Because I’m a lil tired of the typical “I want a guy to notice me”… I just want something real 

When you’re thin:

~you will feel your shoulder blades trying to slice through your back like bony little wings

~your under eye circles will become magnificent, like watercolour pools showing your dedication to this skinny hell

~your waist will be so tiny, everyone will have to wrap their arms around up to the elbows to hug you

~your bony knees knock together when you sit in your seat in the classroom, it’s a little uncomfortable but your thighs are so far apart it’s like they’re estranged sisters at thanksgiving dinner 

~you’re so lightheaded, that you see stars all the time- your world has turned into a fucked up planetarium 

~those collar bones don’t just “hold water”- they cut glass. They are clavicles some people would die for 

~the boniness of your fingers feel so good clasped in the hand of another, like a string of pearls wrapped in silk

~you stay home instead of eating out with your friends- it’s bittersweet. You draw pictures of food instead, you work out, or drink tea. 

and the other wants to go full skeleton so that i look as sick as i am and people stop demanding more than i can give

For gum chewers: Nobody tells you that you will expel a storm of wind out of nowhere or whenever you drink water.

Nobody tells you that your legs will feel like literal jello if you go past 24hrs.

Nobody tells you that after a certain point you’ll have a constant headache.

Nobody tells you that your stomach will growl loud enough for a whole room of people to hear.

Nobody tells you about the pain in your ribs.

Nobody tells you that you’re going to feel like you’re going vomit the lack of anything in your stomach.

Pink Salt helps headaches and fatigue.

magnesium helps the chest and stomach pains

And potassium helps the dizziness and heart palpitations

If you constantly crave sweets you are potassium deficient.

A B-Complex vitamin is a life saver if you have a busier life style.

One a day- vitamins can help reduce hair loss and brittle nails.

Your body can only absorb about 1 cup of water every 15 minutes. If you constantly chug water you are just going to pee a lot and flush out lingering vitamins that can help keep you healthier longer. Plus you can still end up dehydrated because you will fill your stomach and ultimately absorb less water than if you just drink it casually throughout the day.

If you do strict water fasts, after about 30 hours your body enters “atophagy” which (long term) will help with loose skin and cellulite. It taps out around 60 hours though so doing 2-3 60 hour fasts a week will get you optimum results. Make sure to eat high fat, high protein/ low carb during the re-feed or you will regain what ever you lost. Gum, diet drinks, sugar, artificial sweetener and the like will stop atophagy. Water, bone broth, herbal/green tea and black coffee are the only safe things to consume during an atophagy fast.

Walking and short (10-20 minute) Hiit sessions during a fast is more effective for fat loss than long hard workouts.

Leafy greens (espically spinach, arugula, mustard greens and kale) are very high in calcium, iron, and fiber so eat a tonne especially if you are bulimic.

I have lost 120lbs with the help of my IF/EF groups on Facebook. I have learned so much from these people and my doctor is very pleased with my progress. I started out as dangerously obese and now I’m almost a healthy weight in only 2 years. I have spent countless hours researching nutrition and though I struggle with bulimia (deptression, anxiety and BED paired with obsessive tendencies mixed with diet addiction has lead me down a bad path) I have not had many health issues associated with the disease. I do have extremely sensitive teeth and I’m addicted to laxatives but I dont have thinning hair, skin problems, intestinal issues,brittle nails, my bone density is good and my muscle ratio is healthy.

I know we are all sick but if you can make smart choices you’ll be thin before you’ll be dead. I hope people see this and can at least supplement their bodies as you become your desired aestetic/weight.

One of the best ways to use the law of attraction for weight loss is to act “as if” and create positive expectations through the practice of gratitude, the use of affirmations or positive self-talk, and the power of visualization.  

Write down the features/weight etc. you want to have as if you already have them. This is a very powerful message to the universe and to your sub-conscious mind.

Once you have your affirmation list, look at it every day, best is in the morning before you start your day (while you are drinking your green tea!) and even better, all throughout the day and before you go to bed. To go with your written affirmations, visualize yourself as the thin person you are.

Visualize yourself in the clothes you want to wear, feel it, be it! This is an important part of weight loss, do not skip this step, it really helps! The more you do this, the easier your weight loss will be.

It is so important to do things that make you feel good about yourself during this time.

Be kind to yourself. Don’t beat yourself up if you fall off the health wagon and overeat. Just get right back on and continue. You deserve it and you are worth it. Congratulate yourself on the big and small victories and successes.
