so i make $8/hr and move around a lot at my job. nothing extremely difficult, but i’m always on my feet unless i’m counting money, or doing paperwork that needs to be done, etc etc. that’s management at a food service job for you.
so yeah, i can’t really afford to eat three meals a day, at least sometimes. today my food was a 99¢ bowl of shrimp noodles. yesterday it was mcdonald’s dollar menu fries & cheeseburger. these are fucking terrible for me, but it’s what i can do right now.
so yeah, eating like 500 calories a day has made me lose weight. or at least, i think so, as i don’t own a scale and it’s not like i can afford to buy one. but i feel slimmer. i’m still clearly overweight, but i think i look slimmer. maybe it’s just my stomach being empty. who knows.
i hate to say it, but i’m kind of okay with being forced to eat so little. i know it’s awful and i shouldn’t feel that way. but i don’t feel bad; honestly, i feel great, save for hunger pains.
it’s just that overeating has always been a problem for me, ever since my parents separated as a little kid and i started using it to cope. last i checked, i’m 5’3.5 and almost 180lbs. i think i might be a little less now, probably. i’m okay with it. i feel like being broke as shit is what’s helping me break my cycle of eating so much. i’m kind of grateful for it.
sorry if this is rambly or doesn’t make sense. i just kinda wanted to talk about this.
