- I decided to do multiple food increases in one day, which was not easy. But I know it was the next right step in moving forward. Despite it being extremely hot. Despite having a tricky time in my head, I knew I needed to keep going. So I did.

You go girl. You earned the right to request the lack of food comments. I keep watching every videos so please don't stop!!
Aww Thankyou lovely! I won’t don’t worry! I have 4 that I still need to post, just need a little more time to edit! Xxx
Your skin is looking gorgeous! I always think you look beautiful, but you are definitely on your way back! This was probably my favourite video ever!!! I am so beyond words proud of you!! You’ve got this. Day by day!
Aww Thankyou love! I’m certainly starting to feel better :) always. Day by day. We will get there! Xxx
Fi...your tone of voice, posture, clothes, glow ... getting robust and confident! The past self talk of deserving or not deserving... you seem to be loving yourself more and it shows! (Only downside is I am now addicted to magnum bars. They owe you marketing monies! *wink*)
Gretchen, I agree! All things I’ve been noticing too recently. Thankyou so much for noticing and saying.
Haha YAY! The billionaire ones?!! So so SO good! Xxx
I’m really proud of you. The progress is showing in the glow of your skin and how you speak. You can do this!
See Leisa, Thankyou so so much! 🥰❤️❤️
Good for you setting boundaries!!! I'll keep saying it you are finding your voice, you are finding your strength, you are seeming so much happier in your own progress. Very proud of you!!!
Thankyou Allison! I knew I needed to. So much love ❤️
The way you hold yourself and speak is showing how far you have come. I can visually see your confidence growing. It’s an inspiration. I feel like I am watching your personality bloom in front of my eyes.
Aww Katie! Thankyou so much. I've started noticing these things too, it feels really nice :)
The strength in your voice -even when you’re talking about struggling -is amazing to hear! You just sound so much more sure and determined,even in struggle. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 Keep going!! You’re doing so amazing.

Aww sarah, Thankyou so much! It wasn’t easy making those decisions but it has been worth it for feeling a lot more better. So much love and Thankyou always for your support xxx
You are such an inspiration to so many people. Have you ever considered becoming a counselor? You are helping so many people on this channel. Imagine if you could help others as a nutritionist or in a help center for others. Your rock!
Aww Lynne, thankyou so much :')
I have bounced through options career wise, I always wanted to go into clinical pscyh, counsellling area. I still do, but maybe in a few more years (I want to go into research first!).
But bascially - thankyou! Because you saying that means a lot to me :') xxx
This video makes me SO HAPPY for you, and unbelievably proud of you!!!!
Aww Thankyou so much becca! Xxx
Love this! ❤️ Go on Fi!! 💪 You're smashing those increases!! Totally understand the heat being really hard, as a neuro-typical person without any food issues I really struggle with it so can imagine how hard it must be for you- it makes all of your efforts all the more impressive- well done you!! That billionaire magnum looks amazing, I'm desperate to try one but can't find them anywhere 🙈 So so proud of you and all that you're achieving!! Keep up the great work!! ❤️ Xx ps chocolate for breakfast rules- when I did my finals at uni I had peanut butter toast with chocolate buttons on every day- it was amazing!! Xx
Thankyou Chloe! Thankyou for being so kind and understanding. The heat has challenged for both my ED recovery and autism wise, but I know all I can do is best navigate my way through.
Ahhh they’re so tasty! We got ours from tesco I believe!
Oh amazing! Thankyou Chloe. That makes me feel a lot better ❤️❤️❤️
So so so proud. And so proud of the fact YOU are proud of you as well. And girl you are glowing, honestly, you lookso so so beautiful! Fi is slowly coming back and she didn't come to play!! You are doing so so so well and well done for setting boundaries in terms of the comments - even that shows progress. Just in pure awe of your strength.Youre smashing it girly xxxxxxxxx
Aww Hanna thankyou so much! I hope so, I'm learning what helps and doesn't help. Mostly I can take most comments, just a couple that I find very difficult.
Thankyou for your endless support and encouragement, for always being so kind
Fi! Your skin is glowing! Gosh I’m so proud of you. Regardless of the bad days and struggles, you’re still pushing through and fighting back. You’re amazing fi

Thankyou so much love. It’s so hard because it’s just one or two comments amidst so many helpful ones. But I’ll just keep focussed on what I need to do. Thankyou so much 💗
When you didn't get out of the wheelchair, I was really concerned, but I look at you and see a confident, powerful woman! You didn't let that disappointment keep you down. You kept going.
All of us have challenges. They may not be as difficult as yours, you keep on going and you inspire me to take on my own challenges. Thank you for sharing your battle.
And who knew I would be so invested in someone across the pond as much as I am!
Oh love, Thankyou. I didn’t let it knock me back. I knew all I had to do was keep on going.

Look at you! Miss Rule Breaker, you! Kicking Anorexia’s ass every day. Best part is that you are giving yourself permission to actually delight in good tasting food and nutrition. You are fueling your body and powering through. Food is not good or bad. It does not have morals. It’s just fuel to get you where you want to go. Good tasting food that you can really enjoy is an extra special bonus. You are doing so well!
Oh bless you, thankyou!!! I agree, on the whole of this comment. It is okay to like food and eat the good tasting foods! So much love
Such an uplifting positive video Fi. You just continue to push through with such courage and determination. Just love all the protein bar and ice cream updates! You are really sparkling! 🌟💫💜🍦
See Thankyou Joanna! 🥹🥰❤️
Seeing you at the start and now is like night and day! You should be so proud of yourself Fi! You look incredible, you sound positive and I've loved seeing you take charge! You're awesome! Oooh...and I loved the green too you had on, so pretty. Courage doesn't always shout, it can sometimes be that slight whisper that tells you 'You can do this'...❤️
Oh Leigh! Thankyou so much. I’ve noticed some real shifts recently, which feels like hard work paying off.
I love that quote. Thankyou ❤️
You're amazing! You made it through all of the difficult challenges that were beyond your control (the weather) and still managed increases! You're absolutely rocking this journey!
Aww Thankyou Kayleigh! There were many challenges but yes, kept on going! So much love ❤️
Please do not listen to the naysayers. NO ONE should tell you what they think you should be eating. You are doing an amazing job. You are making great strides toward getting Fi back!!!!!! Only you know what your limits are with your disorder. I am so happy for you 🙂 Your green and black outfit was adorable and I rarely wear white because I will inevitably spill something on it - lol.
Thankyou so much Ann. I agree, it can be difficult to read. I have a wonderful treatment team who are the ones that can comment and advise on that!
Aw bless you, thankyou! Haha I had to really focus to not spill anything on my white outift! xxx
Always in your corner Fi, cheering you on at all times!! So so proud of the progress you’ve made so far, to me you seem much brighter in recent weeks despite your challenges, it’s such a privilege getting to see you open up more and discover who Fi is!! Keep going forward xxx
Alice, Thankyou so much my love. I certainly am starting to feel strong, day by day. Thankyou for your endless support love xxxxxxx

Aww Marly! Thankyou so much for such a kind comment.
Definitely - one day at a time. I’m so glad I can help any one in any way. That helps me! So much love xxx
10:10 you know what, I am going to have that ice cream on holiday that I've dreamt about for more than years now! Thank you xx🌱🍀🦋
YES! You’ve got this!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh I am so proud of you ! Job well done, Fi ! You're amazing !!
Aww Thankyou Lisa! Xxx
Well done you Fi, you are amazing. Keep challenging those negative thoughts. We don’t have to believe the first thought that comes into our heads. They are usually the intrusive ones that lie to us! Stay strong and keep fighting. Be so proud of yourself you are achieving fantastic things and it’s so lovely to see the difference in your happiness and strength. Some things are hard and challenging but keep thinking of your next goal and you will push through. I am trying to fight my anxiety too. I have watched each and every one of your CZcams videos, I know it’s not an ED but the recovery/theory is the same idea. Challenge repeat etc. So I watch you for inspiration and think well if Fi can be this brave the least I can do is try a bit harder!!
Thankyou so much Emily! You are always so kind.
I'm sorry you battle with anxiety, it can be so exhausting but you are doing amazingly by just keeping on taking it one day at a time. We will get there, we will! I'm so glad I can help in any way, that helps me knowing that I can help you my love. We've got this! xxx
You are such a warrior! You are SO inspiring on so many levels. Sending hugs from Tennessee USA ❤️
Aww Thankyou Gwen! Sending love from the UK ❤️❤️❤️
I am with you on the heat being an issue. It’s been SO hot here and I hate being sweaty and hot and I am that way from the second I leave my house in the morning until I come home to my air conditioning. 😭😭. Being hot is yucky.
It is so difficult to manage, I'm so sorry you struggle too. Sending (cool!) hugs your way xxx
We really do believe in you and are so proud of you. I can't begin to imagine your daily struggles but you are doing this. Sending lots of love xx
Aww Thankyou Lucy! Thankyou for always being so kind ❤️
I think you are amazing, I am in awe of what you are achieving. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Aww thankyou so much Anne-Marie! xxx
Fi thank you for your helpful videos! I watch your fight back from the beginning! I am ion recovery, too! And your videos motivated me very much! And you speak about realistic things : it s a fight and you struggle often! It s not easy , but woorth öt! Thank u! ❣️
Aww lou! I’m so glad I can help in anyway. That helps me ❤️ so much love xxx

You seem so much happier. Lovely to see ♥️
I am. Really am getting there. Thankyou ❤️
This video brings me so much joy and pride in how much you're pushing yourself forwards out of your own volition. Not because you have been told to, but because you know it will get you to where you need to be. Great to see that challenge repeat repeat works 🙌🌈 especially with the bagels!!
Hehe I'm using the hot weather to eat different ice creams and loving it!!😋🍦🍨 It's currently my new favourite food and always on the lookout for new flavours and types!
So glad you're beginning to recognise eating disorder thoughts now and push past them and carry on 💪♥️
THANK YOU for the footage of the clouds and rainbows at the end of this video. I share your passion, lol⛅🌈
Take care Fi and keep fighting back 💪❤️
Hello my love! I always look forward to your comments :)
I hope your ice cream search is going well! What is your favourite so far? Have you tried the caramel billionaires magnum? AMAZING!
Thankyou for your endless kindness and support
@@Finding_Fi awww bless you thank you, that's so lovely!!
I've literally just been to "Iceland" inside "The Range" and picked up some Vimto twister lollies that look interesting and some retro bubble gum flavour ones. Going back to my youth,lol. Think my favourite so far is biscoff ice cream lollies or actually traditional Mr Whippy ice cream from the ice cream van!! Lolllll. Not tried the billionaire magnum yet but it's on my list of ice cream to try!!
I look forward to your video’s. You are doing amazing. I know some days can be hard but you are strong and you can do it!
Aww Diana! This means so much to me - Thankyou. We can do this! ❤️
Wow, what big challenges, and you did them all! And with the heat on top of that. That was really amazing. Also, I loved your black and white tunic/jacket /kimono from the first day. I love that type of garment, perfect for hot days.
Thankyou! It was challenging but I know I needed to just keep on going.
Ah it’s so comfy! A nice layer without it being too hot.
Squeeee! You go girl!! Fi is coming back 💜
Aww thankyou Kim! xxx
I'M SO SO SO PROUD OF YOU FI!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I have been on social media break and from the last video I saw from you to now I can only say well done Fi! I hope you feel very proud of yourself because you have come very very far ❤️ sending you love always!
Aww Thankyou so much! This means an awful lot to me ❤️
Totally understood the comment thing etc, I'm the same.... you can always turn them off or get your mum to check before you read etc xx
That's a really good idea. I've put a few filters on which stops certain words which I hope will help just whilst I'm feeling vulnerablle to it
You’re looking so much brighter these days! Keep it up! ❤️❤️
Aww thankyou so much Emily! xxx
You look radiant and I love your smiling face. I'm so proud of you for your hard work and perseverance. You really inspire me to do the next right thing xx

Fiona your doing so well incredibly well take no notice of those comments your a star ⭐️ keep going
Thankyou so much Suzy! ❤️
I love your green top! 😊
Aww thankyou! From Zara a few years ago! xxx
Hello friend! We are sweltering in Virginia as well, but at least the air conditioning helps. And, sometimes I have to do errands in the evening when it’s cooler. Your nails came out so pretty- they looked angelic. Your dog looks like such a sweetheart. I wonder does he give sloppy kisses? And, may I say YAY for ice cream! Thank you for your post-loved the clouds!
Hey Karen! We have rubbish infrastructure here for heat, we are just not equipped for it! I'm glad you have air conditioning, though I hope it cools off soon nonetheless.
Aww thankyou! He does indeed, he is very affectionate.
The clouds were my favourite part of the heatwave - the storm after! xxx
I love your videos. I think pasta is a really common fear food. Well done for challenging it. I know I need to challenge condiments, I don’t know why it’s so hard other than that they seem unnecessary. Thank you for inspiring me to do this. I know bulimia isn’t the same, but you inspire me to keep recovering on my own.
Thankyou Hannah. It has been a challenging food for me for a number of years, which has always been so hard because it is one of my old favourites.
I'm so glad I can help you in any way at all love. We have got this love! xxx
Hello lovely girl ,I live in Italy where it is so hot,I cook the pasta in a pressure cooker so the kitchen does not heat up with the excessive boiling and gas.My son is on the spectrum and cannot eat gluten so often I have to cook more-we eat chickpea pasta ,oat and rice etc
Hey Emily! That is a really good idea. We don't have a pressure cooker but maybe one day!
I've never even heard of chickpea pasta :o xxx
You are doing so very well, keep going you have got this 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thankyou! xxx
looking so beautiful! Skin is glowing :) that cornetto ice cream looked AMAZING, definitely going to head to tescos today and try and find them too. Thanks for introducing them to us!
Aww Megan, Thankyou so much! The icecream was AMAZING! I highly recommend!!! Let me know what you think! Xxx
You look great !
Thankyou Deborah!
Oh Fi I am so sorry I just got to the part where you talked about not wanting comments on your food... I really just wanted to share some helpful tips that I even had no idea about but that I learned from reading A LOT as well as the fact that my parents were in charge of my recovery for a year (we did FBT. Even though yes, I am an adult... It is proven to be the best way for someone to fully recover from an ed. And it can be the easiest for the sufferer. Have you heard of this approach?) and did all of these things and were able to get me better much much sooner than I KNOW if I were to have done it on my own... Right now I am doing it on my own for the first time, my parents were always in charge when I got sick. But things are different now. Anyways, having to fight my own brain and thoughts and having to portion things myself and add these types of helpful foods and additions when my head is saying no, is so so hard!! This has been a whole new experience for me. Just a few other tips, hopefully you will take this as advice and not hate!!! I see all the hard work you have done too! So don't get the wrong idea :) .
Fat free or light products will not help you in your recovery. :( Every meal and snack should have a purpose and provide you with PROPER nutrition. Any time you eat it should have enough calories for someone in recovery and trying to repair years of damage. Ex. eating watermelon for a snack would be basically pointless. It provides next to nothing. Instead a GOOD snack would be like a bagel spread with butter on both sides, topped with nutella, a side of a banana or dried fruit and a cup of juice or even better some milk. Adding drinks to each meal and snack is also a great way to get more without adding much more volume. For instance, with each meal make an effort to have at least one cup of milk. This is what I did (ALL of the dietitians I saw also said this and it was part of the meal plans). And along side each snack have either some more milk or a cup of juice. I know you probably find it all so hard. I do too. But we must must remember our goals and the end. If we want to get there, things need to be done right. And having diet products and light things, for one is 100% disorded and NOBODY should be eating them and second, are pointless for us in recovery, our bodies (and basically ALL humans) NEED the fats and calories and sugars. So products that have those things taken out, don't do us any good. It just doesn't add up haha.
Another super easy way to add more nutrition is adding butter on ALL of your bread. Yes, even the bread or toast that you put peanut butter or nutella on. Add butter underneath, you don't even taste it, but it not only helps for someone in your case, but it actually does make the toast better haha! AND, it's a normal thing to do. As my dad told me 'Bread always has butter!' Even a mayo and ham sandwich. He would spread butter on it first then add mayo and the fillings. Same for a pb and j sandwich, butter first on both slices, then the fillings.
You can do this girl!! You REALLY can. You deserve full recovery and you don't deserve to be ill one second longer! All the best :)
You look happy and that makes me happy.
Aww thankyou Joan! xxx
You look so beautiful and your skin looks amazing! I’m so proud of you!
Aww Thankyou love! 💗
Something I did see that looked cool was crushed weetabix with a bit of water in a container, even a crushed up biscuit too, topped with say Greek yogurt, berries and a drizzle of warmed up biscoff and put in the fridge..... eg a cheesecake:) can change topping etc :)
Oh I've seen this! Weetabix cheesecake! Maybe something I'll venture into in the future, though I can't stand greek yoghurt so would need to switch that one out. But yes, a good idea! xxx
Proud of you! You are doing so great! :)
Aww thankyou Lotte! xxx
