What do you think to all this free freelee drama between Freelee and blogilates?
I feel like they both have stupid followings and need to get off the web lol
Do you think you'd be where you are today if it wasn't for Instagram? Do you think you'd be in a better or worse place?
No idea. Somewhere between the two

Someone explain to me please why anons are so obsessed with what people's intakes are?¿?
Reassurance and anxiety reduction
I know these are so annoying but please help me. I've been weight restored for well over a year now but for the past 6 months or so I've been calorie counting and making sure I stay at 2000. If I was to stop counting now and eat what I wanted but it took me to a lot more than 2000, what would happen
having the exact same problem lol but I can tell ya I have more energy now and feel happier in myself! X

Do u think 700cals is too much for dinner? I'm happy with what I had and not hungry but idk I feel like it was a lot, just want some advice. Also, today was my first day reaching +2000cals and I know that's not enough but I'm slowly increasing and I feel amazing and good omg!!! xx
'I'm slowly increasing and I feel amazing and good omg!!! xx'
Cling on to that feeling and not the feeling of 'is that too much?'.
That is you speaking, the idea that you've eaten too much is your ED speaking.

Hey, you need at least 2500 x
Watcha doing

Do you like your neighbours?
I don't really know them, lol!
When the government say to eat 2000 calories, who is this actually aimed at?
I thnk its a really old study of the general populations intake.
I really am not certain that it has any scientific grounding whatsoever.
I feel STARVING on 2000 calories a day and maintain on a lot more.

You are really kind. Have a fabulous weekend. x
Thank you! You too!
Do you still sing? ♪♫
Yes - mostly to myself though!
I feel so guilty that I've been in recovery for a year and haven't even relapsed once. Am I one big fake?😩
God no! You're just strong. I admire you! Relapse is not a sign of weakness in the slightest.
What was your greatest holiday adventure?
Geneva with these fabulous people!
Aw I hope you are okay Lucy. x I'm struggling a lot with stuff at the moment but trying to survive. Plus I have the flu or something 😷
Getting there thanks! Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear! Hope things start looking up for you soon!
Ditto actually! Bloody illnesses😷😷😷

What's your insta? The one in your bio doesn't work :)
Oh it's just lucyholdcroft now! I don't use it very much anymore and I deleted my ED recovery posts when I left the community last year 🙈
When did you dye your hair? OMG ♥♥♥
I dyed it about four months ago, I absolutely love it!😊 thank you!
I've heard that exercising can affect whether or not you get your period. Is this true, if so why?
Yes. I think it has something to do with body fat levels, as if a woman falls below a certain body fat or has too large a calorie deficit or something like that (different points for everyone - I lost mine at a BMI of 19!) the body shuts down certain functions.
Where have you been? How are you feeling xxx
Completely AWOL. Honestly, I fell into the fitness trap about a year ago when I thought I was 'fine' and 'recovered' but apparently not. I had to leave college etc. I'm now trying to get myself out of that hole! How about you anon? How are you?
If I'm hungry does that mean my body has used up all of the food inside me for energy?
Yes
Top self harm distractions?
Mine is playing the guitar :-) but things like reading, going for a walk, going to the gym (if you do NOT have an ED!), going to a nice coffee shop and getting stuck in to work or projects you've got to do. Anything that makes you happy - even if that's eating a bowl of ice cream and strawberries and watching your favourite film!
I think I'm developing social anxiety and I'm really worried about it. I'm too scared to use public transport, go out places or see my family. How can I tackle this issue before it gets way out of hand? I don't want to feel so anxious and upset about doing these things 😔
Go to the doctor!
Omg does anyone remember when everyone used to eat Danio yogurts? I'm suddenly really craving one but why the heck were they such a big "thing" like what was the craze? o.o
High protein content I'm assuming. They are actually pretty nice though!

i have an abusive parent (both emotionally and also pretty severely physically with beating me etc). They've just been diagnosed as terminally ill and likely be dead by the end of the year. Am I am awful person for feeling oddly relieved... I feel so guilty but I grew up feeling nothing but fear 😓
Not at all I would Feel the same in your situation.
Hey Lucy, how are you? 😘
I'm OK thanks! How are YOU?

Do normal people have pint parties? I feel like I need justification to enjoy ice cream 😞
I don't think they refer to it as a pint party! But probably. Some do and some don't!
Do you think the ed community has changed much over the past year or so?
Its obviously less cool because I'm not there!!
When can you class yourself as "recovered"?
For me, it was when I stopped thinking about food every second of the day and didn't lie in bed at night calculating my calories for the day!
Can you give me some dinner ideas please. I've just had a massive breakdown because I'm fed up of eating the same things again and again, and I really want to vary my diet more. I don't have a dietician so I can't just ask them.
I need to know more.

Is eating 1600-1700kcal a day for a sedentary 5'3" 19-year old girl enough? And 1800kcal for days I do exercise (2-3 times a week). I always feel full by the end of the day but feel restricted in food choices (ie no chocolate but fruit instead)
Depends on your weight. I'd say if you're at a healthy weight and you feel full that's fine! In terms of food choices, choose a day of the week (like Saturday!) and just fit a chocolate bar in somewhere within your calories.
I'm absolutely petrified of restricting my calories because I know it will mess up my metabolism and what not but it makes me feel like a massive fake. I'm just so scared that it will make me gain weight so I don't think I'll ever restrict my calories again. Does this mean I'm a fake 😰
Nope! As long as when you're at a healthy weight and recovered you're not shoving in food when you're not hungry just for the sake of it then you're all good! :-)
I've got a fear of salad because it's what I ate when I was at my lowest and it triggers me but I feel like such a fake because the option is there for me to have salad but I turn it down for a higher calorie option. Idk what to do to overcome this silly fear of mine??
I kinda had the same issue because I felt like I wanted to 'save' my calories for tasty food when I was ill so for a while I wouldn't eat fruit or salads or whatever, the best thing to do is just eat one if you feel like it. You'll eventually feel comfortable again! Besides, eating higher calorie options while recovering is not at all an issue! :-)
I've sent this to everyone I follow because I just want to let you know how much I love you! You're all so lovely, understanding and just beautiful human beings. I ask a lot of questions on here and you always offer the best advice. Thank you so much for everything you've done for me!
love you anon!
