FULL SUMMERS DAY OF EATING - badminton + BBQ - anorexia recovery

[@noemit2231]

I remember when you said that this time you will take recovery seriously and you’re actually going to do it. YOU ARE ACTUALLY DOING IT Elzani and I couldn’t be more happy about the progress you already made. You are blooming Elzani and I absolutely love to see how your personality comes out more and more in every video. thank you for sharing your recovery experience with us. ❤️ Wish you all the best for your future. You can do it! 💫

[@junelynch8988]

I love how happy your mum looks since you seriously started recovery, she loves you so much 😍😊👍🏻

[@l-jy2653]

You have so much life in you! Keep going and never give up! Hope your mam is doing better, she looks really well ! Xx

[@empoweringmindsets6667]

You should do a challenge video where you eat foods without making it look all perfect on a plate, and eat foods from the original packet!! By the way you are so inspiring and I make recovery videos too! So LETS KEEP SMASHING ANOREXIA 💖❤️💪🏼

You and your mum have such a nice relationship. I love seeing you both together. And I just want to say you look WONDERFUL! your skin looks like it's glowing, imo, and your eyes look so clear. I can tell your mum is so proud of you. So are we!! You've come a long way

Lol when you said ‘it looks like a poo’ about the kofta and your grandma brought the sass ‘thanks Elzani’ it cracked me up hahaha

Seeing your progress is so inspiring, you can see the life coming back to you with each video! I'm going to inpatient in a few days to help me get started on recovery, and you've been a huge part in me realizing that there's so much more to life than wasting it on something that can never actually make you happy ❤️

[@anyabrookes9074]

Elzaniiiiiiii you're seriously doing so well ahhhhh!! I can't even explain how much you inspire and motivate me to keep pushing myself in recovery...and it's been that way since the first video you posted. So just keep going girl because we all love you so much

Elzani, your videos are a godsend. I always watch them when it’s meal time and they’re long enough that I don’t have to watch 12 per meal, which is perfect. It makes meals so much easier to get through, so thank you so much 💛

[@_dani.m.c_]

I just scrolled down to your first video and it has just overwhelmed me with how far you've come. I love watching your videos and watching you become stronger and stronger everyday. You inspire me and I just want the best for you in life, you're such a pure and kind soul. Keep up the amazing work! :)

[@kyram1452]

thank you for just being.. you! your channel honestly encourages me to get better and become stronger everyday. so thank you! i’m able to enjoy life w/o worrying so much

[@jacintarene_]

Would be nice to see you eat couple meals without focusing on how nice it looks or the taste so much. Like just watch you eat a hearty meal because it’s normal, and not centered around it being a perfect meal, if that makes sense. I have this issue with wanting my meals to be ‘worth it’ and if it’s not worth it or I can’t watch a good show/video then I can’t eat it or I feel guilty that I’ve wasted a meal. I worry you might fall into that habit, with only eating meals that look good and setting them out. Like do you really need a plate for a brunch bar? It’s just kind of coming across as an obsession to have the best food ever and not eating because you should be... you’re doing so well but you should do a day where you just let your mum pick a simple hearty meal and let her serve it how ever she wants and you just eat it without making a fuss over how it looks and tastes...

[@soilgrasswaterair]

jacintalovesart it’s a process, and what you speak of will come, but to stress it isn’t really worth it because the focus right now should be what she is doing which is to allow herself to eat. Not sure why it is when people see progress they want to see basically healthy eating patterns to make themselves feel better about how someone else is eating in their recovery. She will do those things but psychologically is not there yet because she is still at the stage (not at the initial stage anymore) where she is still allowing herself to eat. Not sure if you remember the video she made about a year ago in which she spoke of how she had to start recovery for real his time or else she would die. Keep that in mind the next time you feel tempted to rush her or anyone else due to your own comfort level around how other people approach their narrative around food and how they plate it. Seriously, how the food is plated is the least of the dilemma at the moment and why you focus so much on it is something you should think about, what does it serve you personally to express this in hope of getting her to change? Because the reality is that it’s not for her sake it’s for you. Trust her capability of managing and that ger family is giving her support, and as a stranger, for any of us strangers it is not for us to act like we’re part of her recovery and get to have a say how it is done, because in recovery people don’t need a bunch of outsiders telling them what they should do based on what they want to see.

[@GracieLions]

I think she's just practicing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy on herself when she's eating, retraining her mind to think positively about what she's letting into her body. Let her go as slowly as she needs to....the point is she doing it. X

[@paxtonmcpherson]

its so great to see you eating lots of different fruits! I remember when they scared you. And it was also important for you to show the struggle after you at the rice pudding that you 'didn't really like'... I know you know it, but I just want to remind you that it's ok if not every meal or snack is amazing or divine, sometimes food is fuel and is just helping to facilitate your recovery. Id love to see you challenge yourself to eat double what your mum eats for a day

[@Hevzmarie]

I’m early and I’m SO SO excited to watch this Elzani, I know that you’re going to give me the motivation I really need right now! you’re AMAZING and you inspire me so so much, I just wish I could recover xxx

[@raspberrydream7329]

Well done lovely girl 😁 it’s so good to see you eating well and not panicking about being full up. And even having random mouthfuls of leftovers and ice cream - it’s just amazing. You are definitely starting to look healthier and I look forward to seeing you start to play sports again as you get 💪 stronger. Do keep your calorie intake up though - your lunches are super healthy, which is great and good portion size, but not really many calories 🤔 I don’t mean to tell you what to eat, but just SO SO want to see you beat this!!! Can’t wait for your Christmas vlogs ☃️ xxx

[@idabaaschbernsen953]

Elzani. If you ever regret a thing you ate or wish you've had something else, just go and take it! If you wished you had the other rice pudding, you should just eat it, even though you ate the other rice pudding. You are going to feel so much better, and it kicks the ed in the butt! Eat and do what YOU want, not what the stupid anorexia wants. And I just wants o tell you how far you made it in recovery. You are doing so well, and just keep going! Eat your life back😝

[@MrVicky3101]

You are doing so well. I am currently in recovery and you inspire me a lot to keep trying new things. That rice looks amazing. Is it just rice, corn, peas and soy sauce? I can not walk bacause I have trained too much and injured my body, so easy recipes like that is what I live of right now ;)

[@Ella-ps1lg]

Yes I had some ads. Clarence court eggs (in the uk) have amazing colour yolks!

[@someonetalkstea4835]

I'm in the USA so not familiar with Clarence eggs. Chickens raised on a farm, that are allowed grass, bugs, etc and live as a chicken should, have rich orange yolks though. Maybe Clarence feeds their chickens good things, and lots of sunshine in the chicken's life. Most store bought eggs here are very pale yellow. Farm eggs have so much flavor as well! If you ever get the chance to buy some from a farmer, please do!

Really enjoy your content :) that egg muffin looked so good, I started salivating. Have you ever tried quail eggs? They taste slightly richer than chicken eggs and are slightly higher in protein..I actually prefer them over chicken eggs now. Generally it takes around 4 quail eggs to equal a single chicken egg so it does take a few to get a good meal out of them but well worth it. :) Much love from Tasmania, Australia.

[@robynsophie4811]

[@saskiafinnan4216]

Robyn Sophie that’s because she’s anorexic so it will take a while for her to gain significant weight after her organs have replenished.

[@yoshima7654]

The yolk is SO red/orange? I can't tell. I thought it was a slice of cherry tomato or something and when you zoomed in I realised that it was the yolk...Wth does Clarence Court do with their chickens???

[@ohwellwhateverr]

It's to do with the hens' diets. Wheat and barley-based diets produce paler yolks, and cheap quality chicken feed used in factory farms produces the palest yellow yolks. Dark orange yolks come from orange pigments in plants called xanthophylls, and they get this being pasture-raised and given free range to forage themselves. Basically, the darker the yolk, the healthier the chicken (and therefore the healthier the egg). So the real question is, what is every other farm doing with their chickens...

[@shanasakaii796]
