#it’s carbs or sugar here

[ofcowardiceandkings]

the heirarchy of good habits for feeding yourself when you have brainfuck doesnt need to be all at once at all and in fact is probably best not to do it that way

start by making sure youre getting enough calories at regular intervals to fuel your body

then move forward to making sure youre getting enough fruit n vegetables in whatever form you can

then you can start to worry about nitty gritty things like salt intake or cutting out some sugars or saturated fats or more protein or whatever you need to do for your health

its WAY more important to be getting all the right stuff first than be cutting things out with nowhere to go

#like personally i avoid palm oil as best as possible for health and environmental reasons (its awful for both) #but if im having a shitty day and need food quick ill eat something with palm in it yknow #carbs and sugars might not be amazing in huge amounts for the long run unless youre using lots of energy but theyre something yknow #food politics are such a mess in general so im not out here to be holier than thou #far from it in fact ... i 100% get it as someone who still has a stress eating problem at times and has been VERY POOR and still isnt secur #and then theres the anxiety depression and whatever else like i get it ... and my sibling has crohn's we work around too when they stay her #its a whole minefield that changes on your specific circumstances but be good to yourself first and then worry about the rest #rory's ramblings

like my bmi is in the 'normal' range but i know for a fact im not eating enough & my body isnt functioning as well as it would if i was eating more and yet since my weight divided by my height squared times 703 is between 18.5 to 24.9 that means i am 'Normal' and 'Healthy'. which is such bullshit

#text #weight tw #disordered eating tw #Like my highest weights that i know of were when i was 17 and eating normal and when i was . young #and those r both times i felt physically better than usual #its so frustrating bc all advice for gaining weight is like #'eat protein and lift weights but DONT eat any of the BAD EVIL FOODS with SUGAR or CARBS' like. girl #just give me advice on how 2 keep my body working . please . #in related news being self aware and having arfid sucks ass cuz i KNOW i need to eat more food and more nutrients etc but my brain is like #'Well if you dont eat this specific granola bar every day. and pbj for dinner. and no you wont be hungry for lunch. and goldfish as a snack #Well you will not eat anything on account of how it will seem so unappetizing and awful to u. forever yeah.' #like GET ME OUT OF HERE

[starrypawz]

so adhd meds observation number whatever

they don't totally curb your impulsivity but they do make it a little easier to make adult decisions instead of letting the instant gratification monkey win all the time

#like earlier i was like i want a treat and i was actually hungry and needed food #and so it was like 'ok if you buy a can of diet coke that's your treat' and yeah my brain was like 'fine' #for context i used to drink a lot of fizzy drinks and generally ba sugar/carb gremlin and that was probably me self medicating whoops #like im not putting moral judgements on food here it's just 'yeah we could have made better decisions back in the day'

Dad’s in hospital. Again. 8C

#I really hope this is the reality check he needs to start eating better tbh #he exercises a LOT but still eats like crap #I can’t throw stones bc I’m shit at saying no to garbage #that said I *am* on day 3 of cutting my sugar intake down #a two day long migraine has finally lifted #trying to cut down all refined carbs too #years ago I was high protein and high healthy fats and high fibre and jfc I felt AMAZING #I’d kill to feel that way again #at least I’ve gotten over the hardest part by actually keeping on track for the first few days #they really are the worst 8C #feel free to ignore this #I don’t share a lot of irl stuff here since I’m *old* and oversharing online just doesn’t hold any appeal anymore lol #but still #kind of had to get it all out #my head’s all over the place 8C

GOOD EVENING TUMBLR, ME AND THE SPIRITS ARE HAVING

INDULGENCES

#I have had WAY TOO MUCH CHEESE #and WAY TOO MUCH CARBS #and just a little wine because even when we're indulging we do not binge drink here #and WAY TOO MUCH SUGAR #and we're grooving to music and watching good shows #I'm having a less-literal night like at the end of Beetlejuice when Lydia is dancing with the ghosts

[theonlythingimfuckingisstupid]

the WORST part about being type one is not being able to just drink some apple juice 

#for a minute i forgot apple juice was FILLED with carbs so i had some and now my sugar is shooting up #i hate it here :( #t1d #em rambles

Anyway yes, people who can X should be accomodating to people who can't X. People who can walk should accomodate people who can't. People who can hear should accomodate people who can't. People who can see should accomodate people who can't. And on and on. When that doesn't happen, it's a problem that deserves to be talked about.

But the problem is not and has never been "physical disabilities are more important and deserve more accomodations than mental disabilities"- nor the other way around either.

People love to dunk on folks with ADD/ADHD but you know? As someone with ADD raised by diabetic parents I gotta say there's a lot of similarities here. People with ADD, myself included, often forget to eat and when they do eat they often load themselves up with carbs and sugars because those foods make their brains feel good. People with diabetes have to closely monitor their meals and often crave sugars and need a blend of sugary and protein-rich snacks on hand. This is not to say ADD and diabetes are exact one-to-one disabilities.

But having grown up watching my parents manage their diabetes, I too am very aware of meal times and blood sugar and constructing meals that will tide you over and having a blend of sugary and protein-rich snacks on hand Just In Case. I am able to manage my ADD better in this way because I have experience from watching my parents. I also need access to snacks and to be able to say to my boss "I need to go eat something real fast" without being punished.

I had a training client who was the image of "able bodied mentally ill" outside of the usual creaks and squeaks associated with age, her body worked just fine. But after a series of incidents in her youth- a car accident that left her with a serious brain injury, coming home from the hospital afterwards to immediately have her house broken into and herself raped by an intruder, and assorted medical malpractice while she was healing from both- she has a serious and extreme case of agoraphobia and spent the next 40 years completely unable to leave the house. She would hide and wail and scream when deliveries of groceries and other goods would come, because it meant a stranger (and usually a man) would be at her door. She could not go more than a couple steps outside to get her mail and especially not if other people were outside.

At some point her therapist suggested getting a pet, one that *had* to go outside, to help her. So she got a dog and contacted a trainer (me) and we got to work. And she did improve! The dog has been a huge help to managing her symptoms! But you cannot seriously expect me to have worked with this woman for years and then belittle mental illnesses as being lesser when this woman also shares the inability to even leave her house let alone go inside a grocery store. Even today there are times when she simply cannot, she cannot will her body to move out of her door and into transportation let alone into the building.

When she first started coming to me she thanked me for not belittling her or making her feel bad for classes she had to cancel because she couldn't force herself to take the first step over the threshold. That is when she told me what happened to her and that while it sounds terrible she was really happy to have found a trainer who knew something personal about trauma and brain injuries. She is also a case where I feel her ESA should be considered service dog not because of training or tasking but because her need is so high and she is just completely incapable of doing anything without the dog in her arms.

Anyway I think of her any time someone says "but you can walk through the door". There's nothing wrong with her legs so in theory sure she could. But often she *can't*, not because of anything physical, but because she is very severely mentally ill.

Mmk so I couldn't allow myself to just gatekeep these AMAZING snackies ♡

They are Jelly B. Drinkable Konjac Jelly, they r Korean and they r sooooooo good

They r super refreshing and it fills u up and satisfies sweet cravings

They r gluten free (100% in Australia and for US it doesn't have a warning against it), dairy free, sugar free, fat free, cholesterol free, nut free, halal, low carb, contain a bunch of vitamin C and a little calcium, and best of all EXTREMELY LOW CAL

There r at least 7 flavors (watermelon, apple, blueberry, peach, lychee, mango, and grape [the grape isn't American artificial grape where it taste more purple than fruity]), they r fairly cheap (especially if there r deals at the market), u can find them at ur local Asian market (I got mine at HMart and I think I got them for like $21 or $28 USD for 14 pouches) or Amazon (def more pricey)

Some of them taste exactly like the fruit while others don't rly but they r still rly good

Make sure when u drink it u shake it up real good, maybe even massage it a bit so u get bits of jelly rather than drinking all the juice and struggling to get the jelly out (I mean ig u could drink the juice and cut it open and eat the jelly with a spoon?) and they r best cold

I rly rly hope all of u who want them can find them bc they r SO AMAZING

Imma put pics of them below, ignore how dirty my kitchen floor looks pls (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)

P.S. so sry for how trash the pics r

P.P.S. rereading this post makes me sound like a commercial, I'm not getting paid btw, I just think all the babes here should know abt them if they r interested

Love u all ♡

Swinging a bat at a hornets nest here but yall can be food positive and body positive and fight against the notion that eating food is a moral or immoral act and fight against how health is seen as a value judgement and fight against how weight is seen as a bad thing without... claiming that eating chips and coca cola for lunch is a healthy meal

I greatly encourage decoupling morality from food types and eating, but just because something has raw ingredients like sodium and glucose and carbs in them doesnt make them healthy. "Unironically pizza is good for you" its not, though. That doesnt mean anybody is a bad person for having pizza for dinner or eating too much of it and youre a dickhead if you treat people badly for eating pizza a lot but you can not look me in the eyes and seriously tell me that ordering pizza from the little caesars across the street is a healthy dinner.

If you actually want body positivity and food neutrality, you need to be able to acknowledge that food is still just food and people are still just people who eat when its unhealthy. You dont need to pretend that having cookies for breakfast is really good and healthy when its just not. You need to be able to see when things are just unhealthy and still say "its fine to eat them though because thats not my business and it doesnt affect what kind of person they are or what kind of person i am if we eat this."

Because honestly, its starting to sound a bit like "diet culture is bad because these foods that are nothing but sugar coated rice crackers are actually good and healthy for you" when it should be "it doesnt matter how healthy or unhealthy something is, its not my business what other people choose to eat."

HOW I’VE BEEN SUCESSFULLY LOSING WEIGHT: Notes from a former binge eater ♥️

*this guide is to show how ~I~ do things and offer advice on how to do it MY way. I am in no way encouraging anyone to do themselves harm. First off,

HEALTH IS WEALTH.

That being said.. this is literally the longest I’ve ever gone without bingeing. It’s just,,, easy this time. Once you get a feel of what it’s like to be skinny you just don’t crave junk as much anymore bc you KNOW it’s not worth it. The trick is to eat clean 90% of the time and allow your favorite treats 10% do the time. Fit them into your calorie limit!!! Here’s some personal favorites that have helped me lose like 20lbs in the past 2 months.

I tend to do one higher- calorie drink during the day (protein shake, Starbucks, etc) and one healthy filling but low cal meal and a sweet snack at the end of the night.

LOW CALORIE 90%

Mediterranean salad (~150): mixed greens, chopped bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, red onion. Little bit of feta cheese. Balsamic vinegar (not dressing or vinegarette!!!!) I don’t add meat but you could totally add chicken for low cal high protein choice. You could also add olives but I don’t fw them.

Chocolate Protein shakes from the gas station (loll). They’re 220 cal on average and a great treat. Strawberry one is good too.

SEAWEED SNACKS they’re literally 30-60 calories for a pack and kill my urge to eat chips!!! Please give them a try!

Soups. Soups that are already portioned and have the calorie amount posted. I add extra seasonings and spice to boost metabolism.

Coffee!! With almond milk and a little coffee creamer. It’s worth the calories if you want a coffee just make one it’s better than going to Starbucks.

Sushi: I’m vegetarian so I get an avocado and cucumber roll. It’s so good with fresh ginger and a little soy sauce. Sometimes I will be craving it allllllll day and have it as my OMAD so rewarding 🥹

Miso soup>>>>>> add tofu and seaweed and onions!! And mushrooms if you like them.

Monster Ultra energy drinks,,,, yeah I know they’re bad for you but I love them.

Fruits!!! I especially love strawberries, watermelon, cherries, blackberries, pineapple and mangoes.

TREATS 10%

Trail mix: dried cherries, pecans, walnuts, pistachios, cashews. High in calories but perfect for killing hunger. High protein keeps you full and muscles strong, high healthy fats will keep your hair and skin and nails beautiful.

Chocolates: SMALL PORTIONS. if you can’t eat just eat a piece without bingeing, do NOT buy a big bag. what I do is I buy a bar of whatever chocolate I’m craving for my bf and we share it piece by piece. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white, hazelnut, with coffee beans, with toffee, fruits, chocolate is the best thing ever 🍫

Starbucks! My fav drinks are matcha lattes (hot/iced), iced white chocolate mocha, caramel macchiato, and occasionally a pumpkin spice latte. Peppermint mochas on the holidays. Oat milk always

Baked goods. Same deal as the chocolate, ONLY BUY THE PORTION YOURE GOING TO EAT. If you have been craving a croissant, go get one. One. Don’t buy a whole dozen of them. You will end up bingeing trust me. My favs are cinnamon rolls <3

Habits

I’m going to the gym!!! Consistently for the first time in my life. It doesn’t have to be anything crazy. Spend 30 min on the treadmill alternating between incline walking and easy paced jogging. Put on a YouTube video. Wear pink and bring a cute water bottle. You have to make an experience out of it! I stick to cardio and full body stretches plus ocasional (light) strength workouts w my bf.

I don’t drink anymore. Just 🍃. Alc is so high in sugar and carbs and it’s literally poison bro. I know it’s hard to stop but once you do you’ll feel so much better.

I rarely weigh myself. I’m at my bfs house all the time so I only step on my scale maybe 3 times a month. It’s been a game changer!!!

MINDSET

I practice mindfulness and speak kindly to myself. Basically sweetspo + affirmations to myself all the time.

Taking more pride in your appearance will also help motivate you. You think you’ll still want to binge after you took a full body shower, clean PJ’s or outfit, painted your nails, skincare and makeup done, whitened your teeth and lit a candle? No thanks.

Limit stupid, negative, useless media consumption. Watch things that have to do with your hobbies/ interests and your social media algorithms begin to kinda clean themselves up over time. My pages are all about exercise, study blogs, beauty tips and sciencey stuff. No more drama or celebrity nonsense. Cut down your following!!

Remember you only have one life on earth. You’re young and hot once. Don’t you want to grab this chance while you have it? Unfortunately your beauty is your currency especially as a woman, so if there’s anything I can do to give myself a better life I will. Losing just a few pounds of fat will make the craziest difference in ways you’d never expect. Free and discounted stuff. More people smile at you and listen to what you have to say. Both literal and figurative doors will be opened for you.Clothes fit better bc they’re more flattering when your body is fit and healthy. While it feels good to get validation from other people, the best part of it is looking in the mirror and feeling proud instead of ashamed. The inner confidence that comes from successful transformation………….there’s no other feeling that compares. If you know, you know. I’m just saying,, the choice is yours 🤷🏼‍♀️
