205.8 today

Low # verified by 2nd day weigh in.

It's not a fluke. This is real.

I haven't weighed this since I was 18, a freshman in college. Like 25 years ago.

After all the weird ideas going thru my head this week, it is great to see a low number. Man, my head tried to fuck me up.

some thoughts on imposter syndrome

i just started a new software engineering job last week and today i talked with my manager on dealing with imposter syndrome.

Common feelings:

i don't know what i don't know to ask questions

feeling useless and not really helping the team

i could contribute to the team's work if i knew how to contribute

Manager's thoughts:

sometimes you just have to sit with it!

soon you'll be busy enough you forget about all of these feelings

i am not expected to be doing anything but reading documents and learning and experimenting so don't be upset

so much information is out there, so take in what you can and you can learn as you go but don't feel rushed to learn everything at once

your job is to learn so don't feel guilty about just learning and not contributing.. once this feeling impedes you from working and learning, then that's a problem

this feeling will pass and it'll be okay

Full Time

Full Time being 40 hours is to damn much. It need to be shorter. I’m talking 32 to 36 MAX!!

Work, Depression, and an ED

Yeah... for those who know, KNOW what the work life is about. Especially when dealing with an eating disorder. I’m currently working fulltime and the changes in my ed can be hard to deal with.

Now, I can’t speak for those who have been dealing with the dynamic of an ed and fulltime time work. However, I do have a glimpse into the lifestyle.

Having an eating disorder when you work long draining hours back to back becomes harder to manage overtime, sometimes without you even noticing it. 

You come home, eat, sleep, work, and do it all again. Where does the time for meal prep come in? Where does the time for going grocery shopping for affordable food FOR the meal prep come in? Even more so, where is the time to to make the meal prep if you don’t like eating the same thing over and over again? (This is something I learned called “analysis paralysis.” Maybe I’ll make a separate post about it another week.) 

Next thing you know, it’s been a month or two since you’ve put effort into your ed recovery. 

All of these factors, and more, play into managing an eating disorder WHILE working a fulltime job. Even moreso when one has a labor intensive job!

My heart goes out to those unacknowledged in such a niche struggle. I sympathize with how difficult it must be to maintain recovery while juggling other factors in your life. Please remember you are not alone and this is a safe space to express eating disorder struggles <3

my new poster for the 30th Anniversary of Myst, available over at the Cyan store (link in the source and the comments)! This imagery has been indelibly inscribed on the inside of my eyelids since I was a kid, so it was an absolute joy bringing it to life in a more official capacity. 📚

I'm gonna start using this as a place to put my thoughts and feelings down since I doubt no one sees this.

I've been working at a job for over 7 years now and I'm starting a new position next Monday. Well, new as in transitioning from a different position. I've had the position before, but for far less pay. I'm going back because now I'll get a significant raise.

My position is fairly easy, but physically demanding. That doesn't bother me. What bothers me is the job I left would've been dope to stay in, but nothing was going on the right direction due to forces out of my control.

My projects were redundant and made no sense. There was a teammate that was clearly not pulling her weight compared to everyone else. My immediate supervisor wasn't doing anything about it, because he didn't see the implications that I was seeing and that i have expressed to him. If that is the base level of employee he is willing to hire, simply because we get our projects done without her help it's fine, in not okay with that. She is getting paid just under my own wage and she just started last year due to wage adjustments.

TL;DR

Going back to a previous position for pay raise and want being valued anymore in previous position.

Full Time Hours

Okay I just have to squeal about this!

Next week will be my LAST WEEK of full time hours!!

I’m so excited. I keep DMing my colleague (since she’s also part time, and incidentally enough, quietly let me know there even WAS a part time vacancy when it popped up through the company site. This was back in late October.

I submitted my application about 48 hours later, and boss called me down for a quick chat the following week. The interview didn’t happen for two weeks, then two weeks later he called me down to tell me the verdict. This was in late November.

I have so, so many plans, and I’m hoping to actually have way more time for all the games I want to enjoy, plus I’ll be able to assist with keeping our apartment more tidy instead of looking at the gross stovetop and mentally tucking it away for later when I have a moment to breathe.

I’m a little worried about how my parents will react but that’s for another post.

4/17/23

So far.... 24 oz water x 2, ACV shot, large cup of lemon water.

Woke up and mom was having an low oxygen episode.

I called in late to work and am sitting with her watching TV until she recovers.

The hardest part of caregiving is focusing on me while focusing on someone else is that I feel like someone always loses and someone always wins. It is hard to focus on 2 things at once.

Hard to deal with everything but I am trying. I tried to relax as much as I can this weekend. I spent time with people I love and care about. 💗

I was really stressed out last week and that makes it hard not to over consume food.

But I have my coach and we are working in things. Focusing on whole foods, drinking water, and working in daily habits for success. Walking daily, cardio as often as I can, and strength classes at least 2-3 x a week at work.

My coach reminded me that my mom would never want me to be harming myself because of her health.

And he is right. She wouldn't. She always wants the best for me. She lets me live here rent free and pays all the bills so I can catch up from my travesty of a marriage. She is supportive of me going to school and doing all the work things.

Working on creating better pathways for stress management.

Some meals:
