Fi’s Fight Back - let’s do this 💪🏻

[@courtneymcguffee5753]

"Yes I fell over, but I'm standing back up again and that's what matters" GIRL YES. YES YES YES. I'm wildly dancing over that statement. Sosososo proud of you!

[@IndubianMa]

I love that you say "you are allowed to eat things that you like" Hugs💚

[@justagirlwithdogs9445]

Your paint by numbers is beautiful! I will be staying glued to your videos for the next six months. I know you can do this Fi. Much love from California :)

[@alie_smith]

I love this new confident mindset! You've got this Fi!

[@BeccaDoss]

Fi, this timing is so perfect. 1. I’m SO PROUD of you for recommitting to doing all the hard work because you know you deserve YOU back, one minute, one next right thing at a time. 2. I say the timing is perfect, because I’m going to be filming my own, more-positive, recommitted-to-recovery video as my recent journey has been similar to yours (once discharged in late November, did well until the new year, and have been mostly stuck since mid-January, but literally a week ago I had a fire lit under me that has me more determined to just DO THE THINGS more than ever, because life is worth so much more than a disordered existence). I’m so thankful you had that conversation with your parents, and that it helped light that fire under you, too. It was a conversation with my husband that had a similar effect on me. You say “nothing has changed” in the last few weeks, but doing all that mental, thinking work IS changing, and it’s the only way we’re able to make further changes in actions. I’m not joking when I feel like our journeys right now are similar mirror experiences (granted, I’m 33 and married, so there are also some big differences, but the general trajectory and the thought processes you’ve been having about life, and what you REALLY want and don’t want, is so familiar). I’ve also been in a state of nearly continuous burnout which also results in anger, and I’ve been blaming myself, and literally last night, my husband said something similar to your mom when I was calling myself a failure and a screw-up: “No, YOU are not a failure. The system, and the disorder, has failed you, but YOU are not the failure. Failure only happens if you quit, and you’re working harder than I’ve seen anyone ever work to not quit.” I know this is a long comment, but I just want to say I’m rooting for you and cheering you on what that message, too. Like your mom said, you didn’t choose this, and the fact that you keep being so determined even when things are so freaking hard means you are the furthest thing from someone who’s failed or quit. This update is amazing, and I am almost in tears hearing your resolve to do whatever it takes to get YOU back. Both because I’ve followed your journey, and also because it feels very much like where I am, finally, too.

[@penelopepolinsneemeyer4757]

You’ve got this, Fi! I’m so proud of you! xxxxxxxxxx

[@mmholst]

I love that in the "update" portion of this video you are sitting in your bedroom facing the window and the sunlight is shining on you. It is such symbolism for what you said about how you have been thinking about your life and finding your way out of the "dark place" ❤ Keep fighting, Fi! You've got this!! PS I found the cookies and creme CRISPY quest bars...if you'd like I can send you a box or 2 😊

[@alimoore589]

You have got this! Your strength really inspires me. You're amazing xx You may not see it but you've come so far. Be kind to yourself. As well as everything else you were recovering from Covid. We're all so proud of you xx

[@harmonyhope1709]

Great to hear you sounding so much more positive 🙏❤️ glad Fi is gradually fighting back 💪❤️ you got this xx

[@nicolepoole3501]

So proud of you Fi!! You have turned the corner!! You can be angry: angry at ED!! He’s an asshole who only wants to hold you down. You’re so much stronger and braver and deserve life!!!! Fi is a fun, spirited, strong, lovely, and brave!! 💕

[@J3an3ttak]

Love, love, love seeing that fighting spark in your eyes. Get it Fi! You can do this, so many of us believe in you and am proud of you.

[@Duskyofdaze]

This is my absolute favourite video you've ever done. Full of resolve, the way your voice sings, your eyes are smiling with you, your beautiful cohesive thoughts You are so incredible, Fi. I'm also really chuffed to hear you are a Crunchie bar enjoyer too 🥺 it is definitely my absolute favourite as well!!

[@allisonhamilton1245]

I know it's hard to see the light but you are doing all the next best things. There is color to your checks. Covid drained is all so please give yourself grace. You are loved. One phrase I love is "choose your mood". You can and will fit this!

[@Melaniebean]

You are doing such an amazing job, keep up the hard work. I hope you are very proud of how far you have come. You have so many people behind you cheering you on and excited for your success. You can do hard things & have shown that throughout your videos💜

[@leanygaard3505]

So proud of you Fi!! I would love to see an update with the dress!! :)

[@joannaroberts3672]

You’ve got this Fi and I’m so proud of you . Loving the confident mind set and that what’s. Ended to reach you’re goals and allow you to do the things you want in life. I h started with anorexia at the age of 10 and been suffering with periods of remission for many many years. You can do this . I love you’re dress and so looking forward to seeing you wearing it again hopefully for you’re birthday. But if not then then sometime in the future as it will look amazing . Stay strong fi. You are an inspiration picking yourself up. Hugs sweetheart. You’ve got this xx xx xx

Lovely Fi, I’m astounded by you! Loving this energy and this confidence. You’re going to do it, yes you are 🥰

[@sairuhbeth6467]

You truly have amazing strength and I know sometimes it doesn’t feel that way. You have days that really suck and you feel like you’re defeated. But you aren’t giving up! You are fighting an incredible battle. Every day that you don’t give up, no matter how hard it is, it is a win! You will defeat this illness, you will get Fi back! 🌺

[@NL-bs5xd]

[@cristinabock1310]

Really glad things are looking up ❤️

[@nicoleschreffler8645]

Your doing so well and I love the positivity. It will take time but you will get there and so will I. Sending my love and support ❤

[@peacelovemollyx]

I read something so amazing yesterday pertaining to making change. It went something like “the stonemason may strike a stone 100 times, yet it does not break until the 101st blow. It’s not because the 101st hit was that one to break the stone, but all others lead to the breakthrough.” So all in all even though progress may seem slow, keep going, keep going and one day your own stone will break and start resembling the work of art you are!! Consistency makes progress!

[@T-Mary76]

Thanks for your videos it’s reminding me to keep vigilant and persevere in my recovery, in my scariest times in recovery I just kept watching recovery videos all the time to keep motivation and strong mind xx

[@lorenspath6538]

Fi! I love the video ❤ You are so incredibly courageous. Love the 4 pairs of socks lol. Being angry at the disease is so on point, why the hell should that little horror win? You know you will conquer. I Hope you have many more hours & days like this. oh and love the dress! Can't wait to see you in it ❤

[@teainortakoy]

YAY go Fi- this is great determination! You can totally achieve all this.

[@prayer_tent]

[@hessiepessie1]

so so proud of you dear!! hang in there. You are doing so good. love from the Netherlands

[@rosiesmedley7993]

Hey Fi, I’m usually a silent viewer but I have been following along your journey for a good 5 months now and I am so so proud of how far you’ve come. I love your resilience and determination to keep going even when things are extremely tough. X

[@whitneybgriffin3047]

Keep going Fi! 💜

[@icecream_andcookies]

You're so much stronger than your mind lets you think you are!!!!

[@fostersfields5580]

Love that dress, and love to see your positive outlook today. Knowing where you are and where you want to be is a great thing, you should be proud of yourself for how far you've come, even with the few bumps along the way. You've got this!

[@morgainetaylor5777]

I can't wait to see you in your beautiful dress again, we're all cheering you on from the sidelines! You go girl!!!

[@kateflack9968]

Love this video. Wishing you all the luck

[@nicolepoole3501]

The dress is gorgeous and you look gorgeous in it!!

[@rainbowbrit]

Fi sometimes you just have to wing it....like I say on tiktok...you keep going no matter what the challenge is and that's tenacity. Be proud of the work you have done so far because it's not a small feat love. Be gentle on yourself and remember we love you

[@blackrox1411]

So proud of you! I love the dress

[@Bronwen.Forbes.Kotze1983]

Crunchie bar's are my favourite!

[@catherinemitchell3721]

I am happy to see a mire optimistic outlook from you Fi.But...I honestly think you're being unrealistic regarding your goals for your Birthday. It's incredibly unlikely that your physical state will have changed so dramatically in 4 weeks that walking around London will be a good idea.Of course it's up to you what you do; but you're putting alot of pressure on yourself. Best wishes for your long term recovery 💖

[@marisamaelaurie2797]

Yeeess💪 you got this🦋

[@donnalewis6323]

Hiya sweetheart you are doing such an amazing job keep going sweetheart 🥰🥰

[@AutumnGracebeautywithgrace]

Go fi 🥹😍

[@NinasHere4U]

❤️💐

[@caseyblue3732]

You know what will help you get your life back quicker? Inpatient. If you were able to do this on your own, at home you would have by now Fi. I am wishing reality sets in for you soon so you can have the life you really want.

[@catherinemitchell3721]

I totally agree. I've been there; & as difficult as inpatient is,it's really the only way to boost the calories and cut out exercise. Even incidental exercise- like standing. Though I wish Fi all the best,the recovery process is going to be so much longer at home. Also,inpatient provides more therapy opportunities.

[@ashleykratzer2346]

Girl, you need a jacket that has a personal heater in it, my mom is same way she is alwasy cold

[@adyferguson3846]

What do you want to do fi? Tell us everything you want to do?

[@serenamontague3874]

The more you return to having regular activities, the less you will hear the voices.
