I'd like a tasty toastie, Filled with scalding hot cheese, The sort of food that burns your mouth, Yet somehow continues to please.

I'd like a tasty toastie, Filled with scalding hot cheese, The sort of food that burns your mouth, Yet somehow continues to please.

We’ve all got a wee guy sitting on our shoulder. Her wee guy tells her to have another glass of wine! have another glass of wine! one more glass of wine! To help you relax! (She has to get up for work at 6am tomorrow morning.) (Her office is a 25 mile drive from her home.) Your wee guy tells you to just take off the ****** She’s on the pill and it’ll feel better for both of you! You can’t remember when you were last tested for STDs and you’re so drunk that you can’t even remember her name. The wee guy on my shoulder sits with his legs crossed, slit-eyed, and instructs: “If you’re going to have a Brie toastie for lunch, you must use low calorie bread. Less than 70kcal per slice. No butter. No jam. No pesto. No spread. You don’t deserve to taste.” The ‘opportunity cost’ of tasty cheese is bread like cardboard: brittle like my bones and dry like my hair and lacking. Which is exactly how I feel about myself sometimes. I used to turn my head towards him and say: “okay, pal, I’ll do exactly as you say!” Today I said I should put pesto on my Brie toastie I have a bit of weight still to restore and I really like pesto! I like myself sometimes. So I had a Brie and pesto toastie for lunch and moved on with my day.

I’m writing an essay on purging variables. It involves some fieldwork: today I’m going try porridge. Yesterday I tried soup and cucumber slices. Hypothesis: If I use a 2:1 fluid to oats ratio, it’ll be so ******* easy that it will barely qualify as self-induced regurgitation! Result: self-hatred, an electrolyte imbalance, a ******* sore throat and two hours of my life that I will never get back. (Once, I really wanted to purge an ice cream cone. Instead I was staring back at bits of a cheese toastie and salad, which I’d had before the cone. ***** sake. Bodies are weird! Or maybe the data I’ve been gathering on this pro-ana forum is unreliable? Citation needed.) I’ve got a presentation tomorrow on calorie deficits. If you want to have 35g porridge oats and 45g banana for breakfast then you must make it with 120ml water and 80ml almond milk! Or you could skip the banana entirely and Have 45g oats with a drizzle of honey. It’s as simple as that! This or that— If P then Q A scientific practicality! A logical fallacy eroding my sanity.
