i wouldn't get your hopes up.

We have the Monday off here, a bank holiday for something or other...

but i don't know about anywhere else.. i'm just glad its one more day mook-free.

 

[Caelestia]

@salmy: saturday is labour day here, so we get monday off. and tuesday... i'm not sure, but i'm not about to question it

 

[Sunjammer]

NF: Like a million bucks. I met that person who's very important to me today. I care so much about her. Ah, why did we only get two hours together today...

 

[Northern Lights]

NF: empty, spent, even though I haven't done anything even remotely useful today.

Also, perplexed by an article in a school paper published by a local school, which appeared in their latest edition. It was something of a tribute article to a girl who had lost about 27 kg in six months. They treated her like a role model, someone whose dieting tips one should definitely take after. And what were they? Skip breakfast and drink only water and coffee. Walk at least 6 km every day. Among other things...
And here was I thinking breakfast was the most important meal of the day and that it has been scientifically proved that skipping breakfast is more likely to increase your weight because it sets the body in starvation mode and thus 'produces' the fat in order to save you...
They also had before and after pics of her, and she has the skinniest stick legs but still a somewhat inflated stomach, like a beer belly. Like a friend said, "if she gave up the beer and the candy she wouldn't have that". Then again, she can do what she likes. I'm just puzzled as to why anyone would think this is a good example to set? Especially to fairly young students, aged 16-18, especially with so many people already having plenty of eating disorders...

NF: *sigh* Kind of lost and lonely, i just wish things were ok.

 

[Rusty]

NF: So very tired and drained and useless and despondent. I've also found out that the report I have to write has to be in 2 days earlier than I'd thought, which means more frantic working than I'd expected. Oops. :/

 

[King Chaos]

@Northen Lights. I entirely agree. Theres this girl at my school who has literally wasted away, shes popular but is clearly anorexic. My girlfriend thinks if she skips break fast and just eats chocolate bars and crisps now and then she'll stay thin. She used to be really petite but now her attampt at a diet is changing things (for the wider).

NF: Im ok apart from a mega bad stomach ache that I just got. Tonight Im watching an anime film by the same team that made spirited away... It looks ace I cant wait.

 

[Salamurhaaja]

Oh man, you people have gotta stop listening to Katatonia/Anathema/My Dying Bride

NF: Sunny and great, life is smiling... oh yeah, I am not at work

My girlfriend thinks if she skips break fast and just eats chocolate bars and crisps now and then she'll stay thin.

Sounds like my friend. Her weight yoyo-ed around all the bloody time. She had a warped perception of what a healthy diet should be. "Skip meals, ladeda, okay I've skipped a whole day! Now I'll reward myself with *mmrrfmmrfff* these brownies *mmrmrrffrffrm* I baked!" And she baked a lot... cookies, cakes, pastries, etc. Mmm.

Well, people should realize that the only way to lose weight (if you're not blessed with a hyperactive metabolism like our mighty moderator) is eating moderate quantites of healthy food. Having fruit for breakfast instead of pancakes, for example. Eating some carbohydrates (pasta, pizza, rice, bread) but not a lot. Renouncing potatos for light vegetables such as salad and tomato. Skipping ice cream. Wine instead of beer, no spirits. But this doesn't look appealing to the mad dieters because it does not give any feeling of "Look at how dramatic I'm being, I'm starving myself to death", plus it forces people to actually cook and put some effort in selecting spices etc. if they want their food to be tasty without becoming oppressively heavy.

 

[Dark_Jester]

Spoilesteth?

 

[rahvin]

*claps hands at hyena*

*smiles awkwardly at ben*

 

[Dark_Jester]

*Agrees with Hyena* I had to look at a ton of pro-anorexia sites as part of the internet crime module today (focus today was on deviance rather than illegality), some of the pictures that the people idolise made me feel physically sick.

i can picture that...

i don't care nearly as much anymore, hurrah! except occasionally when i look in the mirror and see my candy belly and think, ugh. but then i give myself a kick in the arse and tell myself to stop being a whiny bitch. and all is good again.
