Breakfast: Cottage cheese and mixed greens frittata
This has been my favorite high protein breakfast lately. It keeps me full all day, I get lots of greens in with out eating a huge salad and it could also be portioned through out the day :)
3 eggs
½ cup 4% cottage cheese
126g mixed greens
¾ tbsp butter
Salt/pepper to taste
Pinch of nutmeg and garlic powder
Preheat oven or toaster to 400. Whip eggs thoroughly, add cottage cheese and seasonings and mix. In a skillet, cook salad greens until wilted, remove and set aside. Add butter to heat-proof skillet coat thoroughly using pastry brush. Pour egg mixture into hot skillet, place greens on top, and place in hit oven or toaster oven! Ready when no longer jiggy!

I don’t have a sweet tooth but my biggest weakness is chips and dip :/ I try to have some through out the week so i don’t binge on a huge bag bc they r my one true comfort food.
10 tortilla chips and ¼ cup refried beans
210 cal
Dinner: Avocado and meat ball salad
100g lean meatball mixture
125g chopped romaine lettuce
¼ avocado
¼ cup 4% cottage cheese
½ lime, juiced
2 tbsp red onion
Salt/pepper to taste
I make four small meat balls and pop them in the air fryer on 350 for 10 min to cook to render out some fat. Then, dice the onion finely, mash the avocado and mix with cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and lime. Kinda weird, I know, but it makes a creamy dressing and adds extra protein w/o making it super unhealthy. Toss dressing romaine and top with meat balls! Enjoy :)

I want to be more active on here but i kind of feel like I’m talking to an empty room sometimes so I forget. I wasn’t restricting for a few weeks and my weight kind of stabilized around 160 but I don’t like how it feels. I can feel fat where I didn’t have it before. I don’t really recognize my body as my own and it’s really dyshoric. I don’t hate how I look and my body is healthy but like? It feels at odds w how I feel abt my gender. Like I see a healthy dude but I don’t like the idea of being like a burly man iykwim lmfao. Same way I feel about chest hair. Like, it’s fine and I don’t hate it but it I feel more myself with out it. Non binary things

Today was nice, I’ve been pretty good since the 28th of December. Before then I was just eating whatever and i gained little weight, unfortunately :/ I’ve been working out a little bit every day and it is keeping me on track. Even light work outs are helpful so I don’t feel like a failure. With my ED in the past the most difficult thing to deal with is my all or nothing mentality. Like, if I don’t work out one day I may as not well work out for a month OR if I ate one unhealthy thing I may as well eat the rest. So doing small work outs and having at least ONE healthy meal a day reminds me to stay on track and not catastrophize for making small mistakes.
I rode my bike for about 45 minutes through out the day, 5-10 minutes of jumping jacks and I also played just dance for a bit :) I probably burned about 700 calories from working out. Also trying to stand more so I burn more calories.

1 piece of brioche
Half of a buttered bagel
1 chocolate cupcake
1 slice veggie pizza
1 slice pepperoni pizza
Yday was a big family event so I ate a non sus amount to make sure no one made comments. I got a lot of compliments on my outfit which I think is just code for I lost some weight bc they’ve seen this outfit before lmfao. They didn’t notice bc i don’t see them often but, I gained some weight back bc I honestly forgot I was restricting for a few weeks bc I became hyper-fixated on sewing and making clothes (Thanks ADHD) and my ED took the back seat for a bit lmfao.
Wearing a mask all day feels like a constant reminder not to eat. I going to try to work out more this week. Everything feels so pointless lately and the election really has me so fucked up. It’s so nice enjoying pizza sometimes and forgetting that we’re spiraling toward a fascist techno-autocracy
I forgot to log yday :( but here’s a rundown

My intake was a little higher yday I was under 1000 for ten days. I definitely feel hungrier when I eat more lmao which is so weird. But my body has gotten used to eating less pretty quickly. Hope fully it lasts and I’m not having crazy cravings in a few days :| but I think treating myself every few days is rly helpful in maintaining focus. One day of a few bits of comfort food every few days isn’t going to stop my progress overall. I do feel kinda guilty tho :| I wish I didn’t but I do.

I did a bunch of push ups, legs work outs, and finished off w intense cardio for 20 min. I live in a basement so I can’t only do so much bc the ceiling is apt 4 inches above my head lol
I thought I’d add some protein powder bc I think was getting light headed and hungry at night from not having enough protein in my diet. So far so good. I’ve been under 1000 daily cal for a week now n so far I feel good! Watching Korean diet vlogs has been so so so helpful lol bc american diet videos are…depressing lmao. I love how they include stuff they love along w low cal recipes so it never seems too too extreme. And they show their real portions which tend to be quite small. I can only eat so many salads and smoothies b4 I have a mental break lmao

I weighed myself and noticed i’m 158 which is wild but I’ll keep going. My goal is still 155 by the end of the month but if I lose a little more I won’t complain. I feel like I look the same as I did when I was 174 a few months ago which is…annoying lol. I lost 15 pounds and I look the same :| I probably won’t notice too much until I’m around 150

HEALTH GOTH 2020.
I always want to burn everything down and start from the ground up when I feel like I’ve “failed” at something.
We aren’t going to count Health Goth as a failure, but I would like to stop ebbing and flowing between things and stick with this again, like I did in the summer.
Where I am- it’s cold. Like lots of heavy snowfall, colder than the surface of Mars cold. We have BRUTAL winters, it truly is the boreal wastelands, the frigid tundra.
It makes your moods do backflips. The highs of good days can feel so good and the lows of bad days can feel so so bad. The lows last longer too. They linger, like the cold does in the depths of your spine.
All that being said, I am ready to get back on track, ready to feel better again, ready to reclaim Health Goth.
So for everyone who stuck around, forgetting they were following this blog- Hi! I’m back. And for anyone who is just joining my journey- Welcome.
Let’s feel better, together.
⚔️
I’m back!
It’s been a few weeks, and I’ve fallen off the wagon (again, big surprise!) but here I am, worming my way back to feeling less like shit- or at least that’s the goal.
I have been eating pretty well. It hasn’t been all fried chicken and fast food - there has been a lot of bubble tea though. That’s my weakness right now, bubble tea .
I’ve been packing lunches that have been healthy, lots of veggies and hummus, but now I’m going to put my attention back into this blog.
Today I’m boiling a chicken carcass to make chicken soup for the week. I have a vegetable mix that I’m going to add, if I remember I will take more progress photos.
Work lunch of cucumbers, strawberries, rice crackers, banana, cheese, olives, and leftover farmer sausage.
Featuring my critters hopping around as I try to take my photos they were too cute to crop out!
I’ve been physically ill for the past week but I feel like I may be starting to feel a bit better, slowly but surely. Today I am apprenticing so hopefully everything goes well!
