I ate 2 meals today :)

Baobab

I know it doesn't seem like a big deal but for me, it is.

I ate a sleeve of crackers (wow, I know but still)

And then I consumed a plate of pork roast dinner

I am pleased (scared but pleased) I weighed in at 108 today which is better than the 105 of last week.

Had to look at your profile to figure out how to take this--but congrats! There are a couple others on here trying to gain weight to be healthy as well. I've always said, it's a reminder that each of us have our own demons to fight.

Keep up the good work!

Oh, and roast pork!!

This is a very supportive board.

Please keep eating. I can't tell you how much you hurt those around you by starving yourself. The 40 pounds I'm trying to take off right now was due to the eating I did for a daughter who wouldn't. I would have tanked on thousands of pounds just to get her to eat something! if you take care of your body and your emotional well being, you allow others to be free to take care of themselves. My 18 year-old daughter is on the mend now. Take good care!

nice. it's good to be motivated.

but one thing though is that u should eat a litte multiple times through out the day rather than having 2-3 meals only. this would speed up ur metabolism and u would burn more fat.

Arnab--

Please don't take this wrong--but please read the posts thoroughly and the person's profile if necessary (as I had to do with this one). Sometimes, this is vital to understand a person's post. We sometimes forget that our posts don't contain all knowledge necessary about our situation (which they can't really--I mean, we can't post our bios with each post, right?) and sometimes we skim read posts, too, and miss important information.

Such is the case here--this person is trying to GAIN weight after having endured eating disorders--as in NOT EATING. She's not trying to lose weight and she has no fat to lose. And, from her profile, is lucky to be alive and knows it.

Thanks for your encouragement of her but please read the posts thoroughly first. And I wish you luck with your own journey to health! :flowerforyou:

Good for you! One day at a time and you will meet all your goals. ((hugs))

now this is a fabulus achievement.

You know, it is topics such as this one that are truely inspirational to me. In the UK there is often too much celebrating the little things (in schools and the like) and this has made me quite a cynical person in that regard, but i am truely touched when i read about people making changes to their lives (like we are all trying to do here). Having known a few people when i was at university who have had their personal struggles like this I have second hand expereince of just what this takes (but still could not even begin to conceive of the magnitude of effort it takes). I am not trying to take anything away from the people like me on here that are trying to lose weight, it is tough, i know, but the mindset and change in attitude to pull back from the brink is just enormous.

This is a huge achievement, and hopefully one that you can build on (i'm sure we can all help with ideas for things to put on those crackers).

Really, well done, i don't say that often, and when i do i really mean it!

You're all so lovely.

It's so incredibly uplifting to read responses like the ones I've received here. On days when you're struggling, knowing you've got people behind you is so wonderful.

Thank you so much.
