10 REASONS TO ADOPT A PET

You save a life.

The cost of adoption is less than buying a pet.

Most shelter animals have had medical treatment and are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date with vaccines.

There are more unique pets to choose from in shelters. Age, breeds, mixed breeds, and personality choices are greater.

Many are already trained.

Your bed is pre-warmed on cold winter nights.

Animals are just ready to love you, no matter what.

Adopting from a shelter opens a cage for another pet who needs a new forever home.

An adult pet takes the guess work out of determining size, thickness of coat, and energy level.

Mixed breeds are unique compared to purebreeds and may have less genetically inherited health problems.

Do this four times repeatedly and you’ll be out. But how does it work? There’s some real brain science behind it.

It’s about time someone got around to uncovering all the cheat codes for this “human being” software. It’s only been out for like 10,000 years.

I’ve used this technique for about a year, and I can safely say that it has efficiently transformed my sleeping habits from several hours of struggle to fall asleep, to passing out in a matter of minutes.

It’s a form of Alexander Technique. It’s a technique that was designed for actors to keep their body in ready working condition and give it the best way to perform. This is the method used to calm, and center the body. Once the body is at that point it can perform anything you want it to.

Reblogging for later reference after I tried it earlier today to try to calm down. It actually does help a lot, not just for sleep but if you have problems with anxiety.

My default mental setting is “vibrating intensely in the background.” After doing this, I felt noticeably calm and relaxed - I wasn’t as fixated on my breathing, I wasn’t tense, my movements weren’t jerky and I didn’t feel like I had to be as tense as possible to be under control. 10/10 would recommend.

Is your current boyfriend your first serious relationship?

I’ve been in relationships in the past but none as serious as this one :)

How long into recovery did it take for the constant “food thoughts” to fade. All I think about 24/7 is FOOD and recovery. I have tried to tap back into my passions, but I can’t even read, write, or draw for over 3 minutes.

yup I couldn’t focus on anything. All I could do was research what I was going through for hours and hours and hours a day and eat 24/7. As I gained weight and continued persisting through recovery it got much better!

Please check out @fitwithcambrie on instagram. Your vids made me realize how messed up diet culture is. She promotes eating low carb, high animal protein and eating around 1200-1500 cals a day for young girls with lots of exercising. She is also constantly going back and forth between “maintaining” and “detoxing.” I wish she could see that the reason she constantly has to detox is because her body is in starvation mode and not at a happy set point! It’s so unnatural to constantly track!

man it feels soooooooo good to not be living that life anymore lol. 

[irene-9]

Did you find your cravings and mental food craziness decrease as your weight increased or was it just all over the place in recovery?

Yes, it overall decreased as my weight increased but I still felt like I was somewhat going through extreme hunger when my weight was plateauing at my highest weight at times. It slowly got better as I kept persisting through recovery :)

this is the first piece of ‘fitspiration’ that has ever in my life actually kinda inspired me.

[cwote]

Friendly reminder to check you’re not holding tension in your body. Let your shoulders drop, unclench your hands and jaw. Take a deep breath. Much better.

Today’s video is a response to watching High Carb Hannah’s video about gaining 20 lbs and starting a weight loss series to lose those 20 lbs. This video is for those who are trying to recover from yo-yo dieting, ED’s or those who want to prevent getting sucked into the calorie restriction trap. Let me know your thoughts in the comments! I hope you have a beautiful day! Xx

Eating 3000+ calories for weight loss // let's talk calories!

This is my personal experience and I am not telling you how many calories your unique body needs. Only YOU are able to know how many calories your body needs...

Yes, I really eat 3,000+ calories a day and I ate unlimited calories in order to lose weight on a plant based diet. This is my personal experience and I am not telling you how many calories your unique body needs. Only YOU are able to know how many calories your body needs. I do not recommend calorie counting for those who find it triggering. However, it is helpful if you are worried about eating ENOUGH calories or if you are curious and are not triggered by numbers. I never ever ever thought that I would one day be able to eat this many calories and lose/maintain a healthy weight, as I used to literally eat HALF the amount I do today. I made this video because I would have LOVED to see this video in my own recovery. I hope this video is helpful for you guys! I'd be happy to share my full cronometer account with you guys, if any of you know how to do that, let me know! Hope you have a beautiful day!

[irene-9]
