Dietician: I don't care about your weight. There are no bad foods. Prepared food and ready meals are fine if that's what you need to get in veg
Me: *stunned*
Dietician: also you mentioned depression making things difficult and low mood and I've been researching what nutrition is helpful in combating depression and will send you stuff about that as well as easy meals
Me: this went so much better than I expected
Anyway she's nice and I like her

the way my RD trusts me🥲
she's agreed that we can meet every other week, instead of weekly, but last week she was having internet issues, then scheduling problems that just resulted in us going another week without an appointment. i'm sick and texted to ask if we can reschedule or just communicate via chat/email because I'd rather rest my body and throat (primary symptom-sore throat & cough, negative for flu, covid, strep). and she was like "absolutely! listen to your body! I'll review your food journal and we can just meet next week!"
this is what support should look like in recovery, not chastizing and punishing for not following your meal plan or threatening higher levels of care.
i also said "i'm proud of how i'm doing with flexibility and variety, though my weight is at the lower end of its range"
me??? PROUD OF MYSELF? being flexible and variable in my food choices? what is happening

Overcoming Depression and Loneliness: Self-Help Strategies for Mental Wellness || Dietician Mohit Bansal Chandigarh
Depression and loneliness are common mental health challenges that many people experience at some point in their lives. These conditions can be caused by a range of factors, including genetics, life events, and social isolation. However, Mohit Bansal Chandigarh proposed that there are many self-help strategies that individuals can use to overcome depression and loneliness and improve their mental wellness.
What are Depression and Loneliness?
Tumblr media
Depression is a mental health disorder that is characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in activities that were previously enjoyed. Other common symptoms of depression include changes in appetite and sleep patterns, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and feelings of worthlessness or guilt. Depression can stem from various factors, such as genetic predisposition, life circumstances, and imbalances in brain chemicals. It is a serious condition that can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life and may require professional treatment.
Loneliness is a feeling of social isolation or disconnectedness from others. It is a common experience that can be caused by a range of factors, such as living alone, lack of social connections, or feeling misunderstood or unsupported by others. Loneliness can harm mental health and wellbeing and may contribute to symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. It is important to address feelings of loneliness and seek out social connections to promote mental wellness. This article will examine some of these approaches in depth.
Exercise regularly
Tumblr media
Exercise is a powerful tool for improving mental health and wellbeing. Mohit Bansal Chandigarh proposed that studies have shown that exercise can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, increase self-esteem and confidence, and improve cognitive function. Exercise can also help to reduce stress levels and promote feelings of relaxation and calmness.
Practice mindfulness
Tumblr media
Mindfulness refers to a practice of non-judgmentally focusing on the present moment. Mohit Bansal Chandigarh proposed that this practice can help individuals to become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, and to develop a greater sense of inner peace and calmness. Mindfulness can be cultivated through various methods, including meditation, breathing techniques, and other practices.
Connect with others
Tumblr media
Loneliness is a common contributor to depression, so it’s important to make connections with others. This can include spending time with family and friends, joining social clubs or groups, or volunteering in the community. Connecting with others can help to boost mood, reduce feelings of isolation, and provide a sense of belonging.
Get enough sleep
Tumblr media
Sleep is essential for mental health and well-being. Lack of sleep can contribute to symptoms of depression and anxiety, and can also impair cognitive function. To promote good sleep hygiene, individuals should aim to get 7-8 hours of sleep per night, avoid caffeine and alcohol before bedtime, and establish a regular sleep routine.
Eat a healthy diet
Tumblr media
A healthy diet can play an important role in mental wellness. Consuming a diet that is abundant in unprocessed foods, such as fresh produce, whole grains, lean protein, and other nutrient-dense options, can offer the body the necessary nutrients for optimal functioning. Additionally, certain nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, are particularly beneficial for mental health.
Set realistic goals
Tumblr media
Setting and achieving goals can provide a sense of purpose and accomplishment, which can boost mood and self-esteem. Nevertheless, it is crucial to establish practical and attainable goals rather than excessively ambitious ones. This can help to prevent feelings of failure or disappointment, which can contribute to symptoms of depression.
Practice self-care
Self-care involves taking time to prioritize one’s physical and mental health. This can include activities such as taking a warm bath, practicing yoga, or engaging in a favorite hobby. Practicing self-care can help individuals to reduce stress levels, promote relaxation, and improve overall mood and well-being.
Seek professional help
Tumblr media
If self-help strategies are not enough to overcome depression and loneliness, it may be necessary to seek professional help. Mental health professionals, such as therapists and psychiatrists, can provide support, guidance, and treatment options for individuals struggling with these conditions. It’s essential to keep in mind that seeking assistance for mental health issues requires courage and strength, rather than being viewed as a sign of weakness.
Risk Factors for Developing Depression and Loneliness
Several risk factors can contribute to the development of depression and loneliness. Some of these factors are:
Genetics: Individuals with a family history of depression or mental health disorders may be more likely to experience these conditions themselves.
Life events: Traumatic or stressful life events, such as the loss of a loved one, relationship problems, financial difficulties, or work-related stress, can trigger symptoms of depression and loneliness.
Social isolation: Lack of social support or social connections can contribute to feelings of loneliness and may also increase the risk of depression.
Chronic illness: Individuals with chronic health conditions, such as cancer or diabetes, may be more prone to depression due to the impact of the illness on their quality of life.
Substance abuse: Substance abuse can contribute to the development of depression and loneliness, and may also make these conditions more difficult to manage.
Hormonal changes: Hormonal changes, such as those experienced during pregnancy or menopause, can increase the risk of depression in some individuals.
Personality traits: Certain personality traits, such as low self-esteem, negative thinking patterns, and a tendency towards perfectionism, may increase the risk of depression and loneliness.
It’s important to note that these risk factors do not guarantee that an individual will experience depression or loneliness and that many people who experience these conditions do not have any of these risk factors.
Conclusion
Depression and loneliness are significant mental health challenges that can have a severe impact on an individual’s quality of life. It’s important to recognize the signs and symptoms of these conditions and seek professional help if needed. While there are several risk factors that contribute to the development of depression and loneliness, recovery is possible with the right resources and support. Self-help strategies, such as mindfulness practices, exercise, and seeking social connections, can be effective in managing these conditions. It’s crucial to remember that seeking help is a sign of strength, and creating a culture of acceptance and understanding surrounding mental health is essential. By prioritizing mental health and seeking help when necessary, individuals can overcome depression and loneliness and enjoy fulfilling lives.

Had another one of my appointments yesterday, honestly feel like the NHS has really stepped up it’s game when it comes to weight problems and how people are effected by it.
My mum suffers from weight issues too and she spent most of her life being told by asshole doctors “you’re just fat, eat less and move more”. But that’s not how it works, well, it is, but people who suffer from drastic weight issues, cannot sustain the level of exercise that is needed to live healthily. There are two times in my life where I came close to a healthy weight, and in order to do it, i was unemployed, I was walking anywhere from 6 to 10 miles a day, and limited myself to 1000 calories daily. Now that wasn’t sustainable, but not because I was pushing myself to the limit, I felt fine, I was incredibly fit. But sooner or later I would have had to get a job again, I ended up going to uni AND moving house as a result, these regular life things stopped me from dedication 2-4 hours a day to workouts. Additionally, even if your life is perfect for that kinda commitment, injury, or age, sooner or later the workouts will stop, and you body from an evolutionary standpoint wants to get back to your highest weight because 100,000 years ago, being fat was great because it was stored energy you could survive on.
But the doctor yesterday, highlighted that it’s not my fault, bad eating habits, activity level, it’s all a minor issue, weight problems to the higher degree is 65-70% genetic. Even if I grew up eating nothing but salads and water, my body wants to save all of it and that’s just how I’m made.. he also highlighted to me that so far, my body is coping extremely well with the extra weight, every blood level (besides fatty liver disease) is well within normal levels, I’m very healthy as far as morbidly obese people go 😂 and he has said he’s not worried about the fatty liver because that goes away with weight loss. Based on our conversations yesterday and looking at my data, he said that 6 months on the programme, jumping the hoops and ticking the boxes and he has absolutely no problem green lighting me for bariatric surgery. I’m ready for the permanent solution. There is still work for me to do, my eating habits aren’t great and they still need to improve to make sure the surgery is effective.
I bought myself some new wireless earphones yesterday, and I’m just giving my breakfast time to go down before I go on my first walk in probably… a year? Crazy.

Matcha - Perfect for Your Everyday Health and Wellness
Perfect for your everyday Health and Wellness with matcha .Green tea powder called matcha tea is high in antioxidants. For traditional green tea, the leaves are steeped in boiling water before being discarded. The dried leaves are really ground into a powder when using matcha, which is then added to the tea and consumed.The tea is thought to be the most aromatic type of green tea because of its distinctive, non-bitter flavour and vivid green colour.
Tumblr media
Benefits of Matcha for Health?
Many individuals are switching to matcha, a caffeinated substitute well known for its brilliant colour, as more and more people attempt to reduce their consumption of coffee. It's a form of green tea, but it's not the hot water-infused loose-leaf variety. A powder called matcha is created by grinding up green tea leaves. The advantages of matcha are much greater than those of the traditional type since it contains a larger concentration of nutrients.
It's packed with vitamins and antioxidants: Both catechins and polyphenols, another class of antioxidant found in green tea, are present. Jenna Gorham, RD, dietitian and founder of the RD Link, says that matcha powder provides a megadose of these potent antioxidants, which can help lessen cell damage and prevent chronic disease.
It might enhance the radiance on your skin:If you have skin issues, Miyashita advises switching to matcha for a week rather than coffee. According to a 2017 study that was published in the journal Nutrients, the vitamin C in matcha boosts the formation of collagen when consumed. Additionally, a study published in the journal Advances in Skin & Wound Care suggests that vitamin B may aid in the promotion of healthy skin cell turnover.
It can make your bones stronger: Most individuals don't consider actively taking steps to strengthen their bones, yet doing so is crucial for health and mobility, especially as you age. By lowering the oxidative stress that causes inflammation in the bones, polyphenols, the antioxidant-rich substances in green tea, may increase bone mineral density (i.e., how solid your bones are). According to a number of earlier research, this can subsequently reduce your risk of getting osteoporosis.
Compared to a cup of coffee or boiled tea, it may be more filling: Due to its potent, earthy flavour, matcha powder is most frequently blended and served with milk or a non-dairy substitute, such as almond or oat milk. The milk's additional calories make the beverage more filling than your typical espresso-based latte.
It might safeguard your brain: A tiny study from 2020 that was published in the journal Nutrients suggests that drinking matcha every day may help halt cognitive decline. That's because matcha contains plenty of lutein and vitamin K, both of which have been linked to enhanced cognitive abilities including attention and memory.
Matcha tea has many health advantages, excess consumption may have negative effects.
Like most things, drinking too much matcha tea can be harmful to your health. Excessive matcha use may have negative side effects such as headaches, sleeplessness, and upset stomach. Matcha also includes a lot of caffeine, so consuming too much of it may also cause jitteriness and other caffeine-related adverse effects, such as a faster heartbeat. It is usually advised to consume food and beverages in moderation.
How can Matcha be used?
Matcha has several applications, some of which are as follows:
Drinking: Matcha is typically taken as a tea, which is the most popular way to consume it. To make a frothy and tasty beverage, the powder is customarily whisked with hot water.
Cooking and baking: Matcha powder may also be used in cooking and baking to give desserts and savoury foods a distinctive green tea flavour. It's frequently used in baked products including cakes, cookies, and bread as well as smoothies, matcha ice cream, and other baked goods.
Due to its high antioxidant content, which can help shield the skin from free radical damage, matcha powder is also utilised in various cosmetics and skincare products.
Supplements: Matcha powder is also offered in capsules, pills, and powdered supplements.
Matcha is traditionally used in Japan's traditional tea ceremony, where it is regarded as a sign of deference, friendliness, and harmony.
Due to the calming effects of the L-Theanine, some people use matcha as a way to improve their yoga and meditation practices.
Does matcha have caffeine?
Yes, caffeine is present in matcha. The Camellia sinensis plant, which also yields green, black, and oolong tea, is the source of the leaves used to manufacture matcha. Matcha contains more caffeine than other types of tea because the leaves are grown and processed specifically for this purpose.
Matcha's caffeine concentration varies depending on the powder's quality, although it is typically thought to be higher than that of other kinds of tea. Matcha typically includes 35 mg of caffeine per serving, or about the same as one cup of coffee. According to some research, matcha has up to three times as much caffeine as a typical cup of green tea.
Method for making Matcha?
Here is a  recipe for classic matcha tea:
Ingredients:
Matcha powder, 1 teaspoon
2 ounces (or 60 ml) of hot (between 175 and 180 °F) water
Optional: 1 to 2 teaspoons of honey or sugar (if desired)
Instructions:
To get rid of any lumps, sift the matcha powder through a fine mesh strainer.
Matcha powder, hot water, and sugar or honey (if used) should be whisked together in a small bowl until foamy.
Matcha mixture should be whisked in a "W" motion with a bamboo whisk while holding the bowl with one hand until a thick froth has formed on the tea's surface.
You can use a little electric whisk or a small metal whisk if you don't have a bamboo whisk.
The tea is ready to be served once it has frothed up and been thoroughly blended. Take some time to savour the distinct flavour and scent of your matcha tea.
