I'm feeling really good today. The appointment with the dietician went really well. She understands that I don't want nor need to put my intake up too high yet, and that I'm not ready to gain weight. She blind-weighed me, and we decided on 800-1,000 calories a day for the next week, and we'll see what happens. If I gain, then it's time to look into why I gain so easily. Feeling optimistic :) Eat more, stay skinny, yes?
Egg yolks are a big deal for me these days, but I had a whole egg with lunch! Also, it was my first time poaching an egg - and it was perfect :) I also treated myself with sugar-free ice cream after dinner. A few months back, these were all I would eat, and I was horribly sick and bloated all the time because I ate a ridiculously dangerous amount of Sorbitol. And Quick-Eze. I would eat 3-12 packs a day, with my ice cream. Strangest eating habit ever. I was spending more on ice cream & Quick-Eze than I was on weed.

That's great! I'm so glad your appointment went well and you are feeling positive and motivated, I think that's half the battle. You seem to have good support too. Much love xxx
ReplyDeleteYour dietitian sounds wonderful! I'm glad she is so understanding and really helping you out. I hope things continue to go well!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you. Good luck with everything. You're an inspiration in every way.
ReplyDeleteI poached my first egg a couple of months ago then became addicted and would have one a day. I think that it was because I was running so much at the time and was craving protein. No eggs for me now though, sigh :p
