Be Nothing

when you feel a craving coming on:

drink a glass or two of water, slowly

have a piece of fruit, like an apple

make some warm herbal tea with natural sweetener

go for a long walk or hike, put your earphones in and clear your head - walk with a friend if you’d prefer

if you’re still craving the food, have the tiniest bit of it, no more than a bite, and have another glass of water

distractions:

watch a long movie or start a new show

study! complete homework or begin revising for exams

write down your own thinspo imagines

do some online window shopping and look at all the outfits you want to wear at a smaller size

make your own thinspo playlist

do some yoga or meditation

things to keep in mind:

you already know what your favourite foods taste like - you don’t need to eat them again in bulk

imagine the amount of progress you’ll make tomorrow if you exercise self control right now

the shame and guilt that follows a binge is not worth it

the physical pain and exhaustion is not worth it

you’re not just affecting your weight, you’re affecting your overall health, your mental well-being, your skin

I hate eating.

I need to eat.

I hate eating.

I need to eat.

Cheekbones.

Jawline.

Gap between your legs.

Curves your skeleton has - not fat-related.

Waist-hip-ratio.

Rib cage. Hip bones.

Slim upper arms.

Slim lower arms.

Putting your skinny fingers around

your skinny wrist.

I always feel so fucking fat

how to act

act happy because a happy person can't be anarexic right?

Don't talk about food, because normal people don't fixate on food

Don't stare at people when they are eating, because people will notice your food obsession

How to dispose of food

Blend and pour down the sink

flush down toilet

dispose outside of your house

feed to pets/siblings

NEVER DISPOSE IN YOUR OWN BIN

excuses for not eating

nausea (can work for days, if you say you have a stomach bug, it can get you out of eating for days)

ate at home/ate at school

how to make it look like you're eating more

take food from the pantry often to make it look like your snacking

leave wrappers around

leave dirty dishes in your room

when eating with family, keep a drink bottle next to you and spit food into there and dispose of it later

ask your parents to buy certain food (like chocolate)

switch packaging of diet foods with high cal food (eg swap sugar free jello packet with regular jello packet)

What to do if your forced to eat

Don't make a big deal out of it, because if you do that suspicious
