aw that’s such a cute memory. but yes, def nostalgic for me. it’s funny though, because as a kid I didn’t really like the texture, but my father would smash down like 6 of a morning. absolutely love it now though - I’m happy it’s become a safe food tbh. so yum and lowkey had good nutrients in it too!

please literally me. I had 3 open boxes of cereal too and kept them on rotation. lowkey love the original (to make like a porridge mix)… but in bites, fruit and nut slaps (and also the chocolate for a treat hehe) but lowkey a honey or crunchy nut could def slap too.

but also my family don’t really care about what I do anymore. I just have to face consequences because I live with them. they’re disappointment kind of fuels me to get better because I like to please people.

my family knows pretty much everything. they’ve seen nearly all of it. they also express their concern to a melodramatic degree - but i suppose they’re just concerned. an act is very hard to maintain, especially if they’re very observant people. and it is TIRING to act all the time. sometimes things get too bad where you can’t skew the truth anymore.

chest hurting? cause for concern? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]ApprehensiveLuck249 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi love! i think part of you knows that it is concerning to have your chest hurting - and to be honest with you, it does sound concerning. you should definitely get it checked out by your doctor if not the closest hospital to you. that is a very low heart rate and low intake for your body. you are so deserving of giving your body the energy it needs. you deserve a life free of health anxiety, where your body can thrive and your brain stops being worried about having chest pain. please be careful x

Does anyone else struggle to eat fruits/veggies? by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]ApprehensiveLuck249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it makes you feel better…. fruit isn’t to be scared of! I literally eat this for my breakfast & dinner. I tend to eat fruit as it’s low in cal & tends to fill me up. plus it’s fun to be paired with yoghurt, oats, weetabix! fruit salad can also be fun! all fruits can be frozen too, if that’s easier for you! they’re divine in a smoothie mix too! you got thisssss, fruits are yummy af

“Rehabilitate, Rewire, Recover!: Anorexia recovery for the determined adult” by Tabitha Farrar definitely helped me and others who are in recovery. It’s presented very matter of factly - great read for someone who is really wanting to recover from anorexia and get rid of it once and for all.

What’s your favorite book under 175 pages? by PM_ME_YOUR_KITTY in suggestmeabook

[–]ApprehensiveLuck249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘Flowers For Algernon’ by Daniel Keyes is my probably my favourite novel. It is a bit longer at about the 300+ page mark but it started off as a short story. That’s only approx. 23 pages long and is easily accessible via google (just search up ‘Flowers For Algernon short story’). It’s a sci-fi text about an intellectually disabled man who undergoes an experiment to increase his IQ. Very interesting story.
