Hmm.
A friend who I've not seen in a while last night asked whether it was "hard to keep your weight up due to your dietary restrictions?". I almost laughed out loud - keep my weight up?? I mean, yes, my weight is pretty much at its lowest since I gave up gluten. But it's intentional. Still, noticeable perhaps, a good sign I think.
So I made cupcakes last night for my class today. Ate 5 of them spread out through the day - lucky for me, they only had 135 cals. So porridge (100), melon (100), rice krispie bar (150), cucumber with some houmous (100) and a couple of rye bread with PB (200). Pub lunch was 3/4 of a jacket potato with chilli con carne (not sure, maybe 150 + 200). 1700 ish, which is higher than my aim dammit! I walked a lot today though and the socialising was important for class I guess. It could have been much much worse, thank God I don't drink.
I don't really understand - the skinniest girl in the class (who admittedly used to be a ballet dancer) ate a panini with melted cheese and drank a few glasses of wine, a vodka diet coke and a Magners cider. I do wonder if that's all she'll eat today, or if she purges or if she just naturally has a really high metabolism? She's much smaller than I CAN be naturally, her hips are tiny tiny tiny.
We are planning more socials, but I reckon if I fast on the days when we're eating out, and then keep drinking diet Coke (LOVE IT) on nights out, then I can get through it. *sigh* why am I so weak willed/social?? Skinny Love - I think your plan is right, the guilt makes us work it off though. I'm sorry for mentioning houmous (but I did have a pot and wanted due to the other night!), and making you crave it so, I hope you can forgive me.
If I have a sub-1200 day tomorrow, things should balance out. I'm still annoyed with myself though. Get me to the gym soon.

Sounds like you are generally doing very well!! :) I'm glad for you :D
Don't you envy people with tiny hips? Don't you just despise them? I can't help it, but I do... I feel like hips are the make-or-break sometimes... like, if I had smaller hips, I WOULD be tiny. I am pretty small, EXCEPT for my hips and they KILL me.
Genes. Ugh. I fight with them all the time, haha.
I want some of your cupcakes... Mail them??? :P Haha. I saw the pictures of your other ones-- with the green and blue icing-- and OMG. Seriously... YUM. :)
Oh, and PS, about the comment your friend made about having a difficult time keeping your weight up-- totally be proud of that!!! :P I'd eat it up, haha. That's awesome!! Obviously, your friend has noticed your weight loss :D YAAAYY!!
You rock. Keep it up-- strength :*
i often wonder when i see naturally small people/people thinner than me if they struggle with their weight. i think the answer is no... i don't think the average (thin)person struggles/tries. in bloggerland because we seek out others like ourselves it may seem normal (ED thinking/behaviour) but i don't think most people really think/try. maybe i'm just deluded lol. i go by my sis and some friends who are tiny and don't think about weight at all.
135 calorie cupcakes? Pass on the recipe, girl!
