I’m so excited! I’m not one to advertise it, but I’ve had an eating disorder (EDNOS) since sixth grade. I’ve tried to write about my eating disorder in depth for the past few years, but it’s been difficult—and, yeah, let’s just say it’s a big cause for the failure of my food-oriented niche blog attempts in the past and a major reason I’ve decided to just have a “lifestyle blog” with food posts here and there.
