ah, if i didnt wear so much foundation and blusher i'd go pink. what halizabeth's said's right, these few replies at caloriecount have made me a bit happier. thanks, everyone.

i'm a bit perkier than i was earlier on. my mum cooked me a bit of a greasy indulgent birthday tea with what little commodities we have, but it was lovely actually. she cooked me a slice of bacon, some beans with little pork sausages in, a mushroom omelette, lettuce and she stuck a candle in the omelette. then i had some wedding fruit cake with icing from a wedding i was at last saturday, which i hated, but which the cake made up for. it felt more birthdayish. it's that taste of icing isnt it? but that's made me a bit happier. isnt it strange the effects food has? one of my festival friends who i barely see, except in the summer season at festivals down south, called olly, he said since he's been eating more, yes he's put on weight, but he's found himself a lot happier. why is that?

naan breads well easy to find! it's for sale in all large supermarkets and even in little corner shops and newsagents, usually near pasta or curries or curry powders, or sauces and garnishings. just ask a store member, it's fudgeiting everywhere. haha, i've only had it once myself, with a korma, years ago, but yes, it's quite divine :)

talking of curries, dont they say milk's best with it? an indian woman on television said that your supposed to have it with milk, but i just prefer water. and men prefer lager! eek, i cant think of nothing worse! xx.

my mum thinks this too, but i've always thought white bread looks terrifying! lmao, you may laugh, but at the side of wholemeal or brown bread, it looks so cold and hard, and like it's heathcliff in wuthering heights - all aloof and arrogant, and hard to the touch and taste. whereas wholemeal and brown looks warmer and more fulfilling, and softer to the touch. lmao, dont you agree? xx.

Fidget, it's not like iw as trying to be offensive/ judgemental. Sorry if i got a little too upset and upset you too.
i now thereare people like me here, and thats why i came.... so i can see how other people can handle it. and i can't help but whine and comlain and let outmy feelings online once in a while.
w/e..... i got self-centered....

you didn't become self-centred, don't worry about it! aren't you allowed to think of yourself for once? i hate this whole self centred thing, and how people take a dislike to it. everyone's self centred whether they admit to it or not. who doesn't think about themselves for at least a minute a day? it's natural. and you have a right to post your concerns, as do i, and as does fidget, so your fine :)

and dont worry about this binging thing, just try not to let it happen again. i cant say much more on the fact, other than it's true, restriction makes binging happen more. i always find, or found, i binged more when i went out, when something exciting happened, when i was happy, or when i was nervous. emotional binging, perhaps. but i noticed the problem early and i'm trying to nip it in the bud. so it's good you've realised the problem. now start a fresh tomorrow morning, and maybe have some orange juice, toast, or some cereal or something for breakfast, and have a good dieting day with lots of nice foods and things, and then you'll wake up the morrow after that, and feel so much better. it always works for me, and you feel more in control as each day passes.

as it happens, i went out on a night out last night and had a ton of alcohol and i feel a bit guilty today. but i'm just thinking, it was a one-off, and fortunately, i didn't give in to my sweet tooth on the way home at takeaways and train station cafes when i needed to sober up. i waited till i got home, and then had some soup. so i feel tons better than i would have done if i'd've had the muffins at the lemon tree, or a f*****g chinese takeaway.

AND, i dont know if you believe in the bible or not, but there is a bible quote which i'm actually getting tatooed - dont worry, i'm not going to bloody preach, lol - but it is 'dont worry about tomorrow, as tomorrow will worry about itself. each day has enough trouble of it's own'. :) xx.

haha, that's what my nan and my great-nan used to believe - especially my great-nan! they didn't believe in this diet or calorie counting, god forbid, fad, and they just thought you should have like a proper meal, but a smaller amount. on a sandwich plate instead of like a proper dinner plate, perhaps. i do that anyway, but end up usually having the same bloody amount because i just pile it a tad higher, but shhhhhhh, i try not to! lol.

but then again, they werent really right. i mean, i never met my great-nan as she died before i was born by a few months, but my nan really can't comment on her weight. i don't talk to her any more, but she was piling on the pounds like anything. maybe that sounds mean, talking about my 70-odd year old nan like that, but it's true. she just ate s**t. ice buns, pastries, four meals sometimes a day, chips, everything. it was rubbish. i lived with her and my uncle for 11 somewhat morbid years, and my diet was appalling, yet they called me fat. all we ever ate was potato, chips, processed southern fried chicken, or meat and potato pasties. maybe we'd have a curry. i never had any meat or anything, becuase my uncle was this supposed vegetarian and my nan licked his arse so much i had to suffer and not have meat for 11 years, because it put him off his appetite, and if i even mentioned the word 'pork chop', i'd be looked at in disgust. fortunately now though, i live with my mum, and she loves meat. if anything, we have it too much, and i actually had to say to her today when i noticed this morning she was thawing out two pieces of steak on the sink side for tea later on, that i didnt want steak, and i wanted chicken instead, because we'd had meat all week! xx.

bloody hell fire. i was only posting a comment! and i am not promoting starvation, i'm simply offering my advice. whether the person heeds the advice or not is entirely up to them, but it's there anyway, for all to 'consume' :)

here's the scoop:

haha! i love it, even if it wasnt intentional! pizza and ice cream, how perfect :) xx.

lmao ironically, my local pizza hut has just bloody burnt down. i'm sure they got bloody speedy service. haha.

but i prefer thin'n'crispy too, and so does my mum! i dont know what it is, but stuffed crusts and all this pepperoni and cheese actually in the crust, aswell as deep pan, they just seem gluttonous. and whats the point of having a topping, if the toppings in the base? and deep pan, i've never been a fan of anyway, because it's like eating a bloody hot sandwich then - like a loaf of bread with hot filling, yet it's open. it's just weird. i'd say thin'n'crispy's definitly better, and you don't feel as bloated after. haha, which means, as majorie dawes off little britain said 'you can eat twice as much!'. lmao. you cant really. dont worry. well, you can, but then you will be bloated, so that would just be stupid. :) xx.

ah, i haven't done one of these in a while, and a notification in my email telling me i had a mysterious reply's made me want to do one! *spooky dance*

so....

for brekkie, i had half a slice of brown bread toast with marmite, a glass of smooth orange juice (tasted like f***ing mixed fruit juice though, ick, i think it was slightly off), and a cup of milky tea with three sugars.

for lunch, i had a coffee with semi-skimmed milk, three sweetners, and a green apple

for tea, i had a relatively small-medium steak, with lettuce, peppers, a few beetroot, low fat salad cream and a glass of water, with the added fruit tasty stuff to make it taste less watery. then i had a muller rice pudding pot, in 'original' flavour. fun. x.

lollll.. I despise butter but LOVE peanut butter. and agelikiaddcition, didn't you say you hated calories as well?  I'm sorry, but this is already too funny.

 lmao yes i'm the calorie hater! infact, if i could consume 0 calories a day, i'd be the happiest lassie alive. :)

and to xeonicus, above me, i know what you mean about pecans, and stuff like you get those little bags of bombay mixes and nuts and s**t from vending machines. when i was first at college, i tried one of the bombay mixes, which tasted like utter rabbit food, but i thought, ooh, low calorie content, and then when i checked the back, it had like half a days worth in! xx.

argh! peanut butter! it's from HELL. i hate this 'healthy fat' things, in my rather large book, there's no such thing as a healthy fat. even the word fat repulses me. my mate lee, well, he's not my mate, but this lad i know, called lee, reckons just because he used to suffer apparently from anorexia but now he's recovered (even though he has a phobia of touching apple stalks, for some bizarre reason, and he has a fear of the smell of greggs bakery), that he's some form of nutrition expert, and he constantly tells me peanut butter is good. it's NOT. i remember the last time somebody told me peanuts and the like were good, and i was like 11 and naive, and i went onto this peanut diet, where everytime i was hungry, i ate those peanut cereal bars called tracker, and i went up to 10 and a half stone! and when i questioned why, it's because peanuts are like the most calorific things ever. and teamed with butter? isn't butter just pure fat anyway?

it's all disgusting, i'm convinced.

luckily, i hate butter anyway, and i've never touched it since i was 3. i dont know why, but i always remember trying a ham and cheese and butter sandwich at my nan's, and the butter stuck to the roof of my mouth, and it disgusted me so much, i havent touched it since.

lo-fat salad cream rules all  xx
