I got so busy today that i forgot to eat dinner and now it's too late, too close to bedtime. I don't feel hungry tho. I was so into my projects. I'm selling my digital piano on Kijiji. It's the first time i've sold something there.

I arranged to have a burly young man present while i make the transaction out in the hallway, armed with pepper spray, with the door of my condo locked. I'll give him $5, he'll probably help us carry the equipment out. So that's happening tomorrow at 11:00am.

Boy, they sure act fast on Kijiji. No sooner had i posted the ad than i got a contact in minutes. Four more contacts followed over the next two hours. Wow, what a great response!

I also snagged and edited ten images of floral abstracts and one of dog-playing-poker (for laughs) to blow-up on a color photocopier in this method that enlarges it over several pages which then have to be cropped and assembled, the results being a giant image with a lot of impact.

I learned the technique at work when i was a graphic artist's assistant while someone was on medical leave. I perfected it using the tools i bought for an aborted attempt at quilting as i just don't have enough room for quilting.

So, not too happy about the amount of Coke Zero i drank today. I was so amped up i drank several cans. I didn't slow down for tea or milk. I forgot about water, which would have been far superior. Oh, well, old habits die hard. I'll do better tomorrow.

Hugs to all!

Ta!

Jane.

I gave away canning lids today, per a request on NextDoor.

Yeah not eating is not good. I did order out yesterday, a salad and a sammich, after too light a breakfast i was thrown off my game. Gave me a bit of heartburn and a general feeling of malaise for the rest of the evening. I missed my pure food! Back to it today.

Hi Unaluna and all:

Sorry you had heartburn. The digestive system is so sensitive! Seems we both fell off our diets the same day! But that's okay because bouncing back is a valuable skill to develop too. Everyday can't be perfect! Progress not perfection! We're doing great!

I'm up after sleeping just 3.5 hours. I'm getting wicked insomnia. I'm on a benzo taper (withdrawal from a bipolar med) and i'm going to have to slow it down. I'm at 40% of the original dose so i'm doing well but i can't afford to run on so little sleep or i'll run myself into the ground! I'll stay the course for a second week (usually cut weekly) and hopefully my sleep will normalize.

I feel wired but not too tired, just aware of some sleep deprivation symptoms (eyes super sensitive to light, having to have people repeat themselves, forgetting about a dentist appointment [i almost never forget about appointments but i guess it was more of a MIX-UP as i heard the 17th but i guess she said the 7th, but i should have known from their confirmation text, should have realized the mix-up, but with my dog being in at the vet twice this week and caring for her and feeling such anxiety about her i guess i overlooked it, well that's okay, I LOVE A GOOD MIX-UP {!!!} and they weren't mad about it and it'll go on my next credit card cycle this way which is better financially], etc.).

Ta!

Jane.

Here are the four of the floral abstract images plus a joke one i snagged off The Net to make giant posters of. Aren't they pretty? Isn't dogs-playing-poker funny? Which one is your favorite?

Ta!

Hi Unaluna and all:

Glad you like my images! I liked your Kessler's Cat with Purple Ball. His dog-and-sheep is adorable!

Another early day. I've been up since yesterday at 11:30pm. I only slept for 3.5 hours but i don't sleep much in the Spring. I also don't feel too hungry in the Spring. I had a mac-and-cheese at 3:00am but no veggies. Sigh! I'm not doing very well with my nutrition. Just too excited to eat properly. Hoping to make my first Kijiji sale today at 11:00am. A digital piano. It'll be a cool $100 to put towards my outrageous vet bill. So excited!

Ta!

Jane.

I've been eating a ridiculous amount of sweets lately and feel like I just can't stop myself. I was never formally diagnosed with an eating disorder but I'm beginning to think I have a problem.

Was binge eating for years - the last year and a half being multiple times most days. I decided to stop Nov. 21st. I've only had a few slip ups. Today is day 14 (longest streak) of no binging. It was getting easier. But today I had some stress and I am REALLY wanting to binge. I'm looking at resources on why we binge and how not to. including some Katie Papo videos - her idea of not having the restrictive mindset while learning to eat peacefully and mindfully has been working up to today. Right now it is a full blown URGE. All the fast heart rate, and chest pressure. Urgency of the mind. The works. I'm writing this as therapy to resist.

I ate too much pizza. But I also do not eat much of anything else when I eat pizza. I still feel full.

Made it through Day 15. (Today is day 16, and the beginning of a healthier New Year I hope. Did eat A LOT of cabbage salad to counter being sick. But under the caloric daily limit. I eat when I'm sick. Some people can't. Lucky them. HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! <3

the only reason I've not been eating (and this is tragic) is that my trash is full and I can't be asked to empty it.
