TW : ED

[chisatoslut-deactivated20231013]

I used to think the ana community was pretty ok when it came to fatphobia. Yes, I do know that some ppl who suffer from an ed do have some internalized fatphobia but most people I’ve seen on here are pro recovery and again it’s internalized fatphobia so it’s never directed to others.

But it all changed when I went to take a peak at ana twitter and y’all are going to hell !

Using fatspo is already disgusting but using videos, photos or tiktoks of fat people trying on cute outfits, loving their bodies and being confident and proud of themselves -wich by the way if you suffer from an ed, YOU KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE HOW HARD THAT IS TO ACCOMPLISH IN THE SOCIETY WE LIVE IN- without they’re consent is another level of disgusting.

Have u heard of kpop diets? Wat r some that u think work?

Technically all of the diets work since idols have shown that they have lost weight (not that they really needed to in the first place). Most of them are quick and short term weight loss methods that idols take on before an upcoming debut, album, or tour. A lot of the diets are unhealthy, excessive, and usually it’s  the companies that strictly enforce and moderate the diets. 

Here are the ones I that think give a healthier plan but shouldn’t really be adopted wholly as you should incorporate more meals and snacks to individually suit your weight and schedule:

Seo In Young’s Banana Diet - “Morning: 1~2 bananas, 2 cups of water. Lunch: healthy and non-greasy Korean meal. Snack: ½~1 banana when feeling hungry. Dinner: Korean meal mostly composed of rice and herbs.”

Park Bom’s Lettuce and Corn Diet - “She snacks healthily and sometimes substitutes watermelon for rice to keep her satiated. Bom’s a major snacker so she eats a total of five meals a day – three main meals and two snacking meals. Trainer Hwang created the two snacking meals to allow Bom to enjoy her two favorite foods – corn and nuts.”

Yoon Eun Hye’s Diet - “Morning: rice 170 g, dried pollack bean spout soup, steamed eggs, seasoned sesame leaves, corn salad, kimchi. Lunch: rice 170 g, crab soup, sweet potato sprouts, three colored cold salad, boiled kidney beans, kimchi. Snack: ½ bag of puffed corn cookies, cherry tomatoes 200g. Dinner: rice 170 g, mushroom stew, roasted herring with salt, stir-fried butterbur, bean sprouts, kimchi. Snack: 10~20 strawberries.”

Kim Shin Young’s Diet - “In the morning, I eat a bowl of brown rice with stir-fried vegetables. 2 hours later, I eat 10 almonds, soy milk, and a quarter of an apple. In the afternoon, I eat calamari or any another protein source with vegetables, and 2 hours later I once again eat 10 pieces of almonds and an apple.”

Girl’s Generation Diet - “diet that consisted of rice, grilled chicken breast, blanched broccoli, and seasonal vegetables, while for lunch, they had the same rice and grilled chicken breast, but with a cabbage and paprika salad and almonds. For dinner, the girls had sweet potatoes, eggs, and a cabbage and paprika salad.”

Davichi’s Kang Min Kyung - “revealed the first secret was sweet potatoes, “I ate half sweet potato a day. With the sweet potato diet I was able to lose 6kg in 2 weeks. I love eating cookies and chocolate, so every time I had cravings for them I would have a bite of sweet potato.” For her second diet secret she credited black juice, which involves in the mixing and grinding of different black foods. Kang Min Kyung explained, “You mix black beans with black rice and milk, then you grind them to drink.”

And here are the ones I do not recommend since you won’t have any energy or nutrients in your body (you’ll most likely gain all the weight back anyways):

IU’s Diet - “diet menu consisted of apples, potatoes, and protein drinks.  She would divide the three foods into three separate meals a day (i.e., apple for breakfast, potato for lunch, and protein drink for dinner).”

9 MUSES Paper Cup Diet - “involves eating three paper cups of rice, side dishes, and vegetable or fruit.”

KARA Nicole’s Danish Diet - “a diet plan that is used at the Royal Danish Hospital, is a very strict high-protein and low-calorie diet that lasts for 14 days. The majority of the diet plan is composed of animal protein and black coffee.“ 

Jung Hye Yeon’s Diet - “Morning: 1 piece of chicken breast, 1 sweet potato, 1 cup of milk, after meal vitamins. Lunch: 1 piece of chicken breast, 1 sweet potato, broccoli. Snack: max of 10 cherry tomatos. Dinner: 1 piece of chicken breast, 1 sweet potato.”

Secret’s Diet - “Monday - Morning: 1 slice of toast, 1 apple, 1 sweet potato. Lunch: chicken breast salad. Dinner: 8 cherry tomatoes, 1 cucumber. Tuesday -  Morning: 1 slice of toast, low-fat milk. Lunch: 1 sweet potato. Dinner: 8 strawberries, 5 cherry tomatoes. Wednesday -  Morning: 1 slice of toast, low-fat milk. Lunch: 1 sweet potato, 5 cherry tomatoes. Dinner: 5 strawberries, 1 cucumber. Thursday - Morning: 1 slice of toast, low-fat milk. Lunch: chicken breast, 8 strawberries. Dinner: 5 cherry tomatoes, 1 cucumber. Friday - Morning: 1 slice of toast, 1 apple. Lunch: 3 eggs, 1 cucumber, 5 cherry tomatoes. Dinner: 10 strawberries, 1 cucumber. Saturday - Morning: 1 slice of toast, low-fat milk. Lunch: 1 sweet potato. Dinner: 1 tofu, 3 cherry tomatoes. Sunday - Morning: 1 slice of toast, 1 apple, low-fat milk. Lunch: 1 sweet potato. Dinner: 1 cucumber.

Remember that idols pair their diets with daily workouts, activities, promotions, and choreography practices that can take up the majority of their day. Most of them are severely under eating, underweight, and sleep deprived.

You should use these diets as a base line guide of what you should be eating, not a set rule that you have to strictly follow. There’s a general trend of incorporating foods such as Korean sweet potatoes, brown rice, boiled eggs, salads, and chicken breasts that you should add to your meals. 

There’s really no need to go through such extreme lengths. They’re idols for a reason and their whole career, income, and reputation are based on their visuals. Good luck :-)

how i’ve been losing weight

obefore i continue i just want to say that this doesnt work for everyone please try out different things and find out what is good for you.

not pro anything!!!

>meals<

i skip breakfast and only have a glass of water

i only eat an apple at school (same when it’s the weekend)

during the day (whether its at school or not) i’m constantly drinking water. it doesn’t have to be plain disgusting water, i infuse it with cucumbers and lemon. (tastes delicious!!)

when i get home (around 3:15) i eat a snack which is usually something very low cal like a few crackers and some green tea. 

i have dinner around 7:30 and its always the same thing: two pieces of whole wheat toast one with avocado and egg and the other with tuna and onion. (OKAY SO, i know that sounds disgusting but it’s really filling and helps you lose weight but you can always swap things around and change it to whatever fits you.)

i only occasionally have a proper dinner and that's probably like once a week so my mom doesn’t get suspicious.  

i do allow myself junk food but only like once every 2 weeks. this way i wont think: “oh i haven’t had junk food in so long i need to binge.” instead i’m like “i had something a week ago so im fine.”

AND ALSO WHEN I SAY JUNK FOOD I MEAN LIKE A LITTLE PIECE OF CHOCOLATE WASHED DOWN WITH 4 GLASSES OF WATER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU DRINK HEAPS OF WATER SO YOU DONT BINGE!!!!

EXERCISE!

>I dont do a lot because i am a lazy shit<

i do like 100 star jumps (its rlly easy actually and that is coming from a very lazy person.)

50 squats 

100 high knees 

stretches 

arm exercises (to get rid of the flab and no i don’t use equipment just search up arm exercises)

i do these around 10pm so a long while after dinner and i don’t do them all in order they are scattered around.

i’ve been doing this for a week and i have lost around 5 pounds on the scale but you can see a massive visual difference. like i said it doesn’t work for everyone but stay safe i love you!

Sugar Detox:

Why: To get rid of blackheads, love handles and to improve health. Within 72-96 hours your skin should be noticeably improved and glowy. To be free of the sugar addiction that we all have. To give yourself some control when you eat.

How: Generally the sugar detox is a month long, but, starting with a 3 day detox  can be really beneficial. For it to work, you have to go cold turkey. So no:

- No Added sugars

- No Fruits(You can have them again on day 4)

-Starchy vegetables (corn, sweet potato, butternut squash etc)

-No dairy

-No grains 

-No Alcohol

-No artificial sweeteners

Doing this is beneficial because you’ll begin to taste the natural sugars in things afterwards.

What can you eat?

-Proteins(poultry, fish, tofu, eggs etc)

-Vegetables(broccoli, kale, spinach etc)

-Healthy fats(nuts, avocados)

-Unsweetened teas

-Black coffee

(You don’t have to be hungry on this detox)

Warnings: The first 3 days of this are the hardest, you can experience fatigue, irritability and brain fog. That’s just the withdrawal symptoms. So, if you can, choose three days where you can manage to handle these symptoms. eg. Maybe choose 3 days when you’re home. But, if you feel like you can’t get past that feeling of needing to eat something sugary, have a fruit.

☁️random tips☁️

🍒stretching your arm/legs/abdomen helps slim you down A LOT.

i do about 15-20 mins of stretching

-which sounds boring but putting on ur favorite show/playing music gets it over with pretty fast

🍒if you are having trouble with your waist, do planks and side planks.

i know they can be hard but you can work up to longer times.

i do 1min 30sec each side and 2mins regular planks

-it doesn’t really matter how many times you do them, i do them whenever im bored tbh and you see progress fast

🍒doing lots of squats and wall sits help keep your legs toned

i would rather have skinny but toned legs rather than skinny, fatty legs

-try to hold for at least a minute

-the more you do, try to add a little more time (i’ve held for 6-7 minutes once)

—random ass tip that you really dont have to follow—

k so for some weird ass reason, i find it really attractive to have a toned vastus medialis oblique(VMO), which is location on the front of your thigh, right above your kneecap.

this is a little excercise i do to keep that muscle toned:

-sit down on the floor with your back, shoulders, and glutes up against the wall.

-sit up tall and bend your left knee in toward your chest with your left foot flat on the floor. extend your right leg out in front of you with your foot slightly pointing out to the right

-without leaning away from the wall, lift your right leg in the air as high as you can and hold for as long as you can.

-switch legs and repeat.

i dont have a set amount of time i have to hold or how many reps, but you will notice the muscle toning in just a few days.

IU Diet

IU is a Kpop idol not only known for her voice but also a petite body, here is her 300 cal diet she goes on three weeks before tours.

Breakfast - One apple (95 cal), you can cut it up or eat it whole but that's all you get to eat in the mornings 

Lunch - One medium-sized sweet potato (114), eat it slowly and make it last because there no snacks in between lunch and dinner.

Dinner - A protein shake, it can be vanilla or chocolate as long as it’s under 100 cals

mix this with light exercise and stretching and you should quickly lose weight.

🌺 and now here are some proofs for the sceptical audience:

[n00dl-dude]

softcore changes that made me lose fuckloads of weight

intermittent fasting (16 hours of not eating and a few normal meals in the remaining 8 hours)

when breaking a fast eat either protein+carbs or protein+fat. try to avoid fat+carbs combo when breaking a fast

swap all normal sweets and treats for grain bars grain cookies organic millet snacks etc (despite the same amount of calories they dont make you gain so much cause of all the fiber. fiber is love fiber is life)

weight lifting and overall strength exercises (bulking up is usually hard af. not only will you look lean and toned but muscle burns a lot of calories so you will burn even on your rest days)

dont be scared of fats. they might be high cal but weight loss/gain isnt just physics and calories in calories out - its biology. hormones babey! high carb low fat diet makes your insulin and leptin go haywire. fats are less dangerous and your cells need them to regenerate!

its better to fast once in a while than to restrict. you will lose more fat and you will keep your muscle. restricting may make you lose muscle and muscle is your friend when it comes to burning fat!

72 hours fast is absolute maximum. after that you may start burning muscle

exercising while fasting turns you into a fat burning machine. dont push yourself too hard though! be reasonable and know your limits

[ilostmynamewithmyhappiness]

some tricks i use

> chamomile tea helps with a bloated stomach (you can also use it as a steamer if you have a cold, just put it the in a bowl, put a towel over your head and inhale the steam for a few minutes)

> green tea boots your metabolism and keeps you awake 

> lavender tea is good for insomnia or anxiety

> instant soups can be helpful if you’re craving something savoury

> if you’re tired of drinking plain water, make it fancy with some lemon juice or mint leaves

> freeze lemon water or tea and suck on it if you’re craving something

edit: part 2 is out, also wtf thank you for all the support <3

Tips and tricks for losing weight 👇🏼

Very soon I will have lost 40lbs, and so I thought I’d share my tips and tricks for losing weight with you:

WATER!!! I can’t stress this enough. There are so many health benefits with drinking water including losing weight. Don’t have much more than 3l though, unless you exercise and sweat a lot. Too much water can make your brain swell, and we wouldn’t want that to happen 💧

Green tea. Have two cups a day, with lemon in the morning and half a spoon of honey in the evening before you go to bed. It raises your metabolism 🍵

Count your calories. Losing weight is all about burning more calories than you consume. Log everything you eat and drink into MyFitnessPal or a similar app. This helps you get an overview over the calories you consume, it helps you control your portions and that prevents you from overeating. Set a goal for your calorie amount.

Don’t go overboard with your calorie goal. Setting a limit that’s too low is very harmful to your body, and you’re setting yourself up for failure. Too much restricting will only lead to a binge. Personally I feel most comfortable between 500-800, no more than 1200 (on Saturdays and on special occasions) and no less than 400.

Vary your calories. If you eat the same amount everyday, your body gets used to it and your metabolism slows down. Instead of having 600kcals everyday, have 400, then 600, then 900, then 500. You get the drift.

Don’t drink your calories. Juice, soda and energy drinks have lots of sugar with turns into fat in your liver. This includes diet soda! ❌

Chug a glass of water or 2 before eating, you’ll feel full faster.

Use smaller plates when eating to trick your brain to think that you’re eating more and get full faster.

Eat slowly and chew a lot. Your brain doesn’t register that you’re full until 20 minutes into the meal, so if you gobble it down, you’re much more likely to overeat.

Eat lots of vegetables and food high on protein and fiber (fish, chicken, brown rice etc.)

Try to stay away as much as possible from foods with a lot of sugar and fat.

Treat yourself - but in moderation. It’s okay to have a small chocolate Saturday evening. If you’re being too harsh on yourself, you’ll eventually crack 🍫

Fast for at least 16 hours everyday. I don’t allow myself to eat after 7pm or before 11am. Intermittent fasting makes your body burn fat.

Weight lifting. Lifting weights is great when it comes to weight loss as increased muscle mass makes your body burn more fat when you’re resting. Relax - it won’t make you look like a bodybuilder. We don’t eat enough to look like that anyways 🏋️‍♀️

Weigh yourself once a week. Your weight will fluctuate, so weighing yourself too often will make you unmotivated.

Make a thinspo collage and put it up on your wall. Also put motivating pics as backgrounds on your phone and computer to keep you focused.

Look up the celebrities you admire on healthyceleb.com to check their weight. You’ll work for being like them.

Look at thinspo and build a blog you’re proud of to motivate you.

Take pictures of yourself to see progress.

Lastly: PATIENCE. Weight loss takes time. It will take 4 weeks for you to notice your body’s changing, 8 weeks for your friends and family and 12 weeks for the rest of the world. It took me 4-5 months to get here, and I’m still a long way from where I want to be. Don’t give up, keep pushing. You’ll get there ✨

How to Start Running

Cardio is a fantastic form of exercise for overall health and weight loss, it’s super easy to do no matter where you are, and it gets you up and moving in the fresh air. The following tips are all things my father had me do when I was getting into running, and as a competitive triathlete and Ironman, he knows what’s up.

Start at your level. The first few runs always suck, but when you push too hard they’re even worse and can be discouraging. There is no shame in starting slow!

To start off, do run-walks 2 to 3 times per week, with each run totally around 10 minutes to start and increasing your total time every week. Run-walks are effective exercise and burn calories, but they also help manage your heart rate as your body adjusts to running. This allows you to safely and effectively build up endurance and strength when you are unaccustomed to heavy cardio.

Begin with a 30 second run and 1 minute walk. Repeat as many times as you can during each workout (preferably totally around 10 minutes to start off) and perform these workouts for at least a week before progressing your total time or the ratio of running to walking.

Progress to a 1 minute run and 1 minute walk, then a 2 minute run and 1 minute walk, then a 3 minute run and so on, increasing the run time every few workouts and running a longer total time each week.

Once you can comfortably reach 2-3 miles with the run-walk, transition into just running. You should stick with the run-walk for at least a month before making this transition if you have no prior running experience. Once you make the switch, your overall workout times and distance will shorten, which is to be expected. These workouts will also be harder than the run-walk, but don’t be discouraged. You’ll soon adjust and continue to improve.

Now you’re running! Keep running a few times a week, and as your endurance builds, you’ll be able to go faster and further!

I’m so proud of you for putting in the work to get the lifestyle and body you want! Running is a fantastic exercise that’s relatively quick and easy, and it’s a great supplement to other workouts, especially given the closing of gyms due to COVID. Just keep at it, and after a few weeks you’ll grow to love it!

FASTEST WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT 🏃🏼‍♀️💪🏼

***In my opinion!

I set specific goals for my weight loss such as wanting a 32-22-32 body ratio (started at 32-28-34), so I knew I needed to shrink my waist and tone up my glutes while losing weight and body fat %. This workout / diet regimen might not work for everyone but for me I saw the fastest results I’ve ever seen by following this!!

Diet: ADF - Alternative Day Fasting

I won’t give you specific calories to eat on your eating days because that’s completely up to you but make sure to completely fast on the fasting days.

Setting up a window of time to eat is also good, the 16:8 or 23:1 ratio’s are very popular. Personally, I use the app Zero and fast for 48 hours before having one meal. (Meaning I eat at 5PM on Monday and my next meal isn’t until 5pm on Wednesday).

Research found that ADF is much more efficient than restricting daily caloric intake, and it begins autophagy in your body which is extremely important to weight loss. Without ADF, autophagy cannot start.

Workout:

Eating days: Light cardio followed by heavy lifting

Fasting days: HIIT followed by yoga

It’s essential you combine all four of these workouts into your regimen because of their different outcomes in terms of weight loss. The light cardio will burn calories during the workout, while heavy lifting makes your body burn calories for hours (even days) after the workout, and overtime boosts your metabolism. HIIT is key to losing body fat and overall tone, and yoga helps tighten skin and increase flexibility to make the other three workouts easier.

Foods:

This part is tricky but by far the most important step to finally achieving your dream body. Focus your body on getting high protein, moderate fat, and low carb. If you enjoy keto then continue with that, but if you’re not good about keeping a specific diet, that’s okay. Try to eat only lean proteins and low carb veggies. There are hundreds of meal plans that follow this diet because it’s become so popular. Try to limit your fruit intake to only a small amount every week, and do your best to completely cut out grains or processed foods.

Best of luck to everyone and remember this is only what helped me and is helping me become the fittest I’ve ever been, so I hope I helped in any way ❤️

DIET TIPS 💕🥰🍵☕️

COFFEE/TEA is your best friend. When you’re feeling tempted to eat more than the calorie limit make yourself cups and cups of tea. I use creamers with my coffee and they’re only 15 cal per tbsp so I can drink as much as I want before getting worried about it effecting my calorie intake

LIGHT EXERCISE IS KEY. You might feel tempted to start going hard at the gym or running but it’s all about moderation. Going too hard in the beginning will only set you up for failure because your body will inevitably become weaker throughout the diet and you may lose motivation for both the workouts and diet. P.S., do facial, jawline, collarbone, and neck exercises everyday because you won’t get tired out and your jawline will be POPPIN

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. This might be the most important one. It’s hard to tell cravings and hunger apart but after dieting for 5-7 days you’ll probably be able to tell. If you wake up nauseous, shaking, with a bad headache, or overall sick, you need to listen to your body because those mean true hunger. If you’re unsure, drink a ton of water and see how you feel

WATER. Speaking of that, you need to understand how important water is. You can’t be dehydrated at a time like this. Always, and I mean ALWAYS, carry water with you and make sure to start a habit of taking sips every few minutes, your face will be the first to lose weight this way

EGG WHITES ARE YOUR BEST FRIEND. (Ignore this if you are vegan 💕) A normal egg is 70 calories. Without the yolk, an egg white is ONLY 17 calories. If you are on an extremely strict calorie limit but feel sick or fatigued, eat some egg whites. Not only are they a pure source of protein and low carbs (Hi keto friends!) but they do a very good job of filling you up and helping sickness symptoms go away! Unless you are sick then please go to a doctor <3

JOURNAL EVERYTHING. Everything. Make it a habit. Don’t get out of bed in the morning until you journal and don’t go to sleep until you journal. It can be anything, from random thoughts on your mind to a food journal– or both. I personally like to make a calendar for each month and put the number of calories for each day in the corner to keep me in check. I also keep all my weight/measurements stats in the journal. After about a few weeks of journaling, you will be SO motivated and proud of your dieting by reading your entries from the first days of a diet, I promise.

These are just some tips I’m currently relying on to get me through the ABC Diet, and they are making a huge difference.

Just a reminder I do not promote eating disorders in anyway and if anyone has concerns or just needs someone to talk to, my dms are ALWAYS open.

Stay safe everyone 👋🏼💕
