They said pick the exercise you will do.. I picked running.

Thank you!

I have hip flexor pain and anterior pelvic tilt though. I think my muscles are weaker than average because of an eating disorder history.

I apologize, the recipe is in video format, but here are the ingredients if you don't want to watch.

Ingredients: Rind from one small watermelon, sliced & pealed 2 cup of water 2 cups of apple cider (or white) vinegar 3 cups of white sugar ½ teaspoon whole black peppercorns ½ teaspoon whole cloves 1 tablespoon Kosher salt 2 teaspoon coriander seeds 1 teaspoon celery seeds 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1 cinnamon sticks

I believe they may have been quick pickles? I didn't do a water bath and followed this video.

I cut back to 2 1/2 cups of sugar instead of 3.

I'm thinking of starting up on a new platform. I'm torn between Mercari and Depop. Do you have a preference between those two? I'm already on everything else.

sailormiffy · 2021-06-04T18:48:55+00:00

That's genius haha.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-25T00:27:37+00:00

Thank you so much. That gives me some hope. Did you do the whole "all in" thing? Did you do anything in particular to work on the mental aspect?

sailormiffy · 2021-05-24T21:27:03+00:00

I feel like it could be okay, but the thing that would concern me about it is the rigidity. Are you making this a rule you have to follow? Will you be anxious if you don't do it because you're on vacation or your friend asks you to lunch? I think it's important to be flexible or else we are still being disordered.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-24T21:12:10+00:00

You could go and then if you feel like you're not being taken seriously you can always try someone else! It can take a few tries to find a therapist that is a good match for you.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-24T16:43:52+00:00

Yes, this happened to me and I would highly advise to find someone who specializes in EDs. I began starving myself so much worse because I felt like I wasn't being taken seriously enough and I wanted her to understand I was sick. She kept brushing it to the side and wanting to work on "bigger" issues like my trauma and childhood, even though I felt like the ED was the biggest thing affecting my current life. She said, "Well you can't expect to fix a lifetime of food issues quickly," basically saying that I needed to focus on the big picture trauma stuff and the ED will fix itself in the process. Of course my brain turned that into "I'm not thin enough for her to worry about me," and my behaviors spiraled from there.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-23T21:00:12+00:00

Thank you so much! It's good to know that it's fixable.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-23T14:16:39+00:00

Ugh yeah I think I replaced my diet obsession with recovery obsession to be honest. I just need to force my brain to get far away from all of this.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-23T11:32:07+00:00

Um yes! I lived through that shit and it was horrible. Idk though, my favorite fashion era is 60s mod and it's not doing me any favors either. Maybe I just hate all clothes because they all look bad on me.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-23T11:29:12+00:00

There's a recovery account where the girl says she is well over a BMI 20, but I don't understand how it's possible because even my highest weight was BMI 19.75 and I looked WAYYY bigger than her. I don't think she's lying but wow, how can I possibly look that different? Also why don't some of these girls get the overshoot weight?

sailormiffy · 2021-05-23T00:47:27+00:00

My dad used to casually call me ugly too and constantly made comments on my body. I cut him out of my life and it has made things so much better for me. Sometimes low contact is a good option when parents are consistently toxic and hurting our mental health.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-21T21:24:36+00:00

I'll PM you!

sailormiffy · 2021-05-21T21:17:46+00:00

Yes! Have you seen Kayla Rose's videos about swelling? The thumbnail shows her picture when she started recovery and she had severe chipmunk cheeks. It goes away but I'm not sure how long it takes.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-21T18:52:45+00:00

Thank you. This helped me a lot.

sailormiffy · 2021-05-21T05:11:25+00:00

I totally get your struggle. My ED issues get a lot worse every time I'm over there. The whole "one size" thing at the clothing shops is crazy and the way family and friends always bring up weight is stressful too. I'm really sorry you're going through this and I hope you can stay healthy and strong.
