Being selfish is the nature of the illness. *It's not really YOU! And the people around you know this! *Also, yes please do vent in this journal-that's what it's for! *And do NOT take it out on yourself! *That's the last thing you should do!

Great PB on the 5k btw! *I bet that felt good! *Now, you want to feel like this more often? *Well, there's the incentive right there to beat this ED! x

a) couldn't find the cheese you mentioned. Where did you get it by the way?
b) that pizza looks awesome Cheese and base for that one? Also have no idea how you get the cheese to melt and look like that, looks great.

Mate? Should have had some. It looks great!
I'm sure it wouldn't have hurt. You did 2 sessions today, so lots of calories burned.*

You should vent when you need to know. Its a*healthy*thing to do since you are allowing yourself to be aware of how you feel and not just*suppress*it. You will achieve all your goals in due time *:-D And awesome workouts. Hope your calf won't be sore anymore. Keep up with all your hard work, it will pay off!!! :-D*

[riaden]

Almost a rest day today, just icing my calf, starting to get abit anxitey from not running, but im dealing with it. this is a good test for me to try and keep my foods the same, while not running, or buring as much engery, but im putting this week off, and trying to think of it as a well ernt rest week. hopefully i can just stay sane.

[tofastforyou]

Mate, can you give me a few reasons as to why you might have a sore calf?
Maybe you should just try running 6 times a week with one rest day, and if you want to double up, do some crosstraining, i.e. spin bike sessions, skipping or weight lifting (deadlifts,squats).
just a suggestion to prevent you getting more injurys.

[aggiemona]

It is nice to see it as a rest week, *way to keep positive. And great job with keeping up with the healthy eating :-D*
