Jada Petsch's Journal, 06 July 2011

Up. Ugh. More than likely water weight. TOM is due anytime in the next week, so it makes sense. >.< Just hate to see the scale moving upwards.

Had turkey cutlets last night and marinaded then cooked them in White wine, a little low sodium chicken broth, butter, Handful of fresh minced onion, a very large clove of garlic, chives, and a sprinkle of other seasonings from my cabinet. Once the cutlets were done, I reduced the sauce, grated in a little Romano cheese, and it turned out pretty good. My hubby love it! ^.^ I added a little over my turkey. Also had 1/4 cup of wild rice, 1/2 cup of green beans, a mini ear of corn, and 35g of a French Baguette that I toasted. Quite delicious.

One of my friends I might have mentioned is going through a rough time with her husband/maybe soon to be ex-husband. And she's not eating. Says that even looking at food just makes her feel ill. And I'm really worried about her. She's lost 10lbs in the last week. :( And she's happy about the weight loss, but I know it's not good for her. I keep telling her she needs to eat and giving her snacks and since she's sometimes over for lunch, making tasty stuff to tempt her. But she's not budging. If anyone has went through something like this either themselves or with friends, I'd really appreciate some advice.

I went through this about 2 years ago with a really good friend of mine and it was tough. She lost close to 50 pounds before things got figured out (she eventually gained it all back because once she started eating it was the same way as before). All I found was to sit and listen to her when she needed me, I continually made good food for her and kept sending it home with her when she left, and I always tried to make her eat pretty much anything from fruit to ice cream - I figured a little bit of bad was a whole lot better than nothing. Sorry to hear she is going through a rough time, I really hope things straighten out for her soon, but she does need to eat or she will end up in the hospital. Does she have kids? If she has kids maybe point out that not only are her kids seeing this (they are even if they don't act like it) but she is putting her self at risk of ending up in the hosptial and leaving them home. I hate seeing anyone hurt like that.

I was also thinking about the kids angle like Pixi pointed out. She needs to stay healthy for them (if she has any). Going through a situation like this requires you to be at the top of your game with a clear head. Hopefully she can realize that shortly and get herself together. Keep being the good friend you are, encourage and support her.

Thank you. I did make lunch, and she ate some, but only about 150ish calories or so. She also ate 1/2 the fiber bar (80 cals) I gave her when she dropped her daughter off before heading out to class. I'm going to help her as best I can and hope she gets everything sorted out soon. :(

Well its a start.. Just keep trying and maybe eating those bits that she is eating will make her realize how hungry is and eventually she will start eating more. It is tough to watch a friend go down that road and know you can't just make it go away.. keep doing what your doing!
