  • Just an Update =)

    Long Blog - Big Update
    Sorry about all the lists!!

    DIET:

    I love this protein diet because I feel a lot more in control. I'd recommend it to all of you because I love this feeling.
    I haven't binged since I began it, and I didn't binge for three weeks last time, until I went off it Thats when I went on a two week hell-binging spree. Didn't give a damn what I ate. I regret it now.
    Well, now I've incorporated one day a week where I can eat whatever I want. It really really helps. After that day I have one protein day. It evens out.

    I feel fantastic now I've got 3 - 4 hours of netball a week. I'm toning up a bit more now, yay.
    I actually wanted to go for a run today, but i couldnt =(
    I have energy. Even though I'm only eating one slice of bread a day for carbs.
    (EG: TODAY)
    Breaky: Egg and Toast w/ Vegemite
    Lunch: Nothing
    Snack: Celery, Cheese, Ham and Turkey slices - only thin though (was half my lunch, half a snack)
    Dinner: Vegetable and Chicken Japanese StirFry

    I eat less than I should but I'm not hungry.

    I had a horrid peanut butter addiction that I got over too. It was horrid - my latest binge food. But I'm over it now. It makes me feel sick looking at peanut butter.Thank god.
    I think I'm losing weight. My boss noticed. He said he could tell I'd lost weight around my face.
    I think he made my week.

    My pants are becoming loose.
    I can see my collarbones better. I think I'm losing my stomach bit by bit. I know I've lost some fat around my hips.
    I haven't weighed myself, but when I think I'm about 58kg, I'll weigh myself. See how close I am.

    SCHOOL & LIFE:

    Life's not really that great though. It's easy to say right now I am depressed and very very stressed.

    I cut myself more frequently on my stomach. Almost everyday. Tried my thighs and my arms, but my body suit in netball doesnt cover a great deal, especially when running. People noticed from the other team, but screw them. Now it's just my stomach. No blood, just sharp pain. Control.

    I have five assignments, a speech competition, a Music Tour coming up and work every weekend at the moment.

    (Math: Assignment draft handed in, will get back Monday. 23 pages long. Due a week after draft back.
    English: 5 minute Duologue to memorise. I'd say I have 90% of it memorised. Due Wednesday.
    Chemistry: Keeping a scientific journal. Have done all I can. Will recieve official assignment Monday.
    Biology: Going on an excursion to the mangroves Tuesday and Thursday, will write report about during the week.
    Health: Assignment on stress. Draft received back Friday, will complete during week.Ahead of all in the class.
    Music: Going on Music tour next Thursday. Need to practice both pieces.
    Japanese: 3 minute speech to write, translate and memorise. Competition in September. I've won this competition three times, I have a name to live up to.

    Work: 6 hours saturday, 6 hours sunday.)

    My OCD is getting worse. You can tell, I'm making a million lists. I'm ahead in everything but still stressing over it.
    I sorted out our pantry today and half our fridge, even though it's getting packed up tomorrow. My room is nearly spotless. Everything is becoming routine and I hate breaking it. It really irks me.

    I'm better with my parents though. About the whole internet thing. Which is good I suppose :)

    FUTURE DILEMA: I need to decide what Uni I want to go to after next year. What degree. Health and Nutrition - the easy one? Or Medicine - the hard one? Medicine opens far more doors. But do I really want to do it? Would I enjoy H&N?
    I need to set up my work experience soon.

    FINANCIAL QUESTION: Is it better to spend $600 on a trip to my home town to spend two weeks with my best friends, who i may not see for a long time after school ends and we go to differnt unis (though we're in different states now anyway)
    OR
    Is it better to spend that $600 on a Digital SLR camera, which I've wanted for AGES, to pursue photography as an artistic outlet, like I've wanted for a a LONG time?

    XANGA QUESTION: Would anyone be interested if I started to blog about random nutritious facts, like what alternatives are better, what workouts work and what diets don't etc?

    YOU:

    I've tried to be there for you girls still, leaving comments here and there. Hope you girls don't mind I'm not around as much, I'm trying to keep updated. I'm so proud of you all, you're all strong ladies =)
    If you ever need to talk, I still am here. I want to help you all.

    THANKYOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ EVERYTHING HERE IN THIS BLOG, IT MEANS A LOT IF YOU DID :) I LOVE YOU GIRLS, STAY STRONG!!

  • I will be back...

    But I need to get off the computer for a while

    My mum's going mental, suggesting I'd rather be on the internet than with her and my dad and sister/s. She's like "it's not the be all end all, there's nothing important on there, you never speak to us anymore, you're so selfish" etc. She's worried that the last 18 months we'll have together (before I go off to University, more likely than not in another town) will be nothing because i'm on the computer all the time. She says i get up in the morning and check my emails and i check them during the day and before i go to sleep. True. I spend a lot of time on the internet. I talk to my best friend who is in another (Australian) State than me, and she's the only reason (her and her twin i should say) that I am still here and probably not dead or in hospital (for both eating related and self harm related issues).

    So to save my relationship with my parents (yes I do love them very much and I did not mean to alienate myself, not that they'd ever understand a lot of what I'm going through right now) I'm going to be scarcely on the computer, which unfortunatnly means I wont be able to support you girls as often as I'd like.

    I'm going back on that diet i was on (after gaining like 2kg back in 4 days, whoops...i binged far too much, I need to be stronger!) and I'm still at a loss as to what to do with my self harming - i cant move without pain right now because last night (funnily enough before my mum's attack at me and the computer) i harmed - at the top of both my arms, under my ribs, on my stomach, my lower stomach, both my hips and on my thighs. I dont know, in the shower I just went mental. It's the worst I've ever done, and now i'm paying for it.

    I'm sick as well, which doesnt help. Means I can't exercise or pretty much move... I had to come home from school early today.

    So to all of you girls - stay strong, keep in contact, i will be back, dont let anything get you down, if you need to talk like i've offered countless numbers of you please DO talk to me, i'll still check xanga periodically, i just wont have a lot of time to update. Hope you're all in good spirits and good frames of mind and health, and I'll talk to you soon :) xoxo

  • Whats better and more important? (Updated)

    FOOD IN GENERAL

    Rye vs wholegrain vs wholemeal BREAD

    White vs Brown RICE

    Low Fat vs Low Calorie vs Low GI ANYTHING (eg: Dairy Products)


    Low Carb vs Wholegrain/Natural vs Normal PASTA

    MEAL IDEAS
    Please note I want the healthiest, not necessarily the best "Ana" choice. Something to fill you up, reduce binging. Something that gives you the most vitamins, minerals, etc.
    If you could give calorie counts to back up your arguments, or anything to back them up, that'd be awesome.


    ADD YOUR OWN IDEAS IF YOU CAN THINK OF ANYTHING BETTER!
    GIVE SPECIFIC EXAMPLES IF POSSIBLE PLEASE!

    Breakfast:
    Toast with spread vs Muesli with yogurt vs Yogurt with fruit vs Fruit vs Cereal

    Lunch: 
    Sandwich with Meat & Salad vs Salad with meat vs Garden Salad vs Fruit

    Dinner:
    Meat with Salad vs Meat with Vegetables vs Soup vs Cooked meals (eg: shepards pie, spaghetti bolegnaise etc)

    Snacks:
    Air-popped Popcorn vs Nuts vs Fruit

    Desserts/Something Sweet:

    Fruit vs  Yogurt vs Jelly vs Low-Fat/GI/Whatever-is-better Icecream

    If you have any other comparisons you'd like your opinion stated for, go ahead and comment please.

    ---

    Just trying to get my mind around a few things. Need your opinion.

    I need to get some help... i harmed again last night... because of the gorging, and just kept going.. i need my opinions straight... i need help... i'm desperate.

    Not going to comment about the past two days. Have had two free days and i gorged badly. Back on track today, slow does it...slow does it...I fucked up my previous plan for the next few days, just gotta start again.
    I hate myself right now.

    Intake
    B-
    Yogurt 180cal
    L- TBA
    D- TBA

    Outtake:
    TBA (Will be walking to a friends place, an hour on treadmill, half hour video... i hope)

  • I See Progress, I'm Getting There

    WEIGH IN YESTERDAY: 60kg (132lbs).  That's almost 10lbs (5kg) lost in 18 days, assuming my beginning weight was 65kg.
    BMI: 22.9

    GOAL: 55kg (120lbs)
    BMI: 21
    TO GO: 5kg (10lbs)
    CURRENT MOOD: Feeling slightly fat (read below), yet happy, excited, and tired.

    HALF WAY THERE

    Not that bad, I'm happy with it. 2lbs to go before school begins, that's next Wednesday, I should be fine to hit my goal of being in the 50's by semester 2 :) This is a new time low for me in so long, it's great.

    I had a slip up day yesterday, but i think it's what I needed - i only had a mouthful of the lasange i cooked with my sister, which was out of courtesy, and there was only a little pastry, everything else was in line with my diet. I had heaps of cream, but it's lower cal than i thought!! And i've realised that i need to have my big breakfast to stop the binging, so i'm back to my normal omlette, isntead of just egg whites and cream with tomato and green onion. I'm back to the whole egg x 2 + cheese etc. But like i said it prevents binges, which is fine i spose... even though i feel fat :(

    I went walking thismorning at 5.30 with my sister and her friend Caine, it was fun. And cold as! My hands were numb for 2 hours afterwards!! Stupid winter!! But the gardens are gorgeous. And the exercise was great.

    I tried my sister's work out video yesterday- hooooooly crap. It's this bottle blonde chick from miami getting you to "earn your bikini body" (she says it sooooo weirdly) and it's a 10 min workout for your butt, thighs and abs. Its pretty hardcore. I might stick to it with my cardio. Even if i do 30 mins running [a little more hard-core than my 1 hour workout] and the 30 min video atlesat 4 times a week..

    I'm such a fitness freak, i can't wait to actually be fit.
    And I'm a health nut, so I can't wait to be thin enough to eat healthily again...
    I miss fruit :(
    But i like this diet, please please please keep working!!
    I'm just so confused as to whether or not i'll eat healthily... or eat less... it's a trap i find myself in every time :(

    I JUST DONT WANT TO GAIN MY WEIGHT BACK

    Smile today everyone xx

    INTAKE:
    B-
    Omlette - 2x eggs, handful of grated cheese, two slices of tomato, green onion, ham and a tablespoon of cream - 250 cal
         I need to have less cheese :( And i added ham today for something new...did nothing for me, so back to no meat.
    L- Lettuce - 10 cal
    D- TBA (plan - salad and chicken - 150 cal)
    S- TBA (hopefully no snacking!)
    TOTAL - 260 + TBA (hopefully around 500 in all)

    OUTTAKE:
    1 hour walking around the botanic gardens at 5.30 this morning
    30 min workout video ("Bikini Body Workout" with this annoying bottle blonde chick and her ugly followers...LOL sorry she's annoyin :P)
