110, BDay Lunch at restaurant, Rest DayNov 08 2009 10:43
110, bmi 19, highest in a while!
so we had a bday party for my mother at a restaurant w some ppl. it was a buffet. i think it was a success!
i was present, in the conversations, had fun.
ate what i WANTED.
had a bagel w/cream cheese and lots of lox and tomatos.
small amount of REALLY cheesy ziti w/cheese
fruit salad
most delicious apple, berry something crumble compote w/ delic crust and sooo good!
then just random tastes of other foods, some cheese, sauteed salmon, another cake, umm, idk, cant remember, i was stuffed at the end!
this was all like 1 hr after having finished bfast too
ARGHHH-and then i got hungry an hr later and had who the heck knows how much trail mix??!!
Had dinner (and snacks) as normal, parents having had NOTHING other than CLEAR BROTH the rest of the day-wtf?!!
well done matie youve worked so hard h x |
thnks helen its scarey, not gonna lie!! |
i know hun but its the right thing to do we are all here for you , i shall be there myself very soon x |
Well done! :) Are you aiming for 20+, if you don't mind me asking? I actually went a 2 pounds over my 20 BMI since being at uni. I had a moment where I was having a touch time with it, but seriously- who cares! Plus it's only two pounds- people fluctuate that much over a couple hours, it means nothing. It feels good to be healthy, eh? |
thank u! im aiming for a bmi of 20 as a minimum. b4 losing weight i was on the heavier side, lost my period at a bmi of 20 from excercise and not eating well, i THINK my body would be happier at a higher weight. EVOLUTION- so ur maintaining at a bmi of 20 give or take? r u excercising? do u still have ur period? |
I love (chinese) buffet, because you can have a bite of everything and you don't feel bad for wasting food since everybody does it xD What's lox??? |
Lox is smoked salmon, its like very thin and ppl mostly eat it w cream cheese, often on a bagel, its really really good! this was like a brunch buffet w/american type food. |
I just can't get into lox! is it anything like the taste of sushi when they put cream cheese in it? I love bagels with CC but not the lox, I just can't bring myself to try it! |
ugh, i hate sushi, even california roll, had it w raw fish twice and i thonk i got food poisoning. lox looks raw i guess, and idk if id necessaraly have it if i wasnt rasied on it, but its amazing, i mean w cc on a bagel, its deff a top 5 meal for me! how r u doing Bsh? u never responded about going over a bmi of 19? hope ur doing well! |
Glad to see you're doing so great! You've really been making great progress. :) I'm with you on the sushi thing. :x I don't like any seafood acually.... yuck! |
GOOBY-i LOVE seafood-shrimp+lobster mainly, but like raw seafood, no thanks!! ya know, eventho ur like 10 yrs younger than i am, and a male, i just wanted to let u know that u really motivate me, keep it up! |
I grew up in a household full of people who dislike seafood, so naturally I followed in their footsteps. I'm glad I'm such a positive influence on your recovery! :) See you progress right now has really been helping me get over these past couple days, which have been quite hard. :( |
GOOBY-ha, seeing ur progress has really helped me!! we all have toguh times, hell, y does the phrase "tough times" or words like struggle, sad...exist, bc ppl have these feelings, the fact that were HAVING FEELINGS, not in the mind numbing mentality of pervious times, is something to be proud of. yes, perhaps rt now is hard, ull go to sleep, and start fresh the rest day. life, is hard, but its also great, and im a firm believer in growing from all things difficult. u will be ok! |
Congrats on 110! That's awesome I am so proud of you :) |
Wow thank you so much agruskin! I really needed that. :) You're absolutely right, I should be grateful for not being in that horrible 'robotic' state during the worst of my ED. And people experience hard feelings like this all the time. I do actually feel a lot better this morning...expecially after reading this :) |
agru - I'm having a really hard time with my body, just how it feels and I'm not sure if it's because I was sick or taking antibiotics or what, but I'm not even thinking about moving up until I've mastered how I feel in this skin, and right now for some reason I'm having a hard time with it. I know I'm not done, but last time when I gained too fast and didn't adjust... I got really, really depressed. I actually just picked up sushi to have for dinner... kani kama and ebi... I love seafood and wasabi. There is a great place out by me and its practically THE ONLY ethnic, non PA dutch food I can find. It's like a 45 minute drive to the nearest indian restaurant. How old are you? |
amy! sorry for being MIA. CONGRATS to you on such an amazing weekend!!! it sounds like things went really well yesterday! i adore lox! was your mother surprised? i'm so glad to hear that you ate normally afterwards too. you are doing so well! and it is finally showing up on the scales! how are your legs doing? still sore? i had a loooong weekend, mostly consumed by the wedding. it was cold here and i was not in the mood to go. the whole thing seemed to drag. once we got to the reception i was bored and hungry but got to the drinks before the food. bad bad bad idea. your theory about me being straight edged went down the toilet! i spent most of yesterday recovering, cooking, and apologizing to my bf for being too tipsy. so embarrassing! for cooking, i marinated some chicken in balsamic vinegar, lemon juice and soy sauce and then slapped it on the grill. it's really yummy. i made the bf a casserole with brown rice, turkey sausage, tons of veggies and some cream of mushroom soup. otherwise, nothing terribly inspired came out of me or the kitchen yesterday. i'm too old for this crap. :) i think actually we have similar perspectives on clothes. i go with what's cheap and what looks decent. most of my friends spend a lot more time and money investing in clothes. i still feel like i'm 12 and that i'll ruin anything that's nice. :) so now you're back to a full week at work? i hate the way vacation days/time flies by so quickly. i think you should pack your lunch in an obnoxiously colored lunch bag from now on so that your mother won't be tempted to steal it! how has your tummy been? has the flaxseed helped at all? remember to drink a ton of water too! ok. i need to run. congrats again on doing such an awesome job!!
