You can let her know roughly what you want next time.. like one egg tofu, one left veg and one braised chix etc. It's some sort of preparation but abit of a challenge too :)

Haha yes I'm considering engin! But idk if it's the right course for me ? how did u decide on engin?

Which engin tho! Hmm for me because physics and maths have always been my stronger subjects! Also, biz was too general and I thought having a more specialized degree would be beneficial!

are u scared of fats? all 3 are impt! try to have more eg noodles, rice, all ur fav food etc! ice cream after is ok too

Yesssss in fact I fear fats more than carbs...... but I'm trying to conquer this fear! Fats are good women need fats especially right ?

babe do u know why u're so bloated it's also cause u r just having fruits and veg and all??

But that's not all too....... ????? But yeah that's most of my diet. Omg really ah ? Sigh so increase protein? Or carbs?

You take engineering in nus? How's it like!

Omg are you considering taking engin! Hahaha hmm It's extremely boring HAHAHA! But right, very little emphasis on class participation (which I like) and also the cohort is quite helpful (relative to let's say biz which I think ppl can be abit more competz)

How important is family support for you in recovery? In what way do you foresee treatment/recovery being different without it?

Haha well I was overseas for a while during ED and that was when it spiraled out of control. Basically without my family, I wouldn't even be doing recovery. They keep me in check and really push me on when times are hard. They're also a great source of motivation because I really hate how this is affecting them...... And sometimes it might seem like they're not understanding or supportive enough, but really they do care. We only have one family and no matter what, they will never give up on us yknow :')

Did your doctor set any target weight for you?

For now it's min healthy weight at BMI 18.5 but I guess ultimately it would be when I get my period!

before you developed an ED did you even care about what you ate? or did you just eat whatever without thinking twice about it?

Hahaha I have always been conscious of my weight since young, just that last time I loved food too much to care ?

yes! don't worry too much probably water weight + your metabolism will increase after eating more cos you've been restricting for so long so it has been messed up but after eating it will go back to normal or even be faster

It feels like I'll balloon if i eat more than I am now ? And a huge part of my ED is fear foods which sucks because I should be enjoying the eat-whatever-you-want-since-you-need-to-gain stage ???

I know you're trying but you're eating salads and veggies and that isn't really helpful for recovery!

But I'm pretty sure I'm gaining....... sigh on my small portions and salads ?

babe maybe you should try doing a pint party at night! like have ice cream and whatever you like for night snack

Pint party....... like, an entire pint? Myself? In one night??? ?

How did u lose the weight ? did u like nvr eat at all ??

Haha I don't really want to answer this because it'll do nobody any good

Your mum is so genuine and adorable to be happy to see you eat :) Jiayou!

Yeah! Really blessed ? She's so beautiful and her beauty can't be lost over the years :) Thanks for this!!!! Hehe so heart-warming to hear ❤️

Keep the positivity and faith and thankfulness and love and enjoyment of food and company going! xoxo

Thank you!!!! Hehe this made my day ☺️ Have a blessed awesome day too ??????

Were you inpatient before?

Nope! They asked me once but I didn't want to and they didn't insist either! They kept suggesting it tho!

When will you be considered as having fully recovered?

I'm sorry I don't have a proper answer because I'm not fully recovered myself ? But I would have to say when you are weight restored, period regular, free from food thoughts and negative ED thoughts!

Haha that's what I meant ? psychiatrist = doctor, psychologist = counsellor I guess.

Omg really??? I blur hehehe ???
