Howdy.

So this morning I went to the doctors, to get my blood test results. Everything was normal, he said that my Iron and Vitamin D were maybe a little low, but that those were easily fixed. Then he wanted me to step on the scales, which was obviously my least favourite part of the appointment. I gained. One week ago the scale was XX.70kg and today it was XX.90kg. Nothing to worry about, right?? Wrong. ED went crazy on me, saying how I failed and how 200g was still a big deal, because it was almost a quarter of a kg, and how many extra calories I had to have eaten in order to gain this much, etc etc. It made me really upset, but I couldn't show the doctor or my mum that I felt that way. It was so hard to keep my emotions in check.


Sorry if that was triggering or anything, but it's just the way I felt (or the way ED made me feel). It's like I have this whole thing under control, then suddenly ED storms in and demands to take control over me, and I can't do anything to stop it, even though I'm trying. I'm trying so hard.

Anyway, on another note, the lovely Nat tagged me to do a little quiz, and I thought I'd do it this post :)

The rest of my day will include me studying at the State Library....not very fun. My first exam is tomorrow, I'm so nervous, you have no idea. It's hard to study for Literature, especially when you get given three passages to write on randomly on the day. Breathe, Amy, breathe.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!!

  3. All the best for your exams!
    And don't be upset about the 200g! Your body is not a static object, it fluctuates a little everyday :)

  5. 200g is actually not such a big deal as what ED makes it out to be. It could even be due to fluid changes...Remember to think of the big picture- to be healthy again!

    Don't worry so hard about your exams. I know you CAN do it! :D

    Stay strong.

  6. Hun, say nay to ED! You are stronger than that and really, 200g? My doctor would be threatening to shove me back into hospital if I gained that amount in a week. But I know it's tough and it's ok to feel a little freaked out. Just know that you are gaining your health back and you deserve to live life fully, as AMY!
