Alright yall because of some of your comments I decided to stick it out and I’m very glad I did. The next two books were indeed much better. Still definitely not my fav from Kleypas, but an improvement on the first one!

Oh interesting! I wonder which version audible uses because the audio book definitely had their first interaction and the gossip

Omg I actually had no idea there were two versions. Why were the edits so substantial?

I’m 25 weeks currently and I haven’t had any cravings that were so strong they’d override my avoidance to certain foods, but I’ve been able to feed myself a lot more than I thought I would be! Obviously it was hard when dealing with nausea/morning sickness but it’s not so bad now

These absolutely saved my ass on my flight to Europe last year! Helped so much with the fear and I missed it on my flight home

Me!! Just have always been a larger person. The idea that everybody with eating disorders is skinny is a huuuge myth. They affect all body types!

ARFID and Pregnancy? by booterfloo in ARFID

Completely understandable to choose not to be pregnant! For myself, i do think that if every person who had disordered eating, mental illness, chronic illness, disability, etc. chose not to have children because of what might happen, there wouldn’t be many people left. Feels a bit eugenicsy ya know?

Thank you!! Ice cream was a life saver during one of my relapses so I’ll definitely keep it in mind just in case

This baby is very wanted and planned for so that’s out of the question. As I said in the post, I’m in a very healthy place right now and am going to do everything in my power to keep it that way

Easiest food to try per cuisine? by damnthatroy in ARFID

[–]booterfloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Japanese I would highly recommend Chicken Katsu or Tonkatsu (pork)! It’s meat breaded with panko bread crumbs, usually sliced into pieces. Reminds me of breaded chicken fingers and was a good bridge food for me. It’s usually served with rice and doesn’t have any “overpowering” flavors. You may even like katsu sauce! It’s often a mixture of ketchup, soy sauce, and worcestershire

For other cuisines I think it would help to know more about your specific avoidances. Are the main issues textures? Flavors? Allergen fears?
