I owe it to myself to be consistent.

I owe it to myself to be disciplined.

I owe it to myself to stay focused.

WHAT NOBODY TELLS YOU ABOUT FASTING

For gum chewers: Nobody tells you that you will expel a storm of wind out of nowhere or whenever you drink water.

Nobody tells you that your legs will feel like literal jello if you go past 24hrs.

Nobody tells you that after a certain point you’ll have a constant headache.

Nobody tells you that your stomach will growl loud enough for a whole room of people to hear.

Nobody tells you about the pain in your ribs.

Nobody tells you that you’re going to feel like you’re going vomit the lack of anything in your stomach.

But what we do tell you, is that you’ll get used to it.

What I have learned from Intermittent/Extended fasting groups

Pink Salt helps headaches and fatigue.

magnesium helps the chest and stomach pains

And potassium helps the dizziness and heart palpitations

If you constantly crave sweets you are potassium deficient.

A B-Complex vitamin is a life saver if you have a busier life style.

One a day- vitamins can help reduce hair loss and brittle nails.

Your body can only absorb about 1 cup of water every 15 minutes. If you constantly chug water you are just going to pee a lot and flush out lingering vitamins that can help keep you healthier longer. Plus you can still end up dehydrated because you will fill your stomach and ultimately absorb less water than if you just drink it casually throughout the day.

If you do strict water fasts, after about 30 hours your body enters “atophagy” which (long term) will help with loose skin and cellulite. It taps out around 60 hours though so doing 2-3 60 hour fasts a week will get you optimum results. Make sure to eat high fat, high protein/ low carb during the re-feed or you will regain what ever you lost. Gum, diet drinks, sugar, artificial sweetener and the like will stop atophagy. Water, bone broth, herbal/green tea and black coffee are the only safe things to consume during an atophagy fast.

Walking and short (10-20 minute) Hiit sessions during a fast is more effective for fat loss than long hard workouts.

Leafy greens (espically spinach, arugula, mustard greens and kale) are very high in calcium, iron, and fiber so eat a tonne especially if you are bulimic.

I have lost 120lbs with the help of my IF/EF groups on Facebook. I have learned so much from these people and my doctor is very pleased with my progress. I started out as dangerously obese and now I’m almost a healthy weight in only 2 years. I have spent countless hours researching nutrition and though I struggle with bulimia (deptression, anxiety and BED paired with obsessive tendencies mixed with diet addiction has lead me down a bad path) I have not had many health issues associated with the disease. I do have extremely sensitive teeth and I’m addicted to laxatives but I dont have thinning hair, skin problems, intestinal issues,brittle nails, my bone density is good and my muscle ratio is healthy.

I know we are all sick but if you can make smart choices you’ll be thin before you’ll be dead. I hope people see this and can at least supplement their bodies as you become your desired aestetic/weight.

Stay safe

[skinny-inprogress-toriseup-deac]

i don’t promote ed behaviours or fasting but my words aren’t going to change anything so here’s how to stay safe

[killng2bthn]

The vitamin info in here could save your life, it’s definitely something I’m going to start doing during my fasts

[dlsax-deactivated20210118]

just a lil reminder that not hurting me is an option too... it's fun, try it

[dying-to-get-skinniest]

hey guys hypocritical as this is

please, eat something. you are more than worthy for something. If you cant, drink some water. Go take a shower. Be kind to yourself. It would be so hard to treat someone the way you treat yourself so be kind once in a while, itll help you survive. Even if you dont want to, I want you to.

Why is suicide considered selfish, but wanting someone to live on in misery so you don't have to experience sadness is not?

[goddamnanorexic]

Damn

[iceblueminc-deactivated20180408]

The older I get the more I don’t see the point in talking

[imsofatfml]

Stop.

Stop thinking of time in days or weeks. Think of it in hours, or minutes even. 

Don’t tell yourself that “You’ve already ruined today anyway, so what that point?”

You’ve only ‘ruined’ this hour, this minute. You can still succeed in the next hour. 

So don’t give up and start tomorrow for the millionth time, start again the next minute. Start again the next hour, and keep fucking going.

romanticizing mental illness is dangerous and misleading

[restroom]

Artsy depression: haunted eyes, good at art, emo hair and eyeliner on point

Actual Depression: bloodshot eyes, no longer trust themselves with pencils, has not showered in five days

Quirky OCD: organized books, clean room, color coordinated outfits

Actual OCD: Intrusive thoughts, flipping the light switch 8 times so you don’t stab your brother, picking holes in your skin

Cute eating disorders: Slim trim and beautiful, shyly refusing a second helping, dancer aesthetic

Actual eating disorders: Puffy cheeks and eroded teeth from excessive vomiting, hair growing over your freezing body and refusing to eat carrots because they’re too high in carbs

Adorable anxiety: just a smol bean, soft, must be protected from the world

Actual anxiety: crying so hard you throw up, shaking, losing sleep over a period after the “okay”

RPG PTSD: flashbacks, vietnam, u don’t know what i’ve been through kiddo

Actual PTSD: Buying your first pregnancy test at twelve, flinching at high fives, i can’t feel my hands where am I what year is it

Cartoon ADHD: look a squirrel, something shiny, fidgety loveable bufoon

Actual ADHD: rereading the same page over and over because it doesn’t make sense, hasn’t done the laundry in four months, hyperfocusing on a mushroom knowing you have work to do

stop making terrifying realities seem cute. it’s disrespectful for those of us who are actually struggling
