“omg How Did You Lose The Weight, What’s Your Secret?”

This feeling means I'm safe

That weird twisting feeling in my stomach means it's working

My stomach growling and those hunger pains means I'm doing what I'm soposed to

It's not a bad thing this is what I want this is what I need

This I just the small price i have to pay to get skinny"

It’s okay to miss food.

You’re valid my angel <3

Going to chicago next week for a late bday celebration with the bf. Ill really have to restrict this weekend and next week (⁠人⁠ ⁠•͈⁠ᴗ⁠•͈⁠)

being short and fat might be the worst thing the universe has given me

today’s my birthday and all I can’t think about is the food I’m going to have to eat to make others happy. ill have to eat practically nothing the rest of this week.

Take it from someone who has started a calorie deficit many times and stuck to it:

1. The first three days, you will be starving. It will be constant. It will suck. I cannot sugarcoat it.

But the good news is it doesn’t stay that miserable forever.

2. The first week you will have food noise. The physical hunger will go away, and the mental hunger will almost be worse. Do not give in or you will have to start at step one again.

3. After a week it starts to become a habit. The food noise is still there. But you have learned not to listen to it. You have learned to distract yourself with other things that you enjoy. (Since eating is not that much fun anyway)

4. After two weeks, it will become a habit.

Even if it seems hard to start back up again after a binge or a period of over eating, those first few days are the hardest. If you’re stuck in a binge restrict cycle, you’re never gonna get past that point of hunger and food noise.

Trust me, it’s worth it.
