I’m sad :( 

Not gonna be a proper blog post tonight because I’ve not been feeling my best. I don’t want to go into it too much but an emptiness came back. The feeling of just being nothing, irrelevant, forgotten and not know what to do with yourself next. I’ll never understand why good people get treated so bad, so unfair. I’ll never ever understand why I’ve been hurt like this, why me and my issues couldn’t have been nurtured and protected like fine china or the flowers trying to hold on through autumn. When my heart is filled with nothing but love, kindness and honesty (and maybe sass).

Moving swiftly on because I’d rather not think about it before the next wave comes.

I actually couldn’t start my diet plan Tuesday! I completely forgot that I was planning to start this the day of my mums birthday and I was treating the family to a meal out. And no I didn’t forget my mums birthday I just didn’t think when I was planning, which day to start my diet on.

I did however eat my planned breakfast and lunch! I had never tried rye bread and I was pleasantly surprised. I don’t know how to explain the flavour but it is quite unique. The rye bread paired rather oddly with the cheese triangles but I did enjoy it!

For a snack I had one of my little prepared bags of candy floss grapes. I think they taste like candy floss at first but the taste quickly moves on to that of regular green grapes. My sister tried 2 and spat both out, which I was surprised by because I thought they tasted lovely. I gave her the second grape to try because I was certain she must have tried a rotten one the first time, but apparently not.

This is when I remembered we were going out for dinner…

We went to Toby Carvery and I stuffed myself with a plate of a mixture of meats, two Yorkshire puddings, stuffing & some of the lovely creamy potato dish they had.

We of course had to eat birthday cake didn’t we. So I had a slice of the Cadbury Flake cake.

I didn’t eat past 21:00 which is a miracle for me and I worked out that I surprisingly only went over the amount of calories I would have preferred to consume by around 200. I was shocked at this because I felt like I ate so much and I could have easily consumed so many more calories. I haven’t set myself a specific total caloric intake but I need to make sure I’m in a calorie deficit, so I’m hoping to stay 1,400 or under which I should be for the rest of the week.

I’ve taken my tablets for tonight and I’m hoping to head straight to sleep. One can dream. x

It stings 

It stings but it’s my life
My body is my canvas and I want to etch every minor detail
I want to outline every vein
Soothe every nerve
Heal every pain

My body is my temple
I want to splatter the walls with paint and cover every inch in delicate designs
I need to relate to every piece
Feel every line

My body is my soul
What’s damaged I must damage
I must make it my own
I have to feel warmth
Create my own home

My body is a burden I don’t have to carry
I’ll apply pressure to my despair
I can make patterns in my hell
And I’ll love every minute of it

I can trace my cries

I can trace my life
