how to not binge

first let’s understand why you’re binging…

you miss the food. you miss the flavor and you miss the freedom. that’s okay. restricting your diet is hard especially because you’ve had a taste for high cal foods and they taste great, i won’t lie. but i have been able to go about 2 months without binging, even though i miss the flavor.

my lw was at the beginning of the pandemic and i was eating like once every three days (because of my ocd). i got into recovery this year but i don’t think i was mentally ready for all the weight gain so i restarted my rexie journey about 2 months ago and i’ve lost a significant amount of weight (about 25 lbs)

now how to not binge!

actually enjoy your low cal meals. savor the flavor and really enjoy it. don’t eat them with the mindset of “this will make me skinny”, eat them with the mindset of “this is actually good food”. the more you start to look at these foods as delicious and tasty, the less you’ll want the high cal foods. look forward to the meals you cook. experiment with flavor and different textures. and remember it’s okay to miss that burger and that pizza, but there’s a whole world of different flavors you have yet to explore in low cal foods!

as i’m writing this, i’m having my breakfast: black coffee, a can of tuna with salt and pepper and some unsweetened applesauce. it might seem like bland food but i genuinely love the bitterness of the coffee and the sweetness from my saliva that follows after i’ve drank it, the savory and slightly spicy flavor of the tuna (i’ve always loved tuna since childhood so this one was pretty easy to like) and the applesauce, it’s like a treat and a fun little snack. i even consider it akin to candy, so i don’t feel the need to eat actually candy.

it’s a mindset to get into. just remember that you don’t have to suffer to be skinny, you can enjoy food while losing weight.

Benefits of intermittent fasting!

But first, the levels of it.

Level 0

0-12 hours -

At 4/8 hrs all food has left the stomach, blood sugars fall and insulin is no longer produced.

At 12 hrs all food consumed has been burnt, digestive system goes to sleep, body begins healing process, HGH (human growth hormone) begins to increase, glucagon is released to replace blood sugars.

Level 1

12-18 hours -

At 14 hrs body has converted to using its stored fat for energy, HGH increases dramatically.

At 16 hrs body is ramping up fat burning.

Level 2

18-24 hrs -

At 18 hrs HGH starts to skyrocket.

At 24 hrs autophagy begins, all glycogen stores are drained, ketones are released into the blood stream.

Level 3

24-48 hrs -

At 36 hours autophagy increases by 300%

Level 4

48-54 hrs -

Autophagy increases 30% more.

Immune system reset.

Level 5

54-72 hrs -

Regeneration starts.

Increased reduction in inflammatory response.

Level 6

72 hrs +

Autophagy maxes out.

Taking things into consideration, the benefits are:

Skin- reduces inflammation and acne.

Heart- HDL goes up - LDL and blood pressure go down.

Pancreas- insulin sensitivity, reduces blood sugar.

Gut- reduces reflux (GERD), reduces GI inflammation, improves microbiome.

Muscle- catabolic sparing, pain is reduced.

Bones- reduces pain

Extra Benefits:

Immunity:

reduces cancer risk, rise in stem cells.

Reproductive system:

Reduces PCOS risk (Polycistic ovaries syndrome) , improves fertility.

Brain:

improves sleep and mood, reduces Alzheimer risk, increases focus and energy.

my favorite korean spicy cucumber salad recipe ~ 100 cals

* one large cucumber (slice thinly to trick your mind that you have more food) = ~45 cals

* half a teaspoon of sesame oil = ~ 20 cals

* one teaspoon of sriracha/gochujang = ~ 5/10 cals

* one tablespoon of soy sauce = ~ 8 cals

* one to two teaspoons of rice vinegar/ apple cider vinegar = ~ 2 cals

* a sprinkle of red pepper flakes = btwn 1-6 cals depending of your spice tolerance

* a sprinkle of salt = ~ < 1 cal

* a teaspoon of minced garlic = 5 cals

* two sticks of chives = ~ 2 cals

it’s really good! this is about the size of a regular bowl! i would recommend eating with chopsticks so you eat slower.

this is so filling it’s actually insane!!! feel free to pair with some protein like a boiled egg (~77 cals) or any meats really!! you can also just eat it on its own!

wl tips coming from someone who got to my ugw (recovered and gained weight, trying again)

Don't exercise whilst fasting. I do not care how fat and gross you may feel. You will only make yourself hungrier and feel beyond exhausted. To last longer, preserve your energy. (U can go on a 30 min walk SLOWLY)

Fasting longer then I'd say 2 days will make you want to binge, if you are prone to binging and that kinda behaviour don't fast for extreme periods of time. It's a bad cycle to get stuck in, don't push it further

As long as you are under ur calorie deficit, you can eat anything. If that means having a beer and a pizza slice, you can. You can still have ur fave snacks, eating tones of veggies and never feeling satiated will only lead to binges and slower weightloss if it means you binge on the stuff u restricted from yourself in the first place. If you need to eat some cheesecake do that

If you aren't losing or have hit a plateau and you eat under 500 a day everyday. You aren't eating enough, sounds counter productive (less calories more weightloss) but your body will ass fuck ur metabolism and it will back fire

It takes time. Don't beat yourself up, it's a disorder and the thoughts aren't rational. You can't just jump into it with delusion that you'll eat egg whites everyday and a protein bar and you'll look like a model. Have realistic expectations and you won't yoyo your weight. Trying to speed run weightloss will only lead to speed running it all back

You honestly don't need to exercise. If you want to look muscular and toned, yes it helps. If you just want to drop weight a cal deficit is fine. Walk, be active and healthy yes. But you don't need to over exercise. I got to my ugw by just walking to school there and back 20 mins each way. I layed in bed the rest of the day. If you overeat a bit cool you can burn some calories. However you can lose weight and not workout. It's possible

Take care of your metabolism and it will take care of you. Have high cal metabolism day, this prevents plateau and ur body shutting down and refusing to burn anymore fat. Ur metabolism has a huge role in ur body, and neglecting it will screw you.

Don't weigh yourself everyday, once a week max. It may be tempting but crying over 0.3kg of water weight will only bring you down more. Your hard work is paying off I promise.

Be very VERY mindful of snacking, early in my wl journey I'd be like oh a small snack small cals it's fine. It adds up, and the habit stays. If you can't handle hunger that's on you. Its tough, but it means its working. Eat actually filling, protein dense meals. The habit of snacking and constantly eating will not lead to you getting to ur gw.

Not really a tip but a good thing I heard when I first started out. YOU WILL BE HUNGRY. "Uh yeah duh no shit" no I mean it, even a little, you'll be hungry to some extent. You are not going to be full and happy from 2 eggs and a cucumber stick. Learning to deal with hungry and push past it was better then crying about it and snacking to get rid of an uncomfortable feeling

WEIGHTLOSS IS NOT HARD. Restricting VERY low is hard yes, but weightloss isn't hard. It's challenging, it's uncomfortable. This mindset made it alot more achievable and less intimidating. Calories in calories out, simple. It is an [uncomfortable] feeling that's all

Know your triggers, this takes time but hear me out. I would binge rarely because I knew that weighing myself, getting emotional, angry at myself for eating was a trigger. "Fuck it I'm fat anyways" kinda energy. I limited the times I weighed myself, I'd think logically after I ate "I need the calories to do x,y,z plus my metabolism. I realistically didn't eat that much to actively gain weight. I will be fine" this took time and getting to the root of the problem is the way to go

Hope this helped someone, every wl journey is different and a disorder is a disorder at the end of the day. Stay safe 💗

What do you do to keep your hair growing that you can do with typical kitchen ingredients?

IM SO HAPPY SOMEONE ASKED ME. I HAD THIS HAIR MASK THAT SAVED MY HAIR

So basically the first thing you're going to do is realize that you cannot save this and reuse it this is like a one-time thing or else it's going to start smelling weird trust me I've done this before.

So basically get out your bowl or whatever and you're going to crack an egg and mix it up. Now just add enough conditioner until you want it to be slightly thick so it's less mess to clean up

Just put this like all over your hair for like a good 30 minutes.

And then you have to wash your hair on cold and shampoo twice and if you wash this on hot water you will have to dig scrambled eggs out of your hair because it will cook the egg so I do not recommend doing that so just suck it up and wash it on cold. Remember cold water boosts your metabolism anyway

[ribbonreaper]

hi i really want to actually start like... you know, do you have any advice on how to start and not get unmotivated quickly?

Vanessa's official guide on how to not fuck up at yk what.

(Tw obvi)

Okay first random thing I would recommend is decide what d!3t soda you're going to like, or if you don't like a d!3t soda at all and you actually want to be more like a flavored water girl. Trust me this will just make things easier down the line. I remember at the beginning I was so confused on what to drink so this is so random but I just wanted to put that there so that way you don't end up drinking all your daily c@ls like I did 😭😭

Make sure that if you're trying to make friends here do not try to get a stupid coach. There is no point because these are all just crusty old men you do not need that---there's so many people on this side of Tumblr that are actually nice and we'll talk to you and give advice I promise a old man yelling at you for b!nging isnt gonna fix anything.

Then go on any of the websites online and find your daily c@l intake. If you new to r3$triction I would maybeee do 800-900 a day and work your way down. DW about everyone else f@$ting for weeks just start at like 800-900 a day

For the amount of c@ls your eating, try to make it healthy. Trust me there's a whole bunch of sweet treats that you can get for lower c@|ories then normal ones. And also you need PROTEIN. not SUGAR. (I'm kinda yelling at myself lmao I'm a sweet tooth ignore that pls)

SMOOTHIES. they are so good and you can find hundreds of recipes on the internet!!

READ THE CH|C D|3T. THIS HAS BASICALLY ALMOST EVERYTHING YOU ARE EVER GOING TO NEED. If you do not have a copy to this because basically every single physical copy ever has already been sold because the book is now banned try to find a pdf online for free there is a whole bunch of them if you look enough, but if you're being lazy you can just DM me and I will send you a copy of the Google doc. This has uhh EVERYTHING. But if you're too lazy to read the whole entire thing 100% read the one about "bars" so that way you know which protein bars to get

Speaking of protein bars make sure to always have like one or two in your bag. Just in case you end up feeling really dizzy and you're worried you're going to pass out or something I would have one in your bags that way you can urgently eat it at all times.

F@$t|ng can be good. If you can't get a all to it just used to stop watch on your phone and know that it takes 19 hours for ketosis to start AKA your body starts burning your dumbass f@t. Maybe do more research on this because I'm not 100% an expert on here so feel free to correct me people. I would start with maybe a 12 hour one and work your way up. Don't go past 72 unless ur 100% sure you'll be ok. We don't wanna pass out here that's not good for anyone.

Having a #1 th!NSP0 board or person is something that helped me- idk about you I would just go on Pinterest and look up "Wl motivation" so it doesn't flag you and find something.

MAKE MOOTS. TRUST ME #1 ADVICE HERE.

TAKE YOUR DAMN VITAMINS. No I'm not 100% on what vitamins to take here because I myself literally do not take them because I don't have access to them right now. But I know that there's a whole bunch of people who have actually good information about what kind of vitamins to take so--follow their advice not mine because I don't want to accidentally give you crappy advice

This is like really random but like don't stress if your food isn't like organic or aesthetic looking. Trust me 95% of the time fruit is fruit so if it's not some non-GMO organic fruit I promise you'll probably get almost the same health benefits or whatever from fruit (sorry people who are bitches about only eating organic don't yell at me I know it's a difference)

PVRG!NG DOES NOTHING. DO NOT START IT TRUST ME THERE IS NO BENEFITS TO IT (I'm not judging people who are struggling with it right now don't worry ik where your at I'm trying to stop pvrging rn actually I'm not shaming the m!@ people<3) Ik none of this in general is that good but trust me just thr after effects of pvrging is not worth thr half a pound and 1/6 of the ca!s you got rid of

That's about all I have right now. Maybe I'll make a part two

Xoxo ,
