THIS

I see this post alot

One that says something along the lines of ‘If I could just see what I look like at my ugw, that would be my greatest motivation’

I’m here to tell you something like that exists

It’s called http://bodyvisualizer.com

Obviously it won’t be you exactly, however it will give you a good idea of what your body will look like. All you have to do is put in your height, sex, age, what your gw is and it will give you an estimate of your body at that weight.

💕 stay safe 💕

Cardio work out machines are actually best in intervals. It allows more fat to be burned in between intervals while your heart rate is still up.

20 min elliptical

5 min stretch

15 min elliptical

5 min stretch

10 min elliptical

5 min stretch

10 min stationary bike

If you don’t have a work out machine at home or a membership to a gym, you can also jump rope, which is great exercise, walk, jog, or dance. Look up all the ways you can mindlessly burn calories such as tapping your foot.

Hair falling out? Depressed? Anxious? Acne? Vitamins + Minerals 101 for people who suffer from an ED

So I have noticed I havent seen a lot of posts that extensively go into the deficiencies of vitamins and minerals that people with EDs face. I am not here to tell you to stop doing what youre doing. But I want everyone to stay safe!  And these problems are not just osteoporosis, cancer, thyroid problems, heart problems. These are small things like your hair falling out, bruising super easy, skin problems, fatigue, depression, anxiety etc etc. Long term affects of these deficiencies are super serious as well. Personally I would like to be skinny but also keep some form of health also. is there a way to have both?  So I decided to make this post. Feel free to add onto this post with experiences and knowledge as long as it is constructive! I am trying to educate and inform since i feel like this topic is a little neglected. I also would like to say i am not a doctor and neither are you (probably) This is just a tool to help people choose supplements/foods based on the problems they are experiencing. There is information about hair falling out, acne, there are even vitamins that can help your metabolism on here. I highlighted things that i felt were common and “safe foods” these are obviously my own personal standards. There is a grocery list at the end of the foods mentioned the most that i think are the safest in calories and what not. (I choose to cut out gluten, red meat, milk and dairy for the most part)  

Be safe my lovely people <3

IF YOU NEED TO CALL 911 BUT ARE SCARED TO BECAUSE OF SOMEONE IN THE ROOM, dial and ask for a pepperoni pizza. They will ask if you know you’re calling 911. Say yes, and continue pretending you’re making an order. They’ll ask if there’s someone in the room.

You can ask how long it will take for the pizza to get to you, and they will tell you how far away a dispatcher is.

Okay so I get so many messages asking how I lost all the weight in three months and I can’t be bothered replying to everyone so i’m just going to write a post about it. So basically my weight loss took exactly one hundred days and I set myself a lot of rules that I didn’t break in order to lose it all.

1. Sit down as little as possible. There’s so much you could be doing that doesn’t involve sitting on your phone like cleaning your room (wiping all the surfaces, making your bed, vacuuming, doing a load of washing etc.), organising your draws and cupboards, pampering yourself (painting your nails, washing your face, moisturising, doing a face mask, tanning etc.). Just basically anything is better than sitting down, even when i’m on tumblr I walk around my room I never sit still.

2. Only ever eat one meal. I actually never counted calories when I was losing weight. I would have a coffee in the morning and allow myself to eat one meal at any time with any calories during the day. I found as long as I kept up all my other rules and only ever ate once I would lose weight so yes I was still eating McDonalds while I was losing weight and no I would not gain.

3. Set yourself a daily beauty routine. Not only did I want my body to look good but I wanted to look good too so I started a beauty routine for my hair, face and body that I did everyday. Not only was it a good distraction but I always looked good and got a shit tonne of compliments.

4. Exercise for at least an hour a day. This is where heaps of people fuck up. And no i’m not talking about going for a walk for an hour or sticking strictly to cardio I did a lot of ab and glute exercises because if you’re only doing cardio you may be losing weight but you can still be flabby, if you want a body that you see on tumblr you’re going to have to tone yourself up. I always did my muscle building exercises after dinner.

5. Drink 2L water everyday. Every single night before bed I’d fill up my water bottle and put it in the fridge without fail so every morning I would have 2L of cold water for the day.

So yeah, it’s more about being consistent and having a routine that you don’t fuck up then being really obsessive about calories and then accidentally slipping up and binging.

Me: *loses 15 pounds*

Me: it’s just water weight I haven’t lost any actual weight yet

[barbie-is-thinspo]

After 12hrs of fasting, your body starts burning fat

There aren’t any more calories to burn.

Imagine how much weight you could lose after 24 hours of fasting.

After 48 hours of fasting.

After 72 hours of fasting.

After a week of fasting.

[barbie-is-thinspo]

Honestly, not eating isn’t the hard part for me. It’s the waiting. Every moment of the day I just want it to be over: so I can go to sleep, wake up, and get back on the scale, so it can tell me I’m one step closer.
