hi! iâm mars, and iâm 18 about to graduate and start college in the fall. iâm gonna study illustration, but iâve also played a string instrument for many years and love music.
my fav genres are r&b and classicalđbut i like modern stuff too! i love clothes, drawing, and reading.
iâve had an 3d for a little over a year now, but i tried to p in my freshman year. iâve always struggled with my self image, but itâs only gotten worse as iâve gotten older..

i had to look up what these meantđđ iâm new to tumblr
i jus started birf control, and oh god im eating so mich. but im at the point rn where im really really hating food again, bcs my stomach just hurts so much. i have meds for hunger headaches, but i really hate being full and in pain and holding my fat stomach while trying to sleep. so im hoping ill get back on trackâŚ
iâm at really low point rn. just mega pressed and stressed. iâve always been bad at being happy, but itâs worse rn. idk.
good news tho! i got my own place, and can therefore focus on self deprecation more! i wanna try meal prep for real, and just make and eat small portions. itâs gonna take a bit for me to fully settle and get everything i need, im not fully moved in yet, but im excited nonethelessâŚ
idk this is all i have rn. iâm at a constant low and i am only getting lower. i feel so lonely, but being like this is something u can only do successfully if u are alone. so this is what i deserve. yeah.
this is coming from someone who used to not be able to stop a binge no matter what. since early june of this year, i've been fasting for 23 hours straight with a one hour window where i have a single meal. i know how it feels to spend hours looking for tips and tricks, only to read the first few and immediately know it won't work for you, so i hope this helps. :)
Sleep as late into the day as possible: I like to use my bed rotting to my advantage. On the weekends or breaks, I usually sleep in until noon or later. By then, the only thing on my mind is getting up and starting my day, not breakfast or lunch. I saw a post a few days ago where someone trained their brain into thinking hungry=tired, so they took naps throughout the day. I liked that idea and thought I'd share in case you aren't able to sleep until noon. Maybe hungry could even mean it's time to get things like assignments and housework done.
Keep track of the c4l0r13s you consume (If you do end up binging): Just like on the scale, it hurts to watch those numbers go up. Maybe the more it hurts, the more it'll force you to actually try. (Only track the c4l0r13s you consume before your daily meal)
Watch 3D journey stories/analysis of characters with 3Ds: A very controversial one for the first part, I know. I find when someone is telling their story, they accidentally show their audience how they did it exactly. Maybe this is just too evil to include, but I will anyways. A similar yet less guilty-feeling option is to watch an analysis of a character with an 3D. Recently I found myself watching one on Cassie Ainsworth from Skins. Maybe this suggestion will make you spiral deeper into your d1s0rd3r, or maybe it'll make you come to your senses--but why would you want to stop? ;)
Look at the social media(s) of those you envy: Possibly another controversial one, but it works. I don't mean just looking at a stranger as th1n$p0, I mean someone you actually know. Just think for a moment, who do you truly envy in your life? They wouldn't be so superior to you once you're $k1nny, would they?
Make a list: If your family is anything like mine and often goes out to eat, it's always smart to have a pre-made list of low c4l0r13 swaps. Most of the time, I usually know where we're eating before we go, so I can just check my list. If for some reason you don't usually know where you're going, there is always some sort of "universal" dish on every menu. (Ex. salad without add-on's) This isn't really true for fast food places, so that's when the list comes in handy.
Always have the smallest portion possible: This rule goes for both eating at home or going out to eat. Always order/serve yourself the smallest portion, and always eat a single serving. Portion control is extremely important when trying to l0$3 w31ght. You can eat the healthiest food on earth and still g41n because you ate more than you needed.
Keep your mouth busy: If you're craving flavor, chew gum. If it's boredom hunger, make it a game to drink as many glasses of water as you can. You will have to take several bathroom breaks if you chose the water game, but it will be worth it if it means silencing the hunger. This option is definitely better for hands-free tasks, and I mainly use it when I'm watching something. School, work, or just completing tasks will be the best times to chew gum. This is because you're often too busy to get a new piece during these times, so the calories won't add up as fast. I'm not aware of any true zero c4l0r13 gum to recommend, so sugar-free will be the safest option. There are true zero c4l0r13 drinks with flavor, but I find that gum does a better job because you have to chew it.
Stay active: I like to walk circles around my room with music playing through my headphones. I do this on weekends or breaks, mostly because of weather, and going outside would risk people finding out about what I'm working for (Because I usually donât go out).
iâm trying to get back into this by just⌠not eating meals but eating small snacks, or not eating snacks but eating small meals. itâs visually kind of working but i donât have access to a scale rnđ
i probably wonât eat the apple until later and i probably wonât finish the smoothie. đŤđť
please im begging you if you 'eat' in your room just to throw away food, dont. get a tupperware. its cheap to get shitty plastic ones. put the food in there. give it to a homless person. a friend whos in poverty right now. someone who wants it. i know its hard and i wish you could eat the food, but if you cant, im begging you please give it to someone. when i was homeless, a girl about 14 years old saved me by giving me half a loaf of almost off bread. you could save a life, take anxiety off someones shoulders, give someone a day of not worrying. i dont care that you can starve for days, theres 12 year olds going home without eating all day bc mama cant make sandwhiches anymore. dont throw it away. you will have people in your life who cant afford food. your best friends little brother. the kid at your sewing club. something. im begging you. as a recovering anorexic, and a previous homeless man. give it to someone else. a shelter. anywhere.
im tired of the ed community making fun of people for complaining about being hungry. you are not shivering in the streets wondering where your next meal is, or if youll ever get one. your not a kid whos doing exams soon whos mama cant put food on the table as much. your not a kid who goes to every afterschool club hoping someone will give them something. do better. stop making fun of people for complaining after missing one meal. as a community we need to do better.
so, firstly i got a laptop for college. itâs a macbook pro 16â and itâs basically the first computer iâve ever owned. i had one before, but it was used and old and i couldnât even use it, it was so slowđ
iâm not rich my any means, but my grandma has a bestbuy credit card, so we got it right away, and are gonna pay installments throughout this year. itâs so beautiful i love it.
also, my dad gave me his apple watch, and itâs so accurate omg, i burn so much more cals that i was even aware of. im still gonna push, but its kinda reassuring.. gosh im so happy rn i love apple consumerismâŚ
I really fucking hate fatspo, it's not motivating it's just fucking mean. If you're sick be sick, don't involve people that want nothing to do with your bullshit. At least they can enjoy a fucking meal and not be so fucking cruel about it, you starved brain bitch. Taking other people down for the sake of your illness isn't cool and won't make you get thinner any time soon.
People die from this shit and you getting on a high horse doesn't stop the fact that anyone can drop dead from malnutrition and organ failure at any fucking weight. There's a difference between thinspo and meanspo, which people WILLINGLY participate in, and just shaming fat people that did nothing to you just makes you a bitch. Pushing other people that are overweight in this community so fucking extremely and shaming is just signing off their death certificate you God damn thoughtless table scraps
okkkk yesterday i had less than 1000cls for the first time in like forever, so i feel epicâźď¸âźď¸ i think it was around 600đ¤ˇđźââď¸đđťââď¸
it just feels good to be back on track, despite the pain of it. everybody nourish urself todayđŤ
One of the hardest things is that feeling after you do eat, or even worse binge, and you just sit there with that stuck anxiety feeling. Itâs like you canât do anything about what you just did except wait and I hate it.
some stuffâď¸writing this nice and long winded bcs personally reading these helps to distract me
i havenât been properly active on here bcs iâve disappointed myself so much!!!!!!! wow. i gained like 10 pounds right before prom, and hated myself for it. i canât help but have specific visions for how i want to look for certain events (like a concert, or field trip), it gives me something additional to look forward to. in my mind, if i look good (sk1nny), ill have much more fun.
so i hated most prom pics, and almost any pic iâve taken since then. iâm around 146lbs rn. gosh. iâm doing what i can to get back, but iâve noticed stuff.
itâs very easy to turn on my f4sting app and just not eat for a bunch of hours, but once i turn it off, im back to where iâve started. i stopped going on tmblr for a while bcs it made me feel kinda anxious/nauseous, but it helps me to curb my appetite.
iâm trying to just limit how many snacks i eat instead of meals, bcs thatâs my biggest problem. rn iâm taking meds bcs of an accident i got myself into, and i have to eat food with them to avoid feeling sick.
my system rn (itâll change bcs im almost out of meds, and thereâs no refills):
pre breakfast + pill: 50cal rice cake
breakfast: yogurt + granola ~250cal, or cereal ~250cal, or oatmeal ~350cal
âlunchâ (before my shift): an apple
break + pill: rice cake 50cal
this has kinda⌠worked..? like, for the most part, i do the stuff, but i still keep snacking. iâm so conscious of my eating habits, that i never know if im actually satisfied, so upping my portions doesnât fully work. itâs like im experimenting with how big and bloated can i make myself before my shift. and then i get home at like 9pm, and stuff my face with bullshit..
the best thing abt my job is that i have to walk around a lot, so i end up generally getting a lot of steps, even if it is slow. thatâs good, especially if i go on a walk in the morning and already pass my move goal.
i guess i just feel like im stuck bcs of the faux recovery i kinda went through. before, i was able to eat as little as possible and not think much abt it. id forgotten what it was like to be full/slightly satisfied, bcs i hadnât really known to begin with.
now that iâve stuffed my face too much, itâs so hard to cut back on cals when my biggest problem, for my whole life, has always been me prioritizing snacks over meals.
i donât have motivation to fit the standards of another person, now itâs just gotta be me. i want to have pictures taken of me and not worry about how my body looks. i want less pics of me eating, more of anything fuckin else.
also, before this mega relapse, i was so unaware and uneducated on cals. like i genuinely thought 1k was a lot. now im not even sure how itâs possible to eat less in a day. whatâs wrong with me. iâm so sick but i donât know how to make it worse anymore. gosh.
