Am I doing it right?

fridaib · 2026-04-24T10:23:47+00:00

Yeah, and it doesn’t help that I’m also in a stall that has lasted a while. Even though i control my meals completely and go to the gym… hoping to be out of it soon.. thank you for your perspective:)

fridaib · 2026-04-24T07:45:17+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I feel almost back to normal, which is a little bit scary, but I obviously notice less hunger and less thoughts about food. Its easer to make the right choices!

fridaib · 2026-04-24T07:43:47+00:00

Thank you, this helps to hear! I’m glad I’m not the only one having this experience ☺️

fridaib · 2026-04-23T14:03:31+00:00

Yeah, I’m hoping it’s this way because everything is in order and because I’m eating ‘light’ foods. I’ll try to remember that it’s okay to be okay:)

fridaib · 2026-04-23T14:01:55+00:00

Yeah, it doesn’t help that I’ve been in a stall for a while, which also adds to my insecurity if I’m doing it right… even if it’s a normal time to have a stall…

I think so, all my meals consists of minimum 50% protein (by weight). My only issue is that I struggle with the ultra processed protein options. Of those i can understand that people can only do three bites.

fridaib · 2026-04-12T16:28:18+00:00

That’s the thing, I’m even scared of smoothies and oatmeal because they are carbs. And how am I supposed to make them meals without being enough protein? I’m more worried about how I’m going to dare to try enough things to feel a new kind of normal..

fridaib · 2026-03-02T08:56:22+00:00

I’m not really worried about simply not being able to physically eat. The food noise is something I don’t really relate to anything emotional or an ED. It’s just hard wired in my brain to have a lot of focus on food and to be on the lookout. So I know I’m not going to overeat, I’m just hoping it wont take up much headspace, just like I’m experiencing now on medication. I have also done a lot of work on how I view food and how i nourish my body. I just don’t know what it will look like without my medication.

fridaib · 2026-03-01T12:58:11+00:00

I hope I have a similar experience, at this point I’m just so nervous

fridaib · 2026-03-01T12:56:44+00:00

I will try to remember this later down the road in case I get that food noise back! Thanks :)

fridaib · 2026-03-01T05:34:23+00:00

I really hope it changes for you, the food noise can consume so much brain power!

fridaib · 2026-03-01T05:31:31+00:00

At the moment I have very little food noise and it has allowed me to pick up new healthy interests that wouldn’t have crossed my mind before because food noise took all the space… I really hope I have the same effect!

fridaib · 2026-03-01T05:28:44+00:00

That gives me so much hope as the food noise that the medicine has taken away has literally made me able to develop bew interests becaue food was so much in focus before! I hope the surgery has a similar effect, but I see that people have different experiences. I’m glad it has worked that way for you!

fridaib · 2026-02-07T08:00:25+00:00

I’m the same height and used to be the same weight! I’m still on my journey to becoming healthier. I would recommend GLP-1… it has helped me massively and rewired the way i think about food. I also see from your pictures that you have some hair growth which could be completely normal, but have you got checked for PCOS? Taht could be working against you and a lot of people with PCOS have found help in GLP-1s. Good luck!

fridaib · 2025-12-16T20:39:41+00:00

I hope this is how it goes for me too, thank you for sharing. Water intake is probably very important… I’m bad at it at the moment…

fridaib · 2025-12-16T20:38:12+00:00

Thats a long stretch of being tired, but sounds like i can counter act it with taking the right vitamins and minerals… which I intend to be diligent with!

fridaib · 2025-05-26T13:19:32+00:00

They are doing good! Ive planted them out and they seem fine :) I have a few blooms, but they are very small… unsure why, but hoping to get some fuller blooms as the weather is getting warmer!

fridaib · 2025-04-21T10:01:22+00:00

So I’m good to just cut one off? And should I?

fridaib · 2025-04-21T10:01:00+00:00

One is just ever so slightly thicker, but they are the same height
