. In recovery It’s so important to ALWAYS be on your own side To NEVER stop rooting for your own success. You’ve got to find that part of you that WANTS to recover And hang on to it for dear life... . Because that’s the part of you that’s going to help you through the discomfort of making the changes you need to make As you continue along the road to freedom . I know at times it can be really hard to find that part of yourself And it can feel so much easier to just succumb to the darkness you’ve been swallowed by Because it seems as if there’s no way out… . But I want to remind you of this: . If at any point you’ve come to the realization that something is definitely wrong with the way things are That you’re not happy living in a state of self-destruction And that you need help Then that’s a telltale sign that you’re going to make it . If you’ve chosen recovery You’re already a winner. So hang in there & see this battle through to your victory. Because as you do You’ll begin to realize that the old you isn’t really a stranger But rather an old friend waiting on the other side of the darkness with an outstretched hand. All hope is not lost This isn’t how your life has to be. You were faced with this obstacle because you are strong enough to overcome it. You ARE a warrior Sending you all my love, Breh . . . . . #adultswitheds #eatbetternotless #holisticrecovery #mindsetcoach #femininepower #1200caloriediet #fearfood #edrecoveryfamily #caloriecountingdiet #ditchthescale #ditchthediet #amenorrhea #bulimiarecovery #recoverywarriors #vegansofinstagram #orthorexianervosa #getyourperiod #calorierestriction #orthorexiarecovery #anorexianervosarecovery #undereating #thesoulfillmentapproach #veganrecovery #bingeeatingdisorderrecovery #bingeeating #edrecovery (at National Eating Disorders Association) https://www.instagram.com/brehliemaryann/p/BvCHR06ADch/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1a3c1tik0k53o

Being in remission, when you’re not at the beginning but you’re not “recovered” either, feels exceptionally nebulous. I remember Marya Hornbacher detailing it in Wasted–the boring aftermath. Sometimes, I feel that way. But mostly, it’s just strange. I’m no longer driven by a negative energy balance. I’m no longer frenetic and obsessive–traits I’d attributed to my temperament that proved to be malnutrition-induced. I’m less numerical and more fluid. I am not a perfectionist by nature, so my non-specific anxiety has mostly dissipated, and can more clearly identify trauma-related anxiety. I don’t wake up in hunger and wander to the gym at odd hours of the night. I sometimes find myself missing that discipline, though I recognize now it was compulsion. For so long, my life was governed by anorexia, then controlled entirely by professionals. Now, I call the shots. I eat because I choose to, though it now feels non-negotiable like the eating disorder once did. It almost feels like I know too much, now. Like my desire to have an unrecognized, ineffectual eating disorder is so painfully unrealistic that even skipping a meal is so tinged with redundancy–I’ve gotten where it lead me before and it was never where I wanted it to lead, so why bother now? It’s a complete paradigm shift so I’m trying not to over-analyze it, but I can’t help it. It’s so odd. My drive is my own, and the autonomy feels good between my fingers. Now I just have to learn to equate the autonomy with the fuller hips, the sturdier presence, and the body that clearly has been built up from its time of being torn down. I’ve been growing for so long; it’s time I learn to be grown.

Time to go to work as a massage therapist when it feels like I need a massage because idk why I woke up with my neck and shoulder hurting and my brain saying, "Look up the symptoms of meningitis." 😂 But seriously I have a difficult time spending to get worked on myself and/or thinking it is "worth it" oh well. When I get there, God willing, He'll give me strength. I sometimes contemplate "resting" but in my mind can't justify how or why I need more rest at times....okay time to go. #Faith #ActuallyED #AdultswithEDs #EDrecovery #eatingdisorderrecovery #OCDrecovery #anxietydisorder #perception #mentalhealth #mindfulness

Threw a bunch of stuff together for lunch and somehow it managed to look aesthetically pleasing so I took a picture 💁🏽‍♀️ I threw a bunch of veggies and tofu in a pan and made the sweet potatoes in an air fryer and oh my gosh it all turned out really good like I had really low expectations for this meal y’all 😅 I’ve been trying to get more creative in the kitchen. I tend to get used to certain foods and will literally wind up eating the same thing over and over again. Or I tend to avoid the oven and the spice rack all together and wind up with some really crazy food combos...like really guys I had ramen, cheese and an apple for lunch one day all to avoid cooking 🙈 Yeah some of it is probs my eating disorder but I also think I’m just lazy in the kitchen 😂 Regardless though I’m trying to switch it up which is never a bad thing! Happy Monday folks! . . . . . . #recovery #edrecovery #eatingdisorderrecovery #edwarrior #edrecoveryfamily #adultswitheds #selfcare #mentalhealth #hope #healing #strength (at Oviedo, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs6RwGGFTcO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ki41eleb5mvn

. THE REALITY OF UNDEREATING There are a few things no diet company will tell you about calorie restriction: . It's unsustainable And before long, you'll stop seeing results from your workouts You're weight loss will plateau Because your body will adapt to the amount of food you're eating And burn less calories to try & save energy . You'll begin to feel tired, mentally & physically, all the time And you'll find that all you can think about is food, even after you just ate . You'll get irritable Have no sex drive And maybe even lose your period Because your starving brain is focused on things other than procreation . And if you keep pushing to burn energy you dont have.. Eventually you'll begin to self destruct Literally . Your body will destroy itself for energy Your skin, hair & nails will get dry & brittle Your bones will become weak And it'll get harder & harder to focus because your brain won't be able to function properly . If diet companies & media influencers were honest about the results of calorie restriction They wouldn't leave these side effects out . Quality is so much more important than quantity when it comes to diet & exercise If you want to see results in your happiness & confidence You've got to make SHIFTS in the way you think, live & treat yourself . In my 1:1 program I help you ditch your dieting habits & reconnect with who you are on the inside I coach you through the process of creating the lifestyle & mindset shifts that're going to give you the results you really want to see AKA More happiness, confidence & a deeper connection with your mind, body & soul . Want details on how to apply? . Say "YES" below & I'll send them your way! .

If there are any 25+ struggling with ed, plz msg or reblog so I can follow. Sooo many young ones in this community and I'm not about to encourage these young ones (or anyone), but it'd be nice to have more ppl that I can relate to. Married with kids would be awesome, but not necessary. Also, anyone dealing with these issues for 10+ years would be helpful.

How Many Republicans Voted For Aca
New Post has been published on https://www.patriotsnet.com/how-many-republicans-voted-for-aca/
How Many Republicans Voted For Aca
Tumblr media
Why Is The Aca Misunderstood
House Republicans Pass Bill To Repeal And Replace ACA
Oftentimes, how Obamacare is discussed and framed has led to misunderstanding of the ACA.
The legislation is a series of provisions, opening up a marketplace of different tiered plans from which citizens can choose. Its not a health insurance plan in and of itself, the way some anti-ACA-leaning media outlets tend to depict it.
When asked why there tends to be so much confusion over what exactly Obamacare is, John McDonough, DrPH, MPA, a professor of public health practice in the Department of Health Policy & Management at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and director of executive and continuing professional education, said its because American healthcare is confusing to begin with.
Ask Americans to explain Medicare and or Medicaid, and you will observe at least as much befuddlement as with the ACA. Our U.S. healthcare system is the most complicated and impenetrable to understand and make sense of on the planet, McDonough told Healthline.
He should know. McDonough was there at the beginning.
He worked on the development and passage of the ACA in the role of a senior advisor on national health reform to the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
In the early days around 2010, when people would complain to me that they didnt understand the ACA, I would ask them politely how well they understand the U.S. health system in general, he said.
Affordable Health Care For America Act
This article is part of a serieson
e
The Affordable Health Care for America Act was a bill that was crafted by the United States House of Representatives of the 111th United States Congress on October 29, 2009. The bill was sponsored by Representative Charles Rangel. At the encouragement of the Obama administration, the 111th Congress devoted much of its time to enacting reform of the United States’ health care system. Known as the “House bill, HR 3962 was the House of Representatives’ chief legislative proposal during the health reform debate.
On December 24, 2009, the Senate passed an alternative health care bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act . In 2010, the House abandoned its reform bill in favor of amending the Senate bill ” rel=”nofollow”>reconciliation process) in the form of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.
Obamacare Survives After Supreme Court Rejects Latest Republican Challenge
The Supreme Court ruled against Texas and other Republican-led states seeking to strike down the Affordable Care Act in its latest test before the nation’s highest court.
The top court voted 7-2 to reverse an appeals court ruling that had struck down the law’s individual mandate provision.
Two of former President Donald Trump’s court picks, Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, joined the majority in rejecting the Republican effort.
President Joe Biden praised the ruling as a major victory and vowed to expand Obamacare.
The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 on Thursday against Texas and other Republican-led states seeking to strike down Obamacare in the law’s latest test before the nation’s highest court.
The court reversed an appeals court ruling that had struck down the law’s individual mandate provision. Chief Justice John Roberts and fellow conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett joined Justice Stephen Breyer’s opinion, as did Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
Breyer said Texas and the other states that challenged the law failed to show they were harmed by it.
“Neither the individual nor the state plaintiffs have shown that the injury they will suffer or have suffered is ‘fairly traceable’ to the ‘allegedly unlawful conduct’ of which they complain,” Breyer wrote.
Biden also vowed to expand Obamacare, a central promise of his presidential campaign.
The Supreme Court agreed in March 2020 to hear the case.
“What a day,” he added.

Smith is the only remaining Republican representing New Jersey, after Democrats flipped four seats in the Garden State in the midterms. Smith voted against the GOP health care plan in 2017. He also broke with his party on the tax overhaul, along with other lawmakers from high-tax states. Smith is not a DCCC target and is running for re-election in a district Trump carried by 15 points in 2016. Inside Elections rates his race Solid Republican.
Fact Check: How Many Gop Senators Voted To Repeal Obamacare
Tumblr media Tumblr media
By Sara Reynolds
The United States Senate voted three times in July to repeal all or part of the Affordable Care Act]. All of the measures failed. Commenting on the apparent change of position among Republicans who voted against repeal on July 26, Senator Ben Sasse claimed, With just one exception, every member of the Republican majority already either voted for repeal or explicitly campaigned on repeal.
Is Sasse correct? Did every current Republican senator, except one, previously vote for or campaign on repeal of the Affordable Care Act?
Yes. With the exception of Sen. Susan Collins , all 49 current Republican senators who were in office in 2015 voted that year to repeal elements of the ACA . Seven Republican senators who were in office in 2015, including Collins, voted against a similar bill on July 26, 2017.
Senators John Neely Kennedy and Todd Young , both elected in 2016, campaigned to repeal the ACA. Sen. Luther Strange , appointed in 2017 and currently running in a special election, has also campaigned on repeal. All three senators voted to repeal the ACA on July 26.
Recommended Reading: Who Is Right Republicans Or Democrats
Rep Denver Riggleman Of Virginia
The Virginia freshman, a member of the hard-line Freedom Caucus, explained his vote partly as one to protect pre-existing conditions, which he said hit close to home for me and I campaigned on continuing healthcare coverage for those affected.
The healthcare system is broken and Obamacare is a major part of the problem, but we should proceed with caution as we try and fix it. This resolution certainly doesnt help solve the problem, but hopefully will allow us to have a productive discussion on healthcare, he said in an emailed statement.
Trump carried Rigglemans 5th District seat;by 11 points in 2016. Riggleman defeated Democrat Leslie Cockburn by 7 points last fall in a race that got some national attention. Democrats are not targeting him in 2020. Inside Elections rates his race Solid Republican.
Russia Sanctions Headed To Trump’s Desk Will He Sign
Some GOP senators worried the measure would go back to the House, where leaders would put it on the floor, pass it and send it to Trump who has said he would sign whatever lands on his desk when it comes to Republican-passed health care legislation.
Before the vote, at 10:43 p.m. ET, Trump was rooting them on in a tweet: “Go Republican Senators. Go!”
Afterward, it was a different story, with the president tweeting at 2:25 a.m. ET that those who voted no had “let the American people down.”
It’s somewhat ironic that McCain was the one to derail what seemed like a sure Trump victory . After all, Trump’s comments about the former prisoner of war were among the earliest to land the then-candidate in controversy.
“He’s not a war hero,” Trump said in 2015 of McCain. “He was a war hero, because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured. He’s been losing so long he doesn’t know how to win anymore.”
That was likely never lost on McCain.

Democrats Sought To Put Gop Colleagues On Record With Symbolic Vote
Democratic congressional campaigns have already made health care an early focus of their 2020 messaging, and House Democrats bolstered that effort Wednesday with a symbolic vote that sought to once again put Republicans on record on the issue.
Eight Republicans sided with Democrats on the nonbinding resolution, which the House adopted, 240-186.;The measure condemned;the Trump administrations support for invalidating the 2010 health care law in its entirety.;The Department of Justice, in a new filing last week, backed a Texas judges decision to strike down the law.;
Three Republicans; New Yorks;Tom Reed and John Katko and Pennsylvanias Brian Fitzpatrick had voted in January to authorize the House general counsel to intervene in the lawsuit to defend the health care law. All three also voted for the resolution Wednesday.
One Democrat 15-term Minnesota Rep. Collin C. Peterson bucked his party and voted against the resolution. Hes one of the last Democrats remaining in the House who opposed the 2010 health care law and is likely the last Democrat who can hold his heavily agricultural 7th District seat.
Democrats were otherwise united in supporting the resolution, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launched positive Facebook ads touting their vulnerable members votes to protect families with pre-existing conditions.

Schumer: ‘we Can Work Together Our Country Demands It’
Until the end, passage on the Health Care Freedom Act, also dubbed the skinny repeal, was never certain. Even Republicans who voted for it disliked the bill.
The skinny bill as policy is a disaster. The skinny bill as a replacement for Obamacare is a fraud. The skinny bill is a vehicle to getting conference to find a replacement, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said at a Thursday evening news conference hours before the vote alongside fellow Republicans McCain, Ron Johnson and Bill Cassidy, before the details were released.
The skinny repeal was far from Republicans campaign promise of also rolling back Medicaid expansion, insurance subsidies, Obamacare taxes, and insurance regulations.
Many Republicans who did vote for it said they were holding their nose to vote for it just to advance the process into negotiations with the House of Representatives.
The legislation included a repeal of the individual mandate to purchase insurance, a repeal of the employer mandate to provide insurance, a one-year defunding of Planned Parenthood, a provision giving states more flexibility to opt out of insurance regulations, and a three-year repeal of the medical device tax. It also would have increased the amount that people can contribute to Health Savings Accounts.
Leigh Ann Caldwell is an NBC News correspondent.
Watch Sen John Mccain Cast ‘no’ Vote On ‘skinny’ Repeal
It isn’t clear what comes next, but the collapse of some insurance markets around the country serve as an incentive for Republicans and Democrats to hold hearings and fix the problems with health care.
Most Republicans never embraced the different iterations of legislation they crafted, nor the process by which it was constructed. Even on the last-ditch effort at a bare-bones bill, Republicans couldnt reach agreement. Over the past two days, many rejected a plan that would have partially repealed and replaced Obamacare and a measure that would have just repealed it. The repeal vote was the same bill that passed the Senate and the House in 2015 when former President Barack Obama vetoed it.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, stood against every version of the legislation even in the face of immense pressure. The Trump administration threatened to withhold federal resources from Alaska because of her opposition, according to the Alaska Daily News. Murkowski herself said the next day in response to the report that she would not characterize it as a “threat.”
“I sat there with Senator McCain. I think both of us recognize that its very hard to disappoint your colleagues,” Murkowski told NBC News after the vote. “And I know that there is disappointment because it was the three votes that Senator McCain, Senator Collins, and I cast that did not allow this bill to move forward. And that is difficult.”
“John McCain is a hero and has courage and does the right thing,” Schumer said.

When Did Obamacare Start
The timeline of key events leading up to the passage of the Obamacare law began in 2009. Here is a list of those events, along with key provisions that went into place after the law was enacted.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and a group of Democrats from the House of Representatives reveal their plan for overhauling the health-care system. Its called H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act.
;Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy, a leading supporter of health-care reform, dies and puts the Senate Democrats 60-seat supermajority required to pass a piece of legislation at risk.
;Democrat Paul Kirk is appointed interim senator from Massachusetts, which temporarily restores the Democrats filibuster-proof 60th vote.
;In the House of Representatives, 219 Democrats and one Republican vote for the Affordable Health Care for America Act, and 39 Democrats and 176 Republicans vote against it.
In the Senate, 60 Democrats vote for the Senates version of the bill, called Americas Healthy Future Act, whose lead author is senator Max Baucus of California. Thirty-nine Republicans vote against the bill, and one Republican senator, Jim Bunning, does not vote.
Actions To Hinder Implementation
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Under both ACA and the AHCA, CBO reported that the health exchange marketplaces would remain stable. However, Republican politicians took a variety of steps to undermine it, creating uncertainty that adversely impacted enrollment and insurer participation while increasing premiums. Concern of the exchanges became another argument for reforms. Past and ongoing Republican attempts to weaken the law have included:

Rep Pete Stauber Of Minnesota
The freshman flipped a longtime Democratic seat;in northeast Minnesota that Trump had carried by 16 points in 2016. Its a largely white, working-class district, where Trumps populist appeal resonated. The former Duluth police officer ran a campaign ad last year about his son Issac, who has Down syndrome, and he talked about the importance of insurance companies covering pre-existing conditions. Democrats are not targeting this seat in 2020. Inside Elections rates the race Likely Republican.
Why Supporters Pushed For The Bill
The PPACA addresses the needs of the 46 million uninsured Americans;
strengthens the Medicare system by closing the donut hole in prescription coverage, and cutting waste and fraud while guaranteeing preventive care without co-pays;
provides health insurance to low-income children;
funds cutting-edge research into cures for diseases;
gives patients the clout to challenge the decisions of health insurers and;
increases access to care by making it impossible for insurers to shun the sick.
In the past, insurers either refused to cover patients suffering from pre-existing conditions, or charged them unaffordable premiums. As House Speaker Nancy Pelosi noted shortly before the legislation passed: “If you’re a woman that’s a pre-existing condition; if you’re a woman of child-bearing age and you’ve had children that’s a pre-existing condition. If you can’t have children, it’s a pre-existing condition. If you have a C-section, it’s a pre-existing condition. A victim of domestic abuse, it’s a preexisting condition.”
Under the PPACA, Americans would no longer have to worry about being denied insurance. Pelosi urged her audience to “Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer, a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance. Or that people could start a business and be entrepreneurial and take risks, but not be job-locked because a child has a child has asthma or diabetes or someone in the family is bipolar “

The House Votes To Repeal Obamacare
Republicans overcame an embarrassing early failure to pass their replacement for the Affordable Care Act with few votes to spare. Now, they await the political fallout.
For House Republicans, the burden of an unfulfilled campaign promise had simply become too much to bear alone.
And so on Thursday, after an embarrassing early failure and weeks of fits and starts, a narrow GOP majority passed legislation to partially repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act that even many of its supporters conceded was deeply flawed. The party-line vote was 217-213, with 20 Republicans voting against. The bill now goes to the Senate, where its fate is uncertain at best.
The American Health Care Act scraps the Obamacare mandates that people buy health insurance and that employers provide it, eliminates most of its tax increases, cuts nearly $900 billion from Medicaid while curtailing the programs expansion, and allows states to seek a waiver exempting them from the current laws crucial prohibition against insurers charging higher premiums to people with pre-existing conditions. Conservatives complained that the bill did not fully repeal the 2010 law, while moderates blanched at its cuts to Medicaid and its weakening of its most popular consumer protections.
Attempts To Change Or Repeal
Schumer slams GOP senators in vote to protect ACA
Read Ballotpedia’s fact check »
The Affordable Care Act was subject to a number of lawsuits challenging some of its provisions, such as the individual mandate and the requirement to cover contraception. Four of these lawsuits were heard by the United States Supreme Court, resulting in changes to the law and how it was enforced. In addition, since the law’s enactment, lawmakers in Congress have introduced and considered legislation to modify or repeal parts or all of the Affordable Care Act. Finally, between 2010 and 2012, voters in eight states considered ballot measures related to the law. This section summarizes the lawsuits, legislation, and state ballot measures that attempted to change, repeal, or impact enforcement of parts of the law.

This picture was taken on this day last year, I have to say that because Facebook hates me today. It’s funny because I actually wore this sweater this morning. I can’t believe it’s been one year since I have been out of residential treatment. To say I am surprised that I have made it this far in recovery since then would be an understatement. Not saying I haven’t fallen back down, I have fallen flat on my face a whole lot in the past year but the difference is each time I have had the strength to get back up, and each time I have wanted to get back up. I may have been fresh out of residential but I felt hopeless, and I remember sobbing and literally telling my treatment team in day program back home that “I wish my disorder had killed me.” One year later and I’m so glad I didn’t die. This isn’t one of those “it gets better” posts because honestly I hate those. Yes, it gets better but some days it feels like it gets worse. Bad days happen..good days happen and probably the most important thing I have learned in the past year is that the good days feel pretty damn good and make fighting through the bad days worth it. In case nobody has told you today, you are brave, you are strong, and keep fighting. . . . . . #recovery #edrecovery #edulting #eatingdisorderrecovery #edwarrior #adultswitheds #mentalhealth #mentalillness #hope #healing https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs0uv10FZ__/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p4gryq2keb20

. YES This is 100% normal And it’s actually a really good thing! Night sweats are a sign that your body is responding well to the additional energy you’ve been giving it The sweating & ravenous hunger you experience in recovery Is a result of hyper-metabolism. . While you were restricting your intake Your body adapted by slowing your metabolism waaay down in attempt to slow the rate of your self destruction . Now that you’re resting & feeding your body recovery amounts It’s taking all the new energy & using it to repair all the damage that’s been done from restriction. And just like how a surgeon prefers you to be sedated when they operate on you Your body finds it easiest to do the most work while you are asleep Because you’re not simultaneously burning the energy it’s trying to use while carrying out your daily activities. . Night sweats may happen off & on throughout recovery But eventually your metabolism will normalize again And you’ll be able to sleep through the night without waking up in a puddle. .

Waking up in the morning, your skin feels tight across your body, and you feel lighter. You get slightly euphoric, heading off to the bathroom for morning weigh-in. You know you're finally going to see the scale reflect what you feel, for once. Get on the scale, and it reads -0.5
DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!
