i’m somewhere between wanting a tattoo and ‘what the fuck do i want on me for the rest of my life’

I have reached 133 lbs (almost but unfortunately it has not been through the healthiest of ways. I got the flu around thanksgiving and since I have been eating less and less. I am eating when I can but my nausea and stomach problems have been getting worse at night and my anxiety keeps me from eating frequently. The disordered part of my brain is LOVING this but I really wish I could be healthier and feel better.

Body appreciation:

Dear body,

You’ve been through a lot the past year. A knee surgery, immense amounts of stress & anxiety, an undiagnosed autoimmune disease, countless medical tests/procedures, weeks of trying to exercise through pain, months of not exercising at all, muscle atrophy, adverse reactions to medications, countless “diets” to try and heal myself, and hours of tears & self-doubt.

I’m sorry for all the shit you’ve been through. Most of it isn’t my fault. Some of it is.

I want to thank you. For sticking with me. And doing what you do best: keeping me alive.

I may get frustrated with how you seem to not work properly at times (read- most of the time) but regardless I love you. And all you have endured. Through the ups and the downs. The half ironman triathlons and the surgery. The hikes & yoga classes and the trips to the doctor to find out what’s wrong with me.

I appreciate you. I love you. And regardless of what you look like, I always will.

Thank you.

Love,

Dempsey

Reminder: Losing weight only makes you lighter. It doesn’t make you kinder, smarter, more creative, more passionate, more determined, or happier.

I applaud people who get up and get dressed because I stay in my pajamas all day unless I’m going out

Stop making fitness about appearance and start making it about health, ability and knowledge.

I was always 50/50 on whether to reblog this but the last comment pushed it to like 95/5 in favor.

Well, my summerbreak came to an end and thinking about all the things that i ’ll have to do in personal/ accademic level, i felt overwhelmed! It’s true when they say that our thoughts can change our world, in a positive/ negative way, so when i found this pic about the “happy chemicals” and their effects, i couldn’t not post it with some tips on how to help our body to produce more of these neurotrasmitters. •break big goals down into little pieces, creating little finish-lines,releases dopamine. •gratitude practices and some daily sun exposure helps with serotonine. •a diet rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fish helps to rise acetylcholine levels. •daily workouts of 20-30min stimulates production of norepinephrine. I’m sorry for the long post, hope it can be helpful. ☺✌ #studyblr #medblr #medstudent #medschool
