What part of Australia? I'm in WA - the best place here is Hollywood hospital in Nedlands, I was unable to go here though because my insurance didnt cover me for it and it's quite expensive...i was really lucky though because i did my IP through a public hospital and it wasn't a bad experience at all compared to what i'v heard other people have, everyone was soooo lovely to me and i made some real friends! |

great to see everyones opinions! i spose it really does come down to the certain characteristics of each persons ED; for some, calorie counting is pure evil! yet for others, its a helpful assistance to recovery. i guess it's just about figuring out whats best for us and accepting that everyones different and unique! :) x

Is it just me, or does anyone else have the opinion that just as calorie counting is not the only way to make sure you lose weight, it is also NOT the only way to help you gain. I'm against it. It's a horrible controlling habit. It was my enemy at the height of my ED and it's not a part of 'healthy normal eating' which is what we're all on the road to, right? :) Just seeing a dietician and making sure you're getting all the required nutrients and food portions should be what gaining is focused on. Don't gain a week?, well then think your upped meal plan as adding food 'quanity/size', not adding 'calories'. That's my (and my dieticians) opinion anyway. Todays: B - Cup of fruit & nut muesli with 200ml vanilla yoghurt topped with blueberries and almonds S - Large apple, trail muesli bar L - Rye sandwich with 1/4 an avacado, LC cream cheese wedge and spinach. 250ml iced coffee S - Will be a banana with peanut butter and lots of carrot with hommus... never liked peanut butter OR hommus but the more i have it the more i love it! D - Mum's making spinach and fetta pie *drools*, served with veg S - Vanilla-choc sundae + 3 lovely (not) Ensure's Going travelling this Friday for about a week, so excited!

Using the same utensils, plates and bowls Drinking water first thing in the morning (probably a good habit!) Having meals at the same time everyday!! (getting slightly anxious if i have it a bit earlier) Already working on the food timing habit, i have pushed my meals back 0.5-1 hour in the past week because i knew i was just eating way too late. And who cares if lunch happens to be an hour earlier than i'd usually have it, right? If you feel like eating then, then just go forr it:) |
