Reason 1304385938 why the scale isn’t the only/best measure of progress. I weigh the same in both pictures but my body composition is completely different! 

[lets-do-thisss]

I didn’t think it could get any bigger 🍑🍑🍑

1. Too big and unhappy. 2. Thin, unhealthy and still feeling too big and unhappy. 3. Strong, getting stronger and the happiest I’ve ever been.

I’ve been looking through old pics to add to the ‘about me’ section of my Lifting Guide and thought I’d share a couple on here🤷🏼‍♀️ I know what it’s like to be overweight and chubby but also to be addicted to cardio, scared of food and calories and obsessed with the scale. I think that’s one of the reasons why I feel so passionate about helping people to get into and to enjoy weight lifting and exercise in general. It’s so important to look at the bigger picture, take the pressure off of yourself and to develop a healthier mindset with the whole process 🧠💪🏼

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT MAYIM BIALIK. 

FOR YEARS AS A KID AND TEEN, SHE BALANCED SCHOOL AND ACTING, NEVER ONCE LETTING HER GRADES DROP OR HER CAREER SUFFER. 

SHE GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL AT THE TOP OF HER CLASS, AND WAS ACCEPTED TO HARVARD AND YALE BUT CHOSE TO GO TO UCLA BECAUSE SHE WANTED TO STAY CLOSE TO HER FAMILY. 

SHE EARNED A BACHELORS IN NEUROSCIENCE, HEBREW STUDIES, AND JEWISH STUDIES ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

SHE THEN WENT ON TO GET HER DOCTORATE AND A Ph.D. IN NEUROSCIENCE, WHILE BALANCING AN ACTING CAREER AND MOTHERHOOD.

SHE HAS BEEN THE BUTT OF SO MANY FASHION JOKES AND ANTI-SEMETIC JOKES IN HOLLYWOOD. WHEN PEOPLE SAW HER AS AMY, THEY RIDICULED HER ONLINE. 

BUT SHE STUCK WITH IT. BECAUSE SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING PERSON AND IS HAVING NONE OF THIS “WOMEN CAN’T BE SUCCESSFUL AND SMART BULLSHIT. 

SHE IS ALSO A NOW-SINGLE MOM OF TWO BOYS. AND STILL KEEPS HER CAREERS (YES THAT’S FUCKING PLURAL) ACTIVE.

BUT YET, PEOPLE STILL HAVE THE AUDACITY TO ASK HER STUPID FUCKING SEXIST QUESTIONS THAT THEY WOULD NEVER GIVE, SAY, JIM PARSONS OR JOHNNY GALECKI. 

MAYIM BIALIK IS A FUCKING ICON.

ways to start feeling again

sit in the sun without anything to do, feel the heat of the rays hit your skin, realize that this sunlight has travelled a very long way to reach you

walk around barefoot and try to feel as much of the ground under your feet as you can, notice every rock and blade of grass

sit quietly for a while and notice the touch of breath in your nostrils, feel how the air gets cooler as you inhale and warmer as you exhale

drive around aimlessly and blast some of your favorite songs, scream/sing along to them and feel the vibrations of your favorite lyrics as they change the air in your throat and around you, feel that the music is healing you from the inside out

stay away from alcohol or drugs for a few days, try to be as aware and present as you can in every moment, stop trying to numb or dull your senses

eat a few meals without any distractions, notice every bite and taste every flavor that covers your tongue, be grateful for it all

look up at the stars and the moon, understand how small we all are and how immense the universe is, realize what a miracle everything is, let your heart swell with amazement and admiration for life itself

ok this is actually cool bc doing all of this is a technique called “mindful thinking” that is extremely useful for people with anxiety disorders and dissociation disorders and stuff!

[assrodeo]

Mindfulness helps in moments of great pain, too. By reducing panic and fear your pain feels less horrid. It’s some sort of physiological sensation.

Need a boost? Some natural antidepressants:

Turn on the lights. Having everything lit up can help boost your mood, and lamps are often used to treat SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder)

Citruses have high levels of vitamin C, which increase dopamine levels in your brain. Dopamine is one of your “feel-good" chemicals  Also, they have high levels of vitamin D, which has been shown to be lacking in people with depression.

Spinach has lots of folic acid, which helps produce serotonin in your brain, another “happy” endorphin.

Red peppers contain lots of vitamin C.

Walnuts, salmon, and mackerel all have lots of Omega-3. A lack of Omega-3 has been tied to depression.

Water. Yep, just water. 60-70% of your body is water, and when you’re dehydrated, it takes a big toll on your health- including your mental health

Dark chocolate can raise serotonin levels and has lots of natural stimulants.

Whole wheat foods have complex carbohydrates, which can increase serotonin levels.

Popcorn also has these carbohydrates that help your serotonin,

Most importantly, sleep. You know how if you don’t get enough sleep, you feel grumpy? Well, if you’re seriously lacking in snooze time, you feel depressed. Your body needs that time to recharge! Try to get at least 8 hours a night, or more if you feel groggy when you wake up.
