fucked my entire day up thinking about an undead person intentionally inhaling and exhaling while holding or sleeping beside someone they love even though they don't need to because the motion and sound of breath makes them feel safe and secure
#🐉#this is tangentially a#VALshrue#post#idk if VAL *needs* to breathe anymore but she does say she doesnt eat or sleep#so i like to imagine her intentionally choosing to sometimes just to make shrue feel less alone#like how cats show affection by mirroring you even though it doesnt benefit them in any way#<- thoughts of a guy who is extremely healthy and well btw

Every time I've watched this shot, it's seemed awkward to me.
Yeah, Sammy, a gun case is on you. You weigh a hundred and fifty pounds, you're FINE. It's not that heavy!
I even looked it up when I thought, "Actually, guns might be heavy", but A: the guns aren't even in the case and B: they weigh about ten pounds apiece, so it should only be twenty pounds. Maybe another ten or so if it's a good, heavy case." But then, I went back to see, and--
MY GIRL GOT ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED.
Empty or not (ammo), that's still a twenty-pound weight that Sammy almost took to the face!
She gets her arm out, but that still takes her in the shoulderblade, and it looks like the corner still wrecks her skull. She's not lying on the ground because it's a heavy case, she's down there because the world is nothing but flashing stars and the lightning bolts of pain from her spine! She's waking up the next day with two HUGE bruises!!! If she was half a second slower, she'd probably have been concussed!
#also shout-out to yaz for dodging and just letting Sammy eat that#obviously she's just gotten healthy and is much smaller and less tanky#but still#sammy gutierrez#jurassic world: camp cretaceous#jwcc#camp cretaceous#thanks for the heads-up DARIUS#and yeah looking it up a pelican case with foam is about 25 lbs#so even empty that's a thirty-pound weight ramming into her#that's her scar#she's gonna feel THAT in her forties

Had an appointment with a nutritionist and he said you can thrive on only protein and fat, eating 0 vegetables and fruit (with the addendum "not that I'm saying that you should!")
edit: i found his insta and this explains a lot actually
#that dont sound right at all sir#also why am i getting an entire pharmacy worth of supplements with no blood test#and my last blood test was perfect#??????????????????????????????????????#like ill take some advice but a lot of it. i just dont think is healthy sorry KJGNFDKJNGFD#i KNOW im not the doctor but how the fuck is 'eat less vegetables' a sane suggestion#though if i am dumb let me know

*clenches teeth and fists* it's fine no one comments on how Dorian is more "lithe" than before. It's fine that he's not "nearly as bulky". It's fine that he doesn't sleep well then has to wake up just to be the sunny optimist the next day. It's fine that his strings are wound so tight that he's ready to snap.
It's fine that Dorian's health is being ignored. He's the new guy, right? Fresh faced? Not burdened by the trauma of the last few months, right?
#silver sending stones#cr 3 e 104#its been bothering me for 10 episodes#dorian storm#tw body image#tw disordered eating#the way he casually talks about being “lithe” less “bulky”#those are very nice words for weight loss#it makes me sad#ot makes my heart hurt#because rations and regular fights kept him at the same weight through exu and e 1-10#its the stress that came from baby sitting his brother#it reminds me of when i wasnt eating and everyone just told me how good i looked#like i dont think we've had a sit down and eat moment since dorian came back but ill be watching like a hawk#he started choking on the cookie...#sigh#i just want dorian and orym to be happy and healthy and well fed#the way orym talks about food also freaks me out#“i only eat protein”#and like we've seen him eat other things so like its okay#but the constant working out is a little 😬#orym and dorian are going to retire to zephra and theyre going to get soft and live peaceful lives#theyre both going to just let their bodies rest

Did stretches twice today
And with profound sadness I must report, they do help making your body easier to move
#silly talks#i feel more nimble and less heavy#as if moving doesn't require that much energy as before#even my thermoregulation seems better#damn#i don't wanna do stretches and keep my sleep schedule clean and eat healthy#but i must

skyglow:
(alternative title: photo dump of a midnight desert run)
#photography#Ford's Art#color says shit#it was either go on a twelve mile run or re-download grindr and get absolutely blasted so I went with the more responsible option.#b because damn I'm feeling it tonight. or at least I was before the run. I need to shower and then I'll cook dinner and go to bed satiated.#I did also jerk off under the bridge and then piss on someone's flowers on the way home. gotta get those animal instincts out somehow right?#anyway I've successfully vented most of my manic energy and a cold shower will finish it off and then we're good.#the mood meds have been helping a lot. last time I got hit with this kind of a mood I came out of it with huge bite marks and chlamydia.#and I haven't been feeling it nearly as bad this time so that's nice. more like a restless dog and less like a caged wolf thirsty for blood.#yes I'm making references to Call of the Wild again deal with it.#anyway sorry to anyone who sees this from the tags and not because you follow me. you didn't sign up for this lmao.#also. this is why I can't be a binary trans woman. this night photography shit is the most gay-man thing ever and I enjoy it.#I was doing it before my last boyfriend but he got me even more into it.#anyway bye I'm gonna go shower and then eat food. I've been hungrier more recently.#between the meds and the hrt my appetite is bigger and I'm gaining weight with the hrt fat redistribution which is cool and good.#I want to be a healthy weight and maybe even a lil chonky? we'll see we'll see.

it genuinely is true that people don't care how a fat person loses weight as long as they do
#you're fat you lose weight no one will even vaguely wonder if you've done that in a healthy way#bc well of course the fact you're a little less fat is what counts! you can't possibly be less healthy if you're less fat!#and obviously the fact everyone has been hammering you about losing weight for fucking ever is not an important thing to factor in#because it's not like that makes you feel like you're wrong the way you are which makes it sooo easy to develop an eating disorder#totally not!#(heavy sarcasm)#whatever tho you lost weight people are sooooo happy bc you look soooo much better. right#fatphobia tw

Huh. If my life was a quote, it'd be "one of those sad ones with a deceptively happy tune"
#quote from MLP:FIW#sorryyyy been kinda angry about my step family all day#sorry but im so tired of my Stepmom acting like she raised decent kids#my step brother is like 25 and living in my dads home. hes unironically an andrew tate fan and treats his very disabled girlfriend like shit#step sister always got compred to my sister who's the same age and put step sis in the light every time EVEN THO MY SIS WAS LITERALLY BETTER#<- like grades n shit#also both step sibs are gross. never cleans up ever. step brother and his gf are banned from the basement#step bro went to juvy when he was 16 and step sis had a trial last year and almost went to jail#also step sis has mono and would rather die than cover her mouth#i feel bad for SB's girlfriend because she has no other support system and sometimes it feels like SB or SS is trying to kill her?????#my dad threatened to kick out the adults if the house is dirty (adults being SB. SBG. SS. My sister. Aunt.)#My sister does SO MUCH HOUSEWORK and nobody cares and im mad#also bullshit rules recently have made my potential eating disorder worse#i don't think its healthy to rather starve than wash a dish but i actually have cried several times over this#not to mention how much i accidentally starve myself#also our food has been less and less because I don't know what I'm allowed to eat anymore because of my step family#also i have to share the smallest room with my sister. its okay tho ilh and i wouldn't want to get rid of her#sometimes it feels like my stepmom doesn't like me or my sisters because we're “weird”. childish interests and artistic#she lectured me about having missing assignments and I started crying#i said i just forgot to turn in some before the deadline and she called me lazy#<- Oops! so close. its actually THE MENTAL ILLNESS#my sisters and i feel like shit#i feel like my safe space is with my oldest sister.#and you all too! i love you guys#i just feel trapped. trapped by my step family. trapped by my own mind.#i was just starting to feel free from the burden of school and she just made me feel more stressed.#i didn't want to study because she killed the little motivation I had#Spanish exam is now “Fuck it we ball”#sorry for the personal post

went to a new PCP the other day and was giving them my health sparknotes and I could just tell they didn't believe me when I told them how often I exercised. the doctor even emphasized it as i was leaving and told me to make sure i was **really** trying to get my movement in and eating my vegetables. i'm sorry my body is a shape that you find suspicious but I promise I'm already doing that.
#this is like the third fatphobic microaggression from a stranger i've had in the last month#UGH i'm so annoyed.#not that i would be like... less deserving of respect if i didn't work out/eat healthy#but it sucks to be doing everything a doctor would probably like to see with great bloodwork#and still be condescended to#cw weight / fatphobia etc

Oh my godd why can't healthy things also be quick and easy to eat and require very little preparation and keep well and have the amount of calories I need
#i'm struggling#i want to eat more healthily so i can have as much energy as possible#so i've started incorporating veggies into my meals and snacks more#and i've started cooling more curries to eat with rice#the problem is these things are Not as filling#and require more time to eat#more prep time#it's like more effort for less calories#and ever since i started this job i've kept losing weight but i didn't want to#like i need that!#if i eat healthy snacks it's just like. i could be spending that time eating half a bag of chips for double the amount of food#i only have a certain amount of time

So, I started working at a sheltered workplace on Monday and although I'm soooo exhausted, I'm actually enjoying it too. I feel like more of a normal person now. Get up early in the morning. Go to work. Have breaks. Wish everyone a Schönen Feierabend™️. Go home. Go grocery shopping. Chill until it's time to go to bed. Have a real weekend. Nice.
#personal posts#i immediately feel more useful#also my support worker mothered me today lmao because i'm in a depression hole#when i told her i haven't been eating healthy she went grocery shopping with me#then helped me water my plants and gave me some tasks to do so that my room is less of a mess#she also wants to go to the PIA with me so that I can get a higher dose of my antidepressants for winter#she really is like a mom#well#definitely more of a mom than my mom has ever been so stings a bit#but honestly she is so lovely#she's a tough like kind of person and told me that she will kick my butt to get me back on track and tbh i need that

the amount of effort that goes into figuring out what to cook and eat every day is RIDICULOUS. i used to think people were so weird and boring for eating the same thing every single day but it truly does make life so much easier
#and also it's nice to know exactly what your food is going to taste like before you eat it#like when i get unfamiliar takeout. half the time i'm like. oh.#i'm going to have to eat all of this. or be judged.#so i just do my best to suppress my gag reflex and Get Through It and then it makes me sick so what was even the point#i think my parents spoiled me. and the most annoying thing is they're significantly better at cooking now than when i was a child#so when i go over i eat three delicious home cooked meals + snacks and they're all different and amazingggg#and then i come back to texas and i am like. googling 'how to feed myself healthy vegetarian'#because I do NOT have the time or money or energy to cook three beautiful delicious meals Just For Me#i think this would be easier with a partner#this whole week i bought a fuckton of mediterranean groceries and i have been making and eating food!!#mediterranean is close enough to indian that i like it well enough#unfortunately for me. i am def going to have to learn how to cook indian food to get through life. because i cannot fucking eat american#i don't know HOW you guys do it i'm so spoiled#i'm assuming meat is this really amazing wonderful thing that just adds flavor to everything#(it is physically repulsive to me and the couple times ive accidentally tasted it it's bleh so i refuse to partake)#i think it's an acquired taste but it magically makes ur food better. that is my understanding of how meat works#cause american vegetarian food is the saddest fucking thing i've ever tasted#i still think about my coworker i was talking to about my food issues and he was like. 'do u understand that you have been given a gift#by having constant access to tasty food your entire life. i ate unseasoned green beans every day of my childhood. learn how to fucking cook#indian food already.' truly a horrific thing to hear. but i'm calling my parents more and going HOW TO COOK VEGETABLE? BEAN? PLEASE HELP??#and by god i am not going to turn into my coworker.#anyways we start with baby steps. lentils and rice it is next week .-. going to the indian store to buy pickles to make it more tolerable#and i have my cabinet full of spices already at least#i wish i was less pickyyy#sometimes lalita cooks indian food for me and i'm like wow. i love and appreciate u for feeding me. but this sure is south indian food#i don't understand How they use spices. it feels like they toss as much of as many bottles as they can into every dish#and it's. the taste is just OW OW OW and nothing else. where's the nuance. the flavor.#and i like it when things are spicy!! i can even eat things where the flavor is just Hot. but not when she cooks it.#she will like watch my face when i take a bite and then go 'if you don't like it i'm throwing away all my pots and running away'#which. honestly a fair reaction. the problem is that i am incapable of lying

Take this post as a sign to start keeping snacks in your room, in reach of wherever you spend the most time if possible. Moving is hard and you don't know what to eat? No longer an issue thanks to the valiant efforts of Rice Cakes Kept Under The Bed
#most important attributes are no preparation/clean-up and making sure its something youre always gonna b able to make yrself eat#but something that doesnt cause crumbs is also a mega bonus especislly if u do end up eating it on yr bed#a box of cereal can last u a rlly long time if youre fine w eating it dry#n thats also good bcos if itll last a long time you dont have to worry abt saving for a time youre even less able to go to the kitchen#u can Try for something healthy but hey food is food as long as it fills u up#+ for that reason pretzels r my fave for this but they run out quick since i dont stop eating em

198 today. Don't think about the number, it is just data.
I am pretty confident yesterday was good. I would have liked a workout tho.
Today is a new day to succeed.
Staying positive. Working on reducing distractions.
But lord knows, if I followed my brain, I would read nothing but diet related books and watch videos etc. But it that helping or hindering?
Somehow I don't think focusing on food is helping so I am trying to adjust my external inputs to non food related activities, videos and books.
It is hard when my brain automatically redirects to searching how so and so lost weight, how to break a plateau, etc. Obviously information is not the answer, action is. But it also has to be consistent & sustainable.
Daily habits need to adjust over time to avoid rebounding.
As I know too well, exercise can't be too much or more recovery time will be needed.
Relax and adjust.
By September, I could be 150 pounds if I wanted and could build those habits.
So, what can I do today that will encourage success? 🤔
What can I do to encourage self love?
Stress reduction?
Think about it and di those things. Whatever you need for today is ok. If today is not a hard workout day, maybe some stretching and a gentle walk.
Maybe a bath?
Healthy choices. Protein. Veggies.
Focus on school/work.... but allow yourself some down time.
Give yourself as many hugs as you need. 🤗

so fucking upset. i looked up what's considered concerning weight loss and got a statistic. i looked up the same question but specified teens and i got a bunch of articles about how to lose weight. what the fuck
#tw weight loss#? idk if that tags necessary but better safe than sorry#past this point there is discussion of ARFID and stuff#LMFAO also ive had a medium to mild case of ARFID my entire life and no one noticed past concern for my pickiness#i say medium to mild because ive gotten better recently#i even ate half a bowl of the noodles i dont like the other day. AND they had been touched by shrimp & cabbage juice & soft peanuts#i mean i did drown them in soy sauce first and got nauseous thinking about it the rest of the day. but progress#i mean. im the type of person to skip a meal or barely eat because i dont like the food available or its too loud where i am#my adhd impacts it too like sometimes ill forget to eat or wont be able to make anything that day#but like goddamn. a growing child should be gaining weight. 'we should keep an eye on that' every single time and then no action#you know maybe thats part of why my body hurts sometimes and feels weird and shaky other times#its hard to tell based on how bony i am or whatever because i also naturally am a string bean and im not. like. starving myself#i get the same comments about how i should eat more and how im so skinny when im healthy and when im not#or i used to. people are generally less intrusive now that im older#gosh i need to flex my metaphorical brain muscles more i put way too much thought into the wording of this
