About Fighting Thinspo

Hi There!!

Fighting Thinspo is dedicated to my youngest daughter who is 16 and in recovery from a serious Eating Disorder. My daughters ED developed in response to exposure to thinspo and extreme weight loss blogs at a time in her life when she was very vulnerable.

A few snoopy trips into the world of Tumblr revealed the shocking world of thinspo, pro ana, pro mia and extreme weight loss and left me feeling I should do something to try and steer others off this path.

What you will find on Fighting Thinspo is information about ED's , links to resources such as help lines and ED Information Websites and links to some excellent recovery blogs. There are also lots of inspirational quotes and messages and respect for all body types. I also welcome your submissions so PLEASE if you have something to say about EDs, perhaps a recovery story, or any issue that you feel passionate about Fighting Thinspo would love to hear it.

I also want to make it clear I have no formal qualifications in this field and the information provided here is general and common sense in nature and freely available from other reputable sites.

So Welcome, please let this blog be a island of positivity in the vast ocean of thinspo, extreme weight loss and self harm blogs. Fighting Thinspo is a ‘no judgement” sanctuary, and if you are any of those aforementioned blogs you are most WELCOME , I especially want you here.

Mum on a Mission xx
