Checking in daily to maintain focus #38

Pretty good for a Monday I suppose. My usual pre-work anxiety is worse than usual due to recent events, but I won’t be at this job much longer.
Made the necessary phone calls to start the ball rolling regarding the online classes. :nerd_face:

Midday check in
Day 8
Good day so far. Workout complete, readings n prayer n yoga poses for Root Chakra complete. Already am half way thru my household cleaning. Eating is average… not great but not good either. My friend is a competitive bodybuilder and nutritionist and she has offered to help me get my numbers together and help me with nutrition :slight_smile: She is a vegetarian tho and I love my meat so we may have to make some adjustments. Recovery is good so far. Very minimal cravings… but I am also making sure not to slack this time around on what I need to do. Just sort of finding what works for me :slight_smile: hope everyone is having a good day!

@Hopeful777 Congratulations!

@CATMANCAM So glad to see you again! I am rooting for you! Did the hospital set up any longterm help for you?

@seekingsolace Those are hard ages. Too big for naps and being entertained endlessly by a sandpit, but too young to entertain themselves. Aren’t @anon53116147 kids a similar age?

Good thing I can’t wear Nikes. This OG is stuck wearing ugly New Balance :grimacing:. But I got happy feet and that’s more important than looks.

Love your high tops.

Best thing I ever did for my parenting! Simple, kind, sensible.

When searching for a pic of the book, I see they have YouTube companion videos. Anyone I have recommended it to has had great things to say about the results. I wish you all the good parenting vibes. Parenting is HARD!

Day 285 clean from self harm. This is pretty much turning into my diary lol.

Very busy day. Was supposed to go clothes shopping today, since all of my clothes are full of holes and/or just don’t fit anymore. It’s been at least 3 years since I bought clothes.

Anyway, I’m anorexic. Not even really in recovery, just trying to eat to the point I’m not fainting. Im overweight so I couldn’t find any clothes in my size that I liked. I ended up leaving with 1 shirt. It’s got me very upset and I just want to fully slip back into starving myself. I had a big brunch before all of this, but now feeling proud of myself about that had turned into hating myself for it. It’s only 4pm, but for now no urges to self harm. It’s been a long day so I’ll probably fall asleep before the later hours of the night where I start to feel really bad.

Wishing you all the best.

We always shy away when we need people the most.
There’s no shame in trying to recover even if we fail as long as we keep on trying.
