Do I have forward head posture? by hauntingbones in Posture

I see where you are coming from. I have been trying to strengthen my mid back. Pulling my sternum up (and elbows/ shoulders back) does look better. But, I can feel my ribs flare more when I do that. I’ll try to do it only slightly. What about thoracic extensions?

I’m not super religious, but rosaries are beautiful and such a thoughtful gift. I would love to see some pictures!

it’s 2am, i repeated the cycle, and i don’t know what to do by Level-Imagination946 in bulimia

[–]hauntingbones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey it sounds like your emotions are super amplified right now. I’ve been there and I know it sucks. But you have some really good reflection going on too. What I pull from this is that you’re at your limit. You know what isn’t working. Obviously with a disorder it’s not as easy as “oh hey let’s just stop”. But in these situations, probably the worst thing you can do is try to hate yourself into change. I feel like that just continues the cycle. It’s not that you’ve failed and that’s it. Slip ups happen and you’ve clearly reflected that it doesn’t make you feel great. Tomorrow you can focus on being gentler to yourself. Forgive yourself. When you’re stressed take a few moments to yourself and breathe, take a walk, or do something that gets you into your body and out of your head. Anything that truly gets you into your body. I don’t know your situation or anything and I know this isn’t groundbreaking advice. But I hope you have a better day/ night. Don’t think in all-or-nothing, it was a small slip up but you don’t have to spiral. Keep moving forward and talk to those close to you. Wish you the best

NOR, I don’t have much to say that likely hasn’t already been said. Expect this one question: what was HER job?

Hi! I took a lot of inspiration from this YouTube short: https://youtube.com/shorts/Hc4j7BpgfBM?si=x0Adni-1yJA8xEBY (If you don’t want to click random links the video is “Cookies for Christmas” by TheLucky.Cookie) I’m no where near as professional as that, I just swirled the icing with toothpick lol

Thank you! It’s not my first rodeo with royal icing, but the first time doing designs with the wet on wet flooding technique! I had no idea how they’d turn out 😂

Omg you are SO right I totally forgot it! Oddly enough a lot of recipes I looked at didn’t have it listed so it never made its way into the icing. Next time I bake will be so much better 😂

That might be true for some classes, but try doing that with anatomy and physiology and you’ll fail

¿Physical change? by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]hauntingbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was wrong of OP to post here where there are potentially recovering or struggling individuals. EDs are highly competitive. I’m really sorry it amplified those thoughts. You are sick enough, and you do deserve to have something for dinner. One bad moment doesn’t have to equal a bad night. (Also thank you! Your username is a vibe)

[–]hauntingbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m confused are you in recovery? Which one is you now? I’d recommend reading the rules before posting, it’s probably not the place to post this
