It was reduced from €75
To €30
They didn't have a size small left
So I tried on extra small
And it fit perfectly
The thing is though
I don't know how long it will fit me for
As my weight fluctuates so much
It really yo-yo's up and down at an alarming rate
For this reason
I have clothes in every size known to woman
From size zero to size twelve
I don't like to buy too many items when my weight is low
As I don't hope to be at that weight for very long
But still
I do need to wear clothes when I'm at that size
Anyway
Here it is....
Aww Rubs, please please be careful, you're getting so super skinny (although still super beautiful). I've nominated you for an award if you look at my last blog post. Have a great day hun xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Hun
DeleteI just checked your blog
Yes
I think I look a bit miserable and scrawny in this photo
I need a bit of meat on my bones for sure x
Anybody here suffering with bulimia I want to give you what helped me overcome this.

Dear, dear Ruby, you look really ill and unhappy (this is not an insult, but i think it is wrong to reinforce your weightloss and you do not seem happy or healthy in this picture, although you are very pretty as always), please get all the help you can get! happy new year and all the best, i firmly believe that you will get better again. this is an awful time, especially christmas and the dull winter weeks after. all the best, i believe you are already on your way to get better, you are no longer ignoring it and made the necessary appointments. please do get better!
ReplyDeleteHey Julia,
DeleteI'm just hoping and praying I can get back on track again
I have the support
From my family and the professionals
And of course my lovely friends here on blogger
And you are right
I don't look happy
And I definitely don't feel happy
I will bounce back though
And come back stronger than ever x
xxxxx
DeleteI believe in you, lovely Ruby!
Thank you Julia x
DeleteRuby dear, you *can* get better. You are strong and smart. We all have faith in you and I pray that you regain faith in yourself.
ReplyDeleteThis picture is not healthy and I believe you sharing it is the healthy part of you screaming to be heard.
Love and hugs,
JJ
Thanks JJ
DeleteI appreciate your kind words
I actually just got a call from Mary
And I'm seeing her tomorrow
So that is great
As ever
She is on the ball
I'm going to turn this around x
You are looking gaunt, m'lady. It's a dramatic change from all the photos a few months ago when you looked so rosy-cheeked and full of life. It's good you're reaching out to people for help. You've come back from the ED before, you can do it again.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the clothes buying, I won't buy clothes in small sizes even if my current wardrobe is baggy. It's the same as knowing my weight--if I know I'm down to a 0, all I'll want to do is get down to a 00, then down to a children's size 10........
Focus on living. The ED will strip every last bit of your life away. It's the thought of life that keeps me going--I want to spend time my friends and family, I want to one day get married and maybe have kids, I want to keep playing music and making art and everything else the ED never let me even think about doing. Don't let the bastard hold you back. <3
It is a big change
DeleteYou are right Mich
I don't look well
And I don't want to look not well
I need to make some fundamental changes in my life
I don't have a life at the moment
I don't do anything
I need to revamp my whole life I think x
Beautiful dress, beautiful woman. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteWe all have slips, I've had too many to admit too. It's getting back on your feet that counts, which we all know you will. In your own time with your own choices to make. The mind is an incredible organ, it needs constant up keep.
Have you heard of Alan Watts, his lectures helped so much. you dont have to agree with all of his views you stumble across but PLEASE look at some of his shorter ones to start. The mind, making money, life. A few minutes of your time just to hear some words of wisdom.
We are all behind you Ruby <3
Hugs, H
No I haven't heard f him
DeleteBut I will look him up
Thank you x
I've always had the same with buying small clothes too, I also don't sew when I'm this size, because I hope it's not a permanent thing and I'll find the strength to gain the weight back. I also don't want to cause myself unnecessary pain by having to burst out of my clothes for the billionth time. Anyway, I think it's a positive thing, I hope! Sorry to ramble on!
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely dress.
Hope you can move past this blip :)
Xxx
Good to hear from you again Agnes
DeleteI need to catch up on your blog
Hope you doing ok x
Wow, what a bargain! Grey tones really suit you, Miss Ruby. I have to agree though, you do look unhappy and unwell compared to just a few short months ago.
ReplyDeleteI'm one of those people who has half a wardrobe of clothes I wear and half a wardrobe of clothes I don't. Like you, I have a full set of sizes 4-14AU. I'm always apprehensive to buy clothes because it feels like I'm jinxing myself!
<3
xxxx
It was a total bargain Bells!
DeleteThere is such a feeling of satisfaction buying something at. Knock down price
Hope you're doing ok my lovely x
I can't get a good enough look at the dress. Is the skirt part the same as the top?
ReplyDeleteYes it's the same
DeleteIt's a kind of shift dress x
