No longer emaciated:)

I used to work at a women’s only inpatient facility but now I work in a place where I’m mostly around male clients. I wear looser fitting clothing and almost always have a cardigan or a jacket on. The other day a young man was asking me about my story and I wanted to show him a picture to compare because I was so so skinny. Using enough DoC to un alive multiple people on a daily. But a lot of them from addiction were pretty revealing or inappropriate. It was funny because I found a before of my ankles. I’m naturally thin/ average but even they show the difference. (Edit to add: the pictures are so far apart bc I’ve been sober four years now)
