me now:

- don’t be stupid: you’re not gonna keep the weight off by just being completely careless with your body. do your research & listen to your body every now and then.

- don’t jump into f@sting immediately: it’s been proven that going from binging/normal eating to randomly fasting for long periods of time won’t actually help you lose weight. your body will go into preservation mode & hold onto your fat, you should start by restr!cting & then phase into it.

- don’t p*rge: i know not many people agree with this, but it’s literally so bad for you. it’s bad for you teeth, stomach, and esophagus. you don’t need to p*rge if you work on your self control. plus, it doesn’t even get rid of ALL the food you ate, just a portion. not worth it.

- get your ass to sleep: literally sleep is one of the best ways to help your body & is important for wl

- bring a snack everywhere, just in case: this can be an apple, cucumbers (i hate those things), or whatever safe food you have (especially if you’re f@sting

- keep up with your skincare & hygiene: if i feel like i may binge, i always see if there is something i can do to take care of my body simple things like doing my skincare routine, shaving, masks, etc have all helped

- remember that food is not your enemy, your enemy is your relationship with food is: i know this can seem hard to think of but honestly nutritious food is so good for you & can help with things other than weight such as providing a source for important vitamins! your body deserves fuel, even if it’s not a lot.

- BALANCE!!: i cannot stress this enough, you WILL NOT keep the weight off by ⭐️ving 24/7, you’ll end up b!nging & left right where you started. find a balance that you can stick with.
