Today I am working on our costumes for a venice masks festival next weekend.
My daughter is going as a phoenix, my costume is seen as swan or angel.
Have a peaceful day everyone ![]()
Your MAKING these costumes? How cool is that?! Sounds like it will be a lot of fun!
I donât make them entirely by myself. Itâs more that I am searching for individual parts and combine them. But itâs still some sewing / crafting needed ![]()
I will share pictures again, the festival is next Weekend.
Day 14
Today marks 2 weeks without disordered eating/binge eating. Im really proud of myself! Im hoping I can stay vigilant and consistent with this. I definitly have to stay on my toes. Being constantly aware of WHY Im eating can be exhausting. But planning meals helps alot. Ive also done well this weekend so far at work. Eating a bit more with higher fiber and protein at work helps me not binge eat at night. So thats good! Feeling positive about the progress!
Checking in. I dont know how many days, maybe 3? 2? I had that 2 days of binge/overeating couple of days ago but after that all was under control. Still is.
@DanielaJ beautiful costumes and what a cute cool monsters
You are very talented
Edit: Iâve just checked, itâs day 5 already. Nice surprise
Huge congrats on two weeks! That is amazing!!! I am sooooo proud of you.

Day 1895 : No binge today. ![]()
Youâre very creative, Daniela
I hope you will have fun! Looking forward to seeing the photos of your costumes for this year ![]()
How is your situation with the job btw?
Congratulations on your 2 weeks!
Youâre building new habits and learning about your body and what it needs. E.g. that eating certain nutritions during the day will help you staying away from binging later in the evening. I think itâs quite valuable knowledge. Well done ![]()

I also hope that you will stay on this path and I canât see why not. Itâs one day at time. If you feel like you want to binge, ask yourself one question: âWhatâs the point?â. At that very moment you want to change how you feel. Even if sometimes you may think that you donât have emotions you want to change. Sometimes itâs simply boredom, or some similar, not necessarily too dramatic emotion. Once I was visiting my partnerâs family and it became too much and I wanted to go home. I thought I had fun and didnât even realise that was how I felt. I wanted to binge at that place and didnât understand why. My therapist helped me to find the emotions I had. So sometimes we donât even know we feel uncomfortable because some levels of discomfort became normal to us. That doesnât mean we like it and obviously weâre still looking for ways to cope. What I want to say is that binging seems like a nonsense when it comes to coping with something. I understand why we do it from the scientific point of view. But if you manage to take a look from wider point of view, it seems ridiculous that we believe that eating, which is designed for our survival only, will sort something out for us. And itâs even more ridiculous that we find out that it doesnât and that in fact it makes us feel worse and yet we go and repeat it. Such an irrational pattern. So I always ask myself whatâs the point of stuffing my mouth with food when it wonât solve anything, will make me feel like a crap and failure and will only add on the pile of my problems.
Again, very well done for 2 weeks, itâs amazing ![]()
Thank you for asking! I am currently in the third round for a very interesting job. I would love to do that and hope I get it.
Itâs a job at a NGO and itâs about creating more solidarity in our world. Almost too good to be trueâŚ.
I think they know who they need for the position and if they see who I am and how much I can contribute, they will pick me. If they donât, itâs sad, but also kind if okay because I want to be seen and appreciated at my work.
Iâll keep you posted ![]()
Gosh, I wish you get it if itâs a job youâd love to do.
for you!! ![]()
Your mindset is at the best place about it too. Youâre awesome ![]()

Thank u sooo much for the congratulations and for what u wrote! I LOVED what u had to say and actually opened my eyes a bit (especially the part about how we can get used to levels of discomfort and so we may not even realize we are uncomfortable). It makes soo much sense to me
I am actually going to save ur post so that i can refer to it often. Thank u again!! Wise words friend ![]()
Day 1896 : No binge today. ![]()
1 month & 6 days no binge
My partner bought something for his snoring which I am praying will work because I 2 sleepless nights. Unfortunately, I am a light sleeper and to get to deep sleep takes me like an hour or two (unless Iâm really knackered which is rare). So any noise within the time frame wakes me up. I have on white noise for that reason which kinda blocks noises coming from the street or neighbours but not the snoring coming from the person right next to me
I am glad I slept very well and long over the weekend ![]()
Yesterday, I had a rather generous piece of fruit cake as a snack after my dinner. I also had chocolate oat biscuits on my tray as an option of a snack in case the cake itself wouldnât satisfy me. Thatâs was an old behaviour and kinda trap there. Fortunately, I felt satisfied after the cake and didnât eat anything afterwards. I still consider âbeing satisfiedâ as a miracle, because before it took much more food to reach at least some level of satisfaction. I feel like I am starting to eat like âa normal personâ..
It feels good.
I still have issues with being bloated and feeling fat, which I can see can be connected. Since I started the therapy, I donât feel well in my body. I am ignoring it because I am happy that I am not binging, but I would like to feel fit and confident like before. Binging was awful, but for some reason I felt better in my body most of the days. Me and my therapist are working on body image, or whatever. So far we touched it only lightly. I hope that whatever is coming , that it will help me to feel better. E.g. today I didnât even eat yet and I already feel like I ate a whole day worth of food how bloated I amâŚ
Maybe I am eating too close to the bed time, but to be able to fit these 6 meals into my diet, I have to. I am 100% that once I donât have to be tracking the food I ate, I wonât be doing this. I am hating it most of the time..
