Finally we went
to the metro after waiting for so long thanks to Miss Indrani who prepared for
this trip. On the day of the trip we met in college, had a delicious breakfast
made by Hana then went with the bus to Dubai Metro Operational Control Center
where they have presented us with information’s about the Metro. After the
presentations we headed to Al Rashidiya Metro station where we bought the
ticket. We took the train from Al Rashidiya station to Union station and back
to Al Rashidiya Station. It was a fantastic trip and we have to do it more
often :p
Bellow are some of the photos I took during the trip
Anorexia
nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by excessive
food restriction and fear, irrational fear of gaining weight, and a distorted
body self-perception. It typically involves excessive weight loss. Anorexia
nervosa usually develops during adolescence and early adulthood. Due to the
fear of gaining weight, people with this disorder restrict the amount of food
they consume. This restriction of food intake causes metabolic and hormonal
disorders.
Anorexia nervosa
has many complicated implications and may be thought of as a lifelong illness
that may never be truly cured, but only managed over time. Anorexia nervosa is
characterized by low body weight, inappropriate eating habits and obsession
with having a thin figure. Individuals suffering from it may also practice
repeated weighing, measuring, and mirror gazing, alongside other obsessive
actions, to make sure they are still thin, a common practice known as
"body checking".
Those suffering
from this disorder often view themselves as "too fat" even if they
are already underweight. Persons with anorexia nervosa continue to feel hunger,
but deny themselves all but very small quantities of food. The average caloric
intake of a person with anorexia nervosa is 600–800 calories per day, but
extreme cases of complete self-starvation are known. It is a serious mental
illness with a high incidence of comorbidity and similarly high mortality
rates to serious psychiatric disorders.
Hypokalaemia, a drop in the level
of potassium in the blood, is a symptom of Anorexia nervosa. A significant drop
in potassium can cause abnormal heart rhythms, constipation, fatigue, muscle
damage and paralysis. 50-75% of individuals with an
eating disorder experience depression. In addition, 1 in 4 individuals who are
diagnosed with anorexia nervosa also exhibit obsessive compulsive disorder.
Symptoms for a typical patient
include:
Refusal to maintain a normal body mass index for their age
Fearful of even the slightest weight gain and takes all precautionary
measures to avoid weight gain and becoming overweight
Lanugo: soft, fine hair growing on the
face and body
Preoccupation with food, recipes, or cooking; may cook elaborate dinners for others,
but not eat the food herself
Dieting despite being thin or dangerously underweight
May engage in frequent, strenuous exercise
Perception of self to be overweight
despite being told by others she is too thin and, in most cases, underweight.
Becomes intolerant to cold and frequently complains of being cold from loss
of insulating body fat or poor circulation resulting from extremely low blood
pressure; body temperature lowers (hypothermia) in effort to conserve energy
Depression: may
frequently be in a sad, lethargic state
Abdominal distension
Treatment:
Treatment for
anorexia nervosa tries to address three main areas. 1) Restoring the person to
a healthy weight; 2) Treating the psychological disorders related to the illness;
3) Reducing or eliminating behaviors or thoughts that originally led to the
disordered eating.*

As I mention in the previous post we went to Green Mubazara,
after we came back I decided to focus on my studies and start doing my
projects, however, during the week my family surprised me with a trip for three
days to Makkah for Umrah. On 4th April we flew from Dubai
International Airport to King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jaddah via
Saudi Arabian Airlines and as soon as we reached there we had to drive to
Makkah by car for nearly 2 hours. When
we reached there we went directly to perform Tawaf round the Kaaba and Sa'i between Al-Safa and Al-Marwah. After we finished Sa'i we waited till the Fajr prayer and
went back to the hotel. We stayed in Makkah Clock Royal Tower- Fairmont where
we enjoyed the pleasant view of Al Kaaba from the top. During the rest of the
day and the days following we went back and forth between Haram and the hotel.
In the last day we went for Tawaf Al Wada’ and took a car to the airport. This
was one of my best holidays because it gave me the feeling of satisfaction and
relief.
“Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is
daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart
without words than words without a heart.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
Last week was so tens, we were planning to travel but unfortunately
it did not happen, however, as the weekend got close we decided to go to Al Ain
and spend the weekend in Green Mubazzara. We spent a pleasant time there and
enjoyed the cool breeze in the evening.
