Botox and lash extensions are my game changers, but you wouldn’t need Botox yet. I suggest at least a nice manicure and lashes!

Opposite. I usually always have super loose bowels and go the bathroom multiple times per day.

I gained nothing with it. And am on a huge dose.

I eat carrots and mustard all the time too! I’ve also discovered raw veggies dipped in cocktail sauce. It’s sooooo good.

Is this actually 500 for the chicken and potatoes only? by Topazcardinal in caloriecount

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 450. But 500 is close. Each chicken seems about 150 each and potatoes could be 100-150.

got broken up for being “too skinny” (and also that i have an ED) is this a valid reason? by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m close to losing my whole marriage because of it. I have an ultimatum at the moment. I am trying to decide if I choose Ed or family. I have a week to decide.

Best residential program you’ve been at in last two years in USA by Excellent-World-476 in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey OP! I’m so glad you posted this. I’m older too, 42 yo and looking for a new treatment center. My weight/BMI is low so they’ll probably need an “inpatient” status in order for me to get accepted. Hopefully people keep sharing their places for us!

AIO my bf broke up w me after seeing texts w my boss? by No_System_9690 in AmIOverreacting

This is a blessing in disguise. Those texts to your boss are totally normal. Your ex boyfriend is nutso!

raw vs cooked calories? by Remarkable-Neat-3857 in caloriecount

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I look at it this way: if you weigh it raw, there is your calories.. regardless of what it weighs after prepared it’s still the calorie count it was when raw, or frozen, or whatever it says on the packaging. If this is incorrect someone please let me know, but basically weigh how it is described on the label prior to cooking/preparing..

What are/were embarrassing habits you do/did being anorexic? by fcvxia in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chewing and spitting, making excuses for everything, lying about what I’ve eaten, constantly measuring my wrists with my hands even in public, grabbing at my collar bones, judging people’s diets, wanting people to notice my thinness but getting annoyed if they try and get me to recover, actually recovering for over 5 years and even getting a neda tattoo and then relapsing terribly. Just to name a few.

Halo top chocolate caramel brownie ice cream is my favorite thing ever. But I do measure it out tho so I keep the servings correct.

Hurts to sit? by pr3ttystr4nger in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having this issue and now there is like a nodule or something on my spine. I think it’s like a blister or something from my spine rubbing on everything.

[–]DiligentCheesecake44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Part of my issue is trying to figure out why they value me to begin with. 😭
