and commented and supported me when I needed it. You are the most incredible people. xo
Somewhat sorry to read this- however, I completely understand and have felt like doing the same for quite a bit now. Everyone's blog reaches somewhat of an expiration point. Let's keep in touch via tumblr (I might need help learning how to use the behind-the-scenes aspect!) and I wish you luck in your future adventures :) It's been nice to have you there throughout the year, going through the same things together.

It's a shame you're going, you always seem so determined and organised. I hope you do come back one day, but please enjoy your life. <3 I agree with the quote you posted, I think online it's easy for disordered to talk to one another, but in real life I find that anyone else with an eating disorder... I feel competitive with. Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful time out there <3 look after yourself xx

I actually have a couple of tears running down my face. You are my inspiration, and I'm not gonna lie it hurts to see that you're leaving. But I do realise that you must put yourself first and I wish you the best of luck for EVERYTHING! You will be amazing and succeed at whatever you put your heart into. Best of luck!

Go out and live your life Alisha!
