I saw a documentary on Netflix fat sick and nearly dead The titles describe movies but are also about juicing
I thought I would write about my food challenges
when a had my depression a Called it by name is was a: Rulle kake Depression
or "Swiss roll" the cake comes from central Europe. around 1900
was popular in Norway 1950-1990. very good super fast to make almost like a sponge cake
anyway.
I have always been a thin man, but a got s small stomach (beer belly or Swiss Roll belly)
I had a depression for many years had different solutions to tackle my feelings over the years but the one a always fell back on is the Swiss Rull cake.
So back in 2014 a normal day for me was go to work 8am.
then so stress and angry and sad a good mix whit all of them.
so did not eat any food before going home then 7 pm
going to the store on the way home, but a was worn down so did not know where I was. so a just got a swiss cake or something like it. eat all of it alone the next day and do the same.
a think food and mental health go hand in hand its the same as drugs and other destructive self-medication addictions.
semlor Swedish wheat buns with marzipan content
not relevant but lacking a picture. btw this is very good one if u can find one its "fastelaven"
7 weeks before Easter in most of Scandinavia Norway has a bit more boring one.. anyway.
am not depressed longer. but am still comfort eating
when something "old feelings or just a day bad"
a going back to eating a lot of wrong food here in canada a like one box of orios or
7 leaf of bread whit Peanut butter and jams.
but if a had a god bike ride or a good day am making good food.
when a was depressed there was no way out. I remember at work my colleagues start comment on my stomach
it was like getting hit me in the face its not like a was not aware that I gain weight.
I see eating as a form of self harm. its just it's slower way of doing it.
I expect that most people realize that many people do not choose to over eating. It is true that there is a choice but it is in the same category as stop and smoke or drugs. its super hard.
making good food it super hard when u are hate yourself.
and if u live a alone nobody is there to stop you.
Kvæfjord Cake voted Norway's best cake
In my journey I have been 1000 times better then 2 years ago.
but this one is a hard one to stop. last year back in norway a did a lot of good work I lost weight.
I had a deal to not eat sugar when I was home but a could eat something at work.
I had a list of what I ate. if a i ate something wrong
It was a very hard job. but a managed it for about 6 months
a did easy off whit the shame part. am bean doing vegetable smoothie every day fore 1 year or "almost"
am pre making them in bags frozen.
if u dont like pulp in the smoothie this is not fore u.
am a barke atm but a hope when stuff is settling down here more a can go back to my shame list. lol. a Ned the rest of my life to work before a can do it 100%.
my smoothie I have tried many combinations. this one the best I think
I make about 10-12 stk
about 200-250 grams
zipper lock bags is the best
About 1 kg of carrots
3 oranges or 1 mango
1 broccoli
200-300 grams of pea
ca 500 grams of spinach
3 bananas
100-200 grams blueberry
a small ginger just a small snippet like half cm brick
cut the carrots small and. put about the same amount in each bag and freezer it
take one out to put 2-3 dl apple juice
'I have found that a handblender is the best.
ready for freezing
this is one of the best way to get some green in u without a lot of work.
