What did YOU eat today?
Don't list the calories, don't list the exercise, don't list portion sizes.
None of those pesky numbers, since we all are different.
One person can need 1400 a day, while another can need 2,500, and it can be really triggering to see someone ate a lower number than yourself.
Therefore, just list the food you ate. This will help us understand the value of eating healthy food (for the nutrients), while also indulging moderately in empty calories when we want. I don't know about you, but I'm aiming for 90% healthy foods - and 10% empty calories. ;)
Also, do not post here if you are starving yourself. I'm not interested in the details, it is only going to get others riled up, and it is triggering to those of us trying to recover from an eating disorder. Okay, thank-you.
Here's me for today:
Breakfast: slept far too late
Lunch: sandwich (100% whole wheat bread, garden burger veggie medley patty, soy dijon "mayo", pickle, lettuce), dried apricots, diet soda, tums, vitamin
Snack: apple, no salt added raw almond butter
Dinner: corn, bell peppers, sugar-snap peas, lettuce, firm tofu, soy dressing, tums
Snack: soy delicious peanut butter zig zag! yumm.

uncleben, no portion sizes please. I tried very hard not to comment on your quite obvious starvation intake, but I can't resist: That is starvation. You are killing yourself. Please get help.
uncleben, if that's really what you ate all day you're headed for serious trouble...
Breakfast: Salad, and lots of it! (Weird, I know, but I likey salad for breakfast.=])
Glass of water.
Snack: Baby carrots, and celery sticks.
Glass of water.
Lunch: Chicken wrap on whole wheat flatbread (with spicy mustard, tomato, mayo, and lettuce.)

im on my period n always gain weight on it thats why im eating barely anything i dont need help lol
uncleben, the weight you gain around the time of and during your period is water retention aka fake weight. And frankly, I don't believe you, I've seen some of your previous posts..in ED topics.
if its fake weight how come it never comes off once im off my rag?
Because you are starving yourself, your body doesn't know how to properly process water, sodium, or calories anymore, and it's clinging to everything it can get.
uncleben, seriously... get help. So what if you gain during your
period? So does the rest of the females in the world. If you keep
things healthy then the weight will come off. Starving yourself is not
eating healthy.
