I feel like a universal young queer experience is knowing that you'll never actually get to be your true self until you're out of your parents house, everything before then is an extremely watered down version of yourself. And your parents think they know everything about you but you really have a whole other personality and they know absolutely nothing about you, or only what you want them to know. It even applies to your beliefs, religious or political.

Average size mannequin with average size woman.

The problem, in one picture.

[doshicryptid]

I never realized until seeing this picture that my interpretation of an average size woman has become REALLY SKEWED oh my god I wanna cry

[foreignpussy-deactivated2015062]

best picture ive reblogged in a while.

[feminismandmedia]

I’ve been struggling with my body image recently because I’ve gained a lot more weight… and this is so helpful to me because I think my image has been skewed by a lot of mannequins in stores. 

[gramjams]

Boost the fuck out of this post. The fashion industry has a lot to answer for in making women feel so shitty about their bodies. Curves are beautiful ♥️

[confessionsofadiabetic]

You know what absolutely boggles my mind? That healthy people exist. Genuinely healthy people. No mental illness, no physical illness, no chronic illness. Just healthy. What a life that must be. 

[geekandmisandry]

This fucks with my head though. There are people who get up and feel… Awake, and then they go and just… Do their adult responsibilities without feeling anxious or upset? They just return phonecalls? Answer calls from unknown numbers? Don’t procrastinate doing important things until is a huge problem that makes you cry??

That sounds fake.

DONT EAT OATS

THIS INCLUDES OATMEAL

The oats will make the fat stick to you

You won’t gain weight

HOWEVER IT WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE WEIGHT

My mom did a weight loss program and she said that if a girl was getting too thin, they would give her oats so she couldn’t lose anymore weight

PLEASE SHARE THIS

[thinspoasf]

I keep seeing this post floating around, and I honestly feel a need to comment: this is one of the big problems with pro ana. You have a fear food, and now you’re trying to spread this fear and misinformation to other people. There is NO “magic food” that will cause weight to just “stick” to you. That’s not possible. There are a lot of young and seriously ill people in this community who could be freaking out reading this post because you just ruined one of the foods they’ll actually eat. And guess what? That food happens to be a filling, nutricious, healthy option! Please, for the love of god, do NOT believe things you read like this before fact checking them.

On that note, please do not make a post about one of your fear foods and say something like “please share this” because you WILL trigger other people. Honestly, yeah, that includes those posts about not eating pizza/fries/cake/whatever. Guys, it’s never okay to encourage someone else’s illness, even if you have the same one. It’s one thing to help motivate a friend to lose weight, but it’s a completely different and damaging thing to fuel someone’s ED by encouraging them to have fear foods like this.

[dizzy-euphoria]

I reblogged the original post a few days ago cuz i was freaking out too :/

[alicesadviceblog]

Just kind of popping in to say, as someone who has studied this stuff in a school for years, this is not true. Not at all. Not in the slightest.

Oats are one of the carbohydrates that are complex and therefor, although high in calories, good for your body and weightless because it gives you more energy whilst your body is trying to break it down.

There is no food that will make weight stick to you as @thinspoasf already mentioned very well. It’s all about calories in weightloss, and by telling others to spread this you are not only spreading horribly wrong misinformation, but also causing a lot of harm.

So…I am very disappointed in you op. And I hope that you understood your mistake, learned from it and don’t repeat it. And to everyone who believed this, don’t worry it’s not true and completely fine to enjoy a bowl of oatmeal ♡

[crunchy-tummy]

Oatmeal is good as fuck and you ALL KNOW You Need That Good Fiber. People with eating disorders are at higher risk for heart disease, and oatmeal is a dope heart-healthy carbohydrate that starts your day off good as HELL.

While having a fear food is valid, it’s not necessary to hype it up as a bad food in the community. Personally, oatmeal is one of my safe foods, regardless of how heavy it feels to me, because I know it has properties that give me life.

Seeing the original post triggered a mental note in my head to throw away the oatmeal in my cupboard. You don’t know what could trigger a new behavior in someone. I love new tips. I love hearing about foods I shouldn’t eat. But that’s because I’m SICK. And it’s important to recognize that we restrict ENTIRE FOOD GROUPS from our diets because of things like Atkins.

Don’t put your fear foods on blast. Instead, put your SAFE foods on blast? Foods you enjoy, feel lite, whatever your tea is.

I’m sick of cutting foods out bro. I’m hungry. Want some OATMEAL

[occulus-boy]

Before i read the full post i almost cried bc one of my favorite foods is overnight oats 😧

[oatsandyogurtbowls-deactivated2]

oats with nut butter and fruit are 100% my safe food lol even though it’s a high calorie breakfast it helps balance out my meds and keeps me full for a very long time not to mention it helps my ed-fucked up digestive system and provides iron. oatmeal is the fucking best

[dietpopthin]

I once ate oatmeal for a month and lost ALOT so nah I won’t fear oatmeal. Gimme the oats.

[spookyscarysoul-deactivated2024]

Oatmeal is one of the only safe foods i have that’s offered at my work . it keeps me full af while Im burning calories. Not really that high cal when im on my feet and running around for 8 hours . its a lifesaver if youre an adult with an ed tbh.

[justbeskinny]

Eat Oatmeal. Its healthy. Its filling. And most importantly, oatmeal and any kind of food will not stop you loosing weight. Its all about the portions.

[skinnybluebones]

As an adult (22 they say is an adult, honestly not convinced) in this community when I read the first part I panicked as oatmeal is something I eat every morning as it fills me up and helps me get through the day and I instantly just thought about how I must be failing and going off on a tangent of dark thoughts before scrolling down and reading the rest. For everyone safety (yours included) read up on what someone says to you dont take it at face value cause that fact may or may not be true.

[clowneryncalories]

bruh omg i read the first part and freaked the fuck out bc oatmeal is literally the only actual food i will eat (voluntarily) but fr yall please dont spread misinformation abt foods especially when basically everyone knows oatmeal is a safe food for a lot of people. “ruining” it for us by scaring us w lies abt weight gain just take away one of the few foods we’re actually willing to eat stay safe

Tips & Tricks Not To Do

1. Ice baths do not burn an insane amount of calories - being cold will actually SLOW your metabolism, because your body is trying to retain heat. You burn more calories in room or hotter temperatures. Ice baths can also be dangerous because it does lower your body’s natural core temperature, and this can lead to blood clots, heart problems, and various other complications. 

2. Ignore the 100 calories workouts. Why? Because you do not burn 100 calories. There are no universal workouts that burn the exact amount of calories for everyone. Someone who is 300 pounds burns twice the amount of caloris than someone who’s 150 pounds. And honestly, the only person who burns 100 calories on those plans are people who are over 300 pounds. Even then it’s iffy. Just don’t fall for it. 

3. Hydration. Is. Key. Just upping your water intake to the levels your body needs will be enough to help jump start weightloss. It regulates the water your body needs, help’s you get rid of excess water weight, plus it helps your body maintain a majority of it’s natural processes. It can take only 3 days to die without consuming water, don’t risk it. 

4. Don’t bother with lax or diet pills. Lax will dehydrate you and only force you to lose extra water and waste weight. Diet pills have insane amounts of caffeine. Your best bet is to use cayenne pepper extract  and vitamin b complex which naturally do what diet pills are marketed to do. Not to mention, just google diet pill side effects. 

5. Do not chew and spit. It’s not a good alternative. The moment you smell food your body starts the digestive process. Now most of the time this isn’t a big deal. However, once you chew food, your stomach is producing stomach acid. Without food for your stomach to digest, you will have acid build up cause acid reflux, stomach ulcers, nausea, and various other problems. 

6. In terms of eating disorders, fasting is never a good option. While fasting can be healthy for someone who is healthy, chances are if you’re restricting your body is already battling to maintain it’s life. Our bodies are not designed to have low intakes all the time. Consult a physician before you fast. Also, do not fast when you need to operate a vehicle or any other machine. End your fast if you feel a burning sensation in your stomach or develop acid reflux. 

7. In every health case, avoid fast food. Not only is the food insanely unhealthy for you (there are healthier options at most chains if you ever need to eat out at one) but the FDA actually allows a lot of these chains to lie about their calorie count by 20%. Most food companies can do it anyways, but fast food is the most guilty.  Supersize Me actually did expand on this so watching that will give you a bit more information. 

8. A good 90% of the so called “pro-ana” tips being spread around are complete BS. While some people may find them helpful, the reality is that most people don’t. You will find what works for you naturally. 

9. The more you restrict or fast the smaller your stomach/intestines shrink. It may sound good now, but the moment you eat more than your body can naturally handle, you are at risk for stomach/intestinal ruptures since your body is no longer used to eating regular amounts. 

10. Do not eat cotton balls for the love of God. I don’t know who even came up with this idea but cotton balls can easily cause intestinal blockages that can kill you, cause massive infection, and could end up needing to be surgically removed. I’ve also seen a few people suggest tying candy to a string then pulling it back up to induce purging? You’re going to choke to death at some point with that, or tear a hole in your esophagus which, best of luck surviving that one. Seriously, don’t follow these stupid tips. 

11. Take a multivitamin. If you restrict you lose nutrients, losing nutrients lands you in a hospital, hospital finds out you have an eating disorder and forces you to eat.

In conclusion, just use your common sense and reason. If it sounds too good to be true, or if it sounds dangerous, it most likely is. Stay safe

Here’s to the Boys

Here’s to the boys who cover their stomachs when they sit down. Here’s to the boys with stretch marks. Here’s to the boys who avoid the mirrors. Here’s to the boys who skip eating. Here’s to the boys who feel small. Here’s to the boys who work so damn hard every day to like themselves. Here’s to the boys who hesitate before taking their shirt off at the swimming pool. Here’s to the boys who doubt themselves. Here’s to the boys who insist on having the lights off during sex. Here’s to the boys whose body issues are waved away by society. Here’s to the boys who have ever been told “you’d look so much hotter if…” Here’s to the boys who can finish that sentence and remember the exact time it was said to them. Here’s to the boys who hate shopping for clothes because nothing fits “just right.” Here’s to the boys. Here’s to the boys who are reading this. Here’s to the boys: you are attractive, you deserve to feel sexy, you have worth. You are wanted and loved. Here’s to you.
