@MK Sad but true. I've been very nice to her for a while now, compliments and such and physiologically she does seem better but now it is just mostly an issue of diet and nutrition!

RE: How to get my dying skinny girlfriend into Peatism?
Thank you so much for this. I'll slowly try get her to integrate these dietary changes, she always gets either a juice or milkshake whenever we go out so I think it should be pretty easy to get her to start consuming these at home.
And yeah I've been reluctant to introduce iron supplements to her considering what peat said but she is genuinely shedding a lot of hair and is disgusted by organ meat so it's a tough spot to be in. Her eating disorder isn't horribly bad, she's not underweight to the point she gets blown away by the wind but she just has this terrible habit of under eating and being sick from eating a lot and with the way it's heading it could get a lot worse if I don't do something.

How to get my dying skinny girlfriend into Peatism?
Long story short I dated this girl for a while and near the end of our relationship I was toxic and shamed her for gaining weight, we would argue all the time until we eventually broke up. After our break up, she developed an eating disorder due to my comments and rapidly lost a lot of weight.
We have recently gotten back together and she is in terrible health, low iron, low in multiple vitamins, gut issues etc, extreme shedding of her hair, low libido etc all while being 18 which should not be happening at her age.
She gets intense stomach pain if she eats a large meal and will throw up the food, all she eats is a protein bar in the morning followed by a snus pouch and then rice and chicken in the evening.
I want to get her into Peatism but I'm not sure how to start, if I suddenly introduce her to it she will balloon in weight which I am trying to avoid. Should I start with the carrot salads? She also does live with her parents so I won't have the ability to just have her eat the same food as I do, it would be more me dictating her what to eat and how to prepare it and she would hopefully do as told. Really need some advice here, I feel responsible for what she has done to herself and I love her too much to continue to allow her to do this to herself.

RE: feeling warm yet my body is ice cold to the touch to others, am i of the living dead?
@dan-saintdominic
Probably right tbh. I’m mediterranean in race but have lived all my life in England which is quite cold compared to the mediterranean. Perhaps genetically I should be basking in the heat rather then the cold but my body has adapted to the cold weather and it’s having an impact on my organs, no clue, probably just a schizo theory, but I do find the summer weather uncomfortable when I visit home in Southern Europe, can handle the British summer just fine in contrast.

Mostly cold. I’ll start warming it up as you suggest, hopefully see some improvement.

I get uncomfortably warm if I heat the house up too much, I’ll start to sweat and be irritable, maximum i’d go is 19 degrees but any higher and I’m too hot.

I just eat based on hunger levels throughout the day but I’d say 2100-2300 calories, just depends on the day.
Diet is pretty peaty, 60% of my caloric intake is dairy if I had to guess, eat meat most days and eat potatoes perhaps 3 times a week, sourdough once a week, vegetables 4 times a week and I eat fruits everyday, supplement D3 and K2 and aspirin daily.

not sure what this could be..my house temperature hovers at around 15c/59f which is ideal for me and i do feel warm, yet my body is ice cold to the touch, almost like im a dead corpse.
my hands and feet however do feel cold to me but the rest of my body feels fine, but when someone touches me with their warm hands i can sense the significant temperature differential

RE: Raw Egg Slonking
I incorporate 2-3 raw eggs in my milkshakes, gives it a really nice and thick but also creamy texture, almost like a custard.
