is it just me or when my eating disorder is at its absolute worst, im being the most productive? like, my bed is made, i worked out, I brushed my teeth, my clothes are folded, but im never usually like this?
anyone else?
Whether it's a big portion or a small one, whether it's healthy food or junk food. IT DOESN'T MATTER. You will feel hungry later anyway. You will miss the taste anyway. There's no difference but the body you're earning after eating it. so choose wisely
Plan what you will eat once you break your fast, to do it safely and avoid binging, break your fast with liquid calories and easily digestible foods, like soup, oatmeal, fruit, fruit juice, toast...

most fatspo threads are actually very obese ppl, which is unhealthy and just gross, and without my ed, they still don't look that attractive. Maybe with makeup and nice clothes, whatever, but I would rather be skinny and always look like shit
A tip for edtwt: Add more caffeine and vinegar into your diet. Drinking high caffeine drinks like coffee can increase the breakdown of fat, increase your energy expenditure, and boost your metabolism by 3-12%. 1/2
โonly eat in front of people
โnever eat in private
โLOTS of sleep
โstick to your diet always, at least for that week or month, you learn how to stick to your plans
people who use any random food option closest to the thing that they ate on myfitnesspal without caring about the exact calories, scare me more than any high calorie food
1. Assess why you binge- like *really* assess. Be honest with yourself even if it sucks. Are you hungry but not giving yourself permission to eat? Bored? Stressed or emotional? This is the most important step! My personal triggers that I identified were feeling full,
โก make sure to have a goal. is there a certain piece of clothing that youโve been wanting to fit differently on you? or maybe a goal weight that u want to reach? write down that gw, try on that piece of clothing every once in a while, and keep reminding urself of that goal.
Also, feel free to be as sedentary as you want. I really don't recommend exercise while fasting at all. it's a recipe for disaster and increases the risk of you passing out
everytime I overeat or binge I always I think to myself after "if I hadn't just done that, I would be losing weight right now" like why would I substituted long term success for 10 minutes of pleasure?? anyways I think that's an important thing to remember BEFORE I overeat
โก i know this might be hard for some people, but itโs so important to follow a schedule. sometimes when weโre all over the place, i think itโs harder for some of us to stay on track and itโs more prone to stress.

OK, you don't know her either, so why are you defending her so hard? She def has a pattern of homewrecking so it's not hard to believe
@edtwtconfessing
the hardest thing about an ed is choosing recovery, everyone who has an ed knows it will be healthier to just lose weight without starving yourself but it's a mental and physical disorder, and if they don't make that choice by themselves they will just go back to old habits
As you don't get any liquids from food. Drink at least 2 l of water, and I recommend 3-4 liters of water ideally. Also, take potassium salt and don't restrict salt intake. Magnesium and calcium are good, too.
โก take pictures of your food. not only will this keep you motivated to continue eating tiny portions, but its also a great way of just documenting what you ate. your picture could even be someoneโs mealspo.
โtwice a week burn off half of your consumed calories
โdo some exercise EVERYDAY (even if it's 15mins)
โfor quick weight loss no more than 800kcal per day, and 1000 kcal for metab days
โexercise an hour after eating
Also, if you feel very weak and dizzy, break the fast, and it's not worth it to risk injury. Always have a piece of candy or juice on hand just in case
Distraction is everything. Otherwise, you'll think about food 24/7, which makes it much harder
โbe consistent with restriction. no consistency=no progress!
โlimit weight ins to once a week or once a month
โor you can take your measurements and take photos and track your progress that way
โdon't drink your calories
โMACROS ARE IMPORTANT so use your calories on protein and nutrient rich foods
โpick a week once a month where you'll only eat healthy/clean and no junk food
โ18-24h fast everyday
keto bitches will look you dead in the eye and tell you that a cheesy greasy oily eggy omelette with bacon & 2 full avocado's is better for you than a piece of bread lmao over my dead anorexic body
2. Take your fucking multivitamins! This isn't a cure-all since multivitamins aren't meant to supplement actual food but they will still help. oftentimes that desperate hunger is a sign that you're malnourished.
pain (emotional or physical), exhaustion, and boredom. So the strategies I have are based off of those triggers- I try to avoid feeling full, take painkillers when I need them or talk to a friend for emotional support, get enough sleep, and keep myself occupied.
โก thereโs this app โcausal dietingโ. this app works wonders i swear! itโs basically like an all in one dieting app; it has a personal diary, you can record your weight, and it even has a passcode so youโre the only one who can actually get into the app.
bitches will eat 1000 calories a day and say they have an eating disorder
and that is absolutely valid because your worth and validity is not based on how many calories you eat, we all equally deserve love and recovery. you are valid.
โก start keeping track of everything. start writing down what you ate and the amount calories, how much time you worked out and how many calories you burned, how much weight you lost in a week, etc.
โก try and do your best! if you really want to get back into the honeymoon phase, start over; get motivated! time doesnโt wait for anyone, so instead of going over the same routine of binging and crying, start doing things differently.
โก this might also be hard for some, but do not continuously check your scale. this one is probably a nightmare- but i promise it might work. seeing the numbers on the scale fluctuating makes us demotivated, so what you can do instead is check at the end of every week.
hot teas and coffee can be comforting and energizing. Make sure to have those!
stop fasting if your blood sugar is low or you're on the verge of fainting.
Salt is essential because it helps you retain water (yes you WANT to retain *some* water otherwise you're dehydrated-its a matter of balance) and sugar/glucose will help with low blood sugar. Also on this note of balance and hydration- don't drown yourself in water!!
