Disclaimer: I am very mentally ill. I do not in any way promote eating disorders or self-harming behaviors. This post is not meant to encourage anyone to copy my daily methods, but to help me connect with people who struggle with same issues as I do. 

A n a

eat 500 cal a day to keep your metabolism going

allowed exceptions - do not EVER go over 1000 cal: - birthdays, holidays, celebrations, etc. - staying at boyfriend’s place - going out to eat with family - visiting grandparents

fasting is ok (never longer than 3 days), but I find it easier to not binge when I eat a bit every day

weigh yourself every morning before eating and after going to the bathroom

only do this if nobody is home can thus cannot catch you doing it

do not purge or self harm, no matter how disgusting you feel

look at thinspiration every morning

drink at least 2 liters of water; the more the better

drink green tea

avoid bread and pasta!! (my greatest weaknesses; I’d die for a bowl of rice)

eat only when in the presence of other people

never eat alone/hidden

bite food 15 times or until it is liquid and only then swallow

avoid kitchen

avoid bringing food into your room

hide food out of your sight

drink two glasses of water before a meal, one during eating, and one afterwards

B i n g e

before you binge:

look at thinspiration

drink four glasses of water

go for a walk with dogs

brush teeth

occupy yourself

games (I like RPGs because they let me really “go away” from my life) -Skyrim (food is present as a healing method but I usually do fine with spells/potions) -Dragon Age (Inquisition is my favorite) -Diablo 3 -Stardew Valley (a farming game; food is present but it is in a pixel style and does not cause me personally discomfort) -League of Legends

books

music -especially something you like to play loud

meditate

browse Tumblr

eat safe foods if you cannot seem to avoid binging

carrots

grapes

bananas

oatmeal

baby carrots

apples

blueberries

strawberries

sea buckthorn berries (add to a smoothie to get a huge punch of C vitamins) They don’t taste that good by themselves, which can curb your appetite!

baby carrots (i just love them so much)

seriously 200 grams (0.45 pounds?) of baby carrots is ~60 cals!

H e a l t h

take your meds and vitamins daily

take necessary meds for panic attacks and hallucinations when needed

remember to get your calcium and protein!!!

either a glass of fat-free milk (diary or vegetarian) or fat-free, natural yogurt; food supplements if you seriously hate diary-like products

yogurt with oatmeal and berries makes a good breakfast

take sleeping meds around 9pm-10pm

exercise daily

take dogs out for walks

30 minutes of brisk walking burns ~180 cals

excuses: -”I need to take a break from school/working” -”I need some fresh air” -”The dogs were being restless” / other excuse related to the dogs -”It’s a nice weather”

ab and arm workout in the mornings and evenings

brush teeth at least twice daily

after shower/washing face use lotions to make sure your skin doesn’t dry and crack in the harsh Arctic air

////////TW for sex,

you won’t poop much

drinking a lot results to a lot of peeing which might cause problems. Have some pads/toilet paper with you just in case

do not talk about food

think “I do not want that” instead of “I can’t have it”

prolonging sex not only allows you to burn more calories but you both can have a lot of fun

it is essential to keep yourself occupied
