    Fi I just wanted to say its been a few days since I had chance to catch up with your instagram and I’m astounded at the change!! ( no not in physical appearance) but in your cognitive speed, your reasoning, your coping with a emotions, your energy (though I realise you might not feel it yet!) You really are a true inspiration. I’m sorry if I’ve never been able to put this across properly before and sometimes I’ve not worded what I meant to say right but it was never intended as maliciousness to you whom I have the ultimate respect (I’m autistic too and can word things wrong without meaning). I can’t remember the last time I had pasta but you sure have inspired me. One things for sure the difference in nourishment to your brain is palpable. I can finally see you are going to achieve your dreams and I suspect inspire many others. P.s if you ever want to chat I’ve had some late involvement in trying to get ‘certain aspects of MEED changed around the autistic section it would always be good to hear your thoughts xx

      Hey lovely, thankyou for your comment. I agree, I have noticed improvements in all these areas. Amazing what happens with more food!
      I'm more than happy to help! I'm doing work with a similar organisation at the moment, so always happy to talk it through!

    Genuinely curious. If you eat pasta every day for dinner for the rest of your life, is this not just another rut you're stuck in?!
    Or is it different because it's an Ed fear food but a ASD safe food as opposed to an Ed safe food?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I literally just honestly don't understand so I am genuinely curious. NOT judging you or questioning your choices in recovery 🙏❤️ I'm genuinely just pleased that it's getting you to where you need to be and is helping you to feel better mentally xx 🤞

    • @Finding_Fi
      @Finding_Fi  2 роки тому +3

      A very good question (and thankyou for asking it so kindly!).
      Pasta is an ED fear food but ASD safe food. For me, recovery with my intake will be looking at what I used to eat. I've never eaten a huge variety of food... ASD related. However when I became unwell the types of food I ate dropped evern more (ED related). Me and my parents and team agree that I will never be someone who eats a huge variety of food because I never have (ASD), however, what we will work on is making sure I CAN eat whatever foods I want, if I want them. So no fear foods, nothing off limits because of the ED. I hope this makes sense! xxx

    That’s interesting what you said about Autism. Is it because of Autism the reason why you don’t really want variety in your meals. Why don’t you like variety? Do you have problems with trying new foods? (Are you scared to try new foods?)
    I only ask because my sister was just diagnosed with a light form of Autism like you and there’s many things we don’t understand about how she thinks. One if which is she is terrified of trying new things and if something bothers her or triggers something in her she has massive violent meltdowns.
    I know each individual on the spectrum is different and different things bother different people, but I’d really appreciate anything you could tell me about what it’s like for you to have Autism. And in any future videos if your comfortable talking about it, I’d really appreciate hearing you talk more about what Autism is like for you.
    I practically lived on pasta pre-anorexia. So it has helped me so much seeing you challenge it every day. It makes me feel like if you can do it I can do it! I love pesto too. Keep up the good work Fi! Also, have you ever tried Maruchan Instant Raman Cups? They’re my absolute favorite and it would give you some different things to challenge with your pasta challenge. I also challenge you to have Alfredo sauce and carbonara.
    Thank you! Stay strong Fi! I’m so proud of you! 💗

    • @Finding_Fi
      @Finding_Fi  2 роки тому +1

      I really struggle with and am very sensitive to textures and certain tastes, and this causes me a lot of anxiety around trying new foods.
      It goes beyond comfort in the foods you know and fear in those you don't, sensory issues around food are much more than fussy eating. It is hard to explain but it is very challenging. I've always had a very narrow range of food that I'll eat, though I'm starting to get better at trying new things.
      For me, it works really well if I'm allowed to do this in my own time and my own way (I'll explain that on an upcoming video).
      I'm so glad my pasta video has helped you! Pasta is good, it really is! You can do it love, one bite at a time. So much love! xxx
