tohma2004A beautiful day and I spent most of it inside. Why? Because we went grocery shopping and went to dinner..and I had to work..and all of that took away those wonderful daylight hours.
It was warm, sunny, a nice breeze..I did sit outside for about 15 minutes and i did clean the stalls so I got to enjoy it a little.
Grocery shopping isn't much fun. But I do get to pick out whatever I want and stick it in the basket. Mostly because my parents think I am too thin and so they figure if I put food in the basket then I will eat it and get fat.
My father thinks I'm too boney and need to eat more. He says so everyday. My mother just tries to feed me. I don't see myself as too thin but when even my "thin" pants fall off of me I start to wonder if maybe what they say is true. I don't see myself as thin but I guess what matters is how others see you...wait..that doesn't sound right.
I do feel weaker then I used to. I was playing with Dudley and he had me beat in about five minutes. He jumped up on me the other day and I joked that he was heavier then i was and my father said it was probably true.
Its not that I don't eat. I just had 4 pieces of pizza and 4 breadsticks for dinner today. I ate an entire 10 inch pizza for lunch the other day. I constantly snack on brownies, ice cream, chips, and anything else I can get my hands on during the day. At night I eat starburst while sitting at the computer.
My mother constantly tries to push more food at me. its wierd because they never used to make sure I ate, they just always knew it happened. I used to be known as the "Garbage disposal" eating anything and everything put in front of me. I haven't changed but now I feel like they are almost making me eat more.
Its just kinda wierd to me. I've never considered myself thin and the world makes it seem like there is no such thing as being too thin. I'm still probably about 130 pounds...We don't have a scale so I can really tell you. In november the doctor said I weighed 136 and I've lost weight since then. This is probably the lowest I have been since high school...but I still don't see myself as being too thin. I guess when you look at the rest of my family, maybe I am o_o.

Date: 2008-03-28 01:09 pm (UTC)I started out the same way: eating everything in sight but dropping pounds by the week. You should find some way to weigh yourself, just to be sure you're not dropping too much weight.
130 is healthy and no reason to worry. But eat healthy and keep an eye on things. ::hugs::
