“the difference between your body this week and next week is what you choose to do for the next 7 days”

when making cauliflower, I cut off the little stems cause they're mid and it makes it less g so less kcals, but I still cook the stems to give them to my cats. fuckers love that shit but only cooked, good for them fellas

guys there is an awesome drink, it has like 2kcal per 100ml and it's so sweet, heavenly truly. it's like icetea or smth similar, it's in Lidl!!

what I eat in a day 17

-1400

breakfast:

+150kcal, 20g protein pudding

-100kcal workout

+200kcal cinnamon bun

dinner:

slightly unsure what this is, got it at bfs, didn't plate it myself

+700kcal, 15g protein maybe?

+20kcal almost black coffee

-130kcal workout

50 cups of tea

end: -560kcal, 35g protein

that protein intake is ass but that's fine ig

hiii hope this is okay to ask. I really like your blog because I have a similar experience (accidental recovery? Lol sort of) in that my goal is just controlled weight loss atp. I wanted to ask how you stop your stomach growling all the time and everyone noticing? I know it slows down after a while but that hasn't happened yet and people keep buying me food I have to refuse and giving me looks.

yes ofc it is!

my mum doesn't check up on me so she wouldn't know. my bf knows about the weight loss and is supportive of it (to a certain weight). I don't really spend time with anyone else. also my tummy doesn't rumble often? idk why, it's never been a rumbler, even back when I starved.

as for tips:

whenever it did decide to rumble tho, if I ate something small in the morning and then nothing it would rumble. so I guess if you're doing OMAD do the meal later in the day? like a dinner time meal, not breakfast.

also water and drinks, warm is better. they kinda fill up your stomach and you just sound like a water bottle instead lol

eating veggies is great cause they also fill you up, but are low in kcals.

and as for buying you things, I just refuse or give them to my bf. I recently got sweets for my bday and I just put them in my cupboard for a day where I have a big enough deficit, or when I'm satisfied with the weight. it works if they don't expect u to eat it right then and there.

you can try avoiding tensing your abs around people, cause sometimes my stomach rumbles even when it's full if I flex. idk why, seems random to me but u can check if it's the same for u lol

hope this helps!

bfs brother again, I asked my bf how many kcal smth had and the brother said "a shit ton, eat it, you're gonna be so fat".

I actually feel unwell and I think I should eat smth, but bro is successfully leading me away from it ToT

my bfs brother is a great motivation. he brought mcflurry for all of us and I said no I can't have that. he asked why so I said that I'm fat and can't. he said I'm crazy but that I should definitely eat so I do get fat so that he could laugh at me lol

I'm gonna assume most people listen to music on the treadmill but have y'all tried singing while looking at the lyrics? obv gonna be hard to sing when you're sprinting but even lipsyncing omg, the time literally passed SO FAST, it's a magic trick!!

yall also forget time exists when playing the Sims? fasting life hack, turn on the Sims at 10am and suddenly 24h will have passed!

my fav veggie ever is cauliflower and it's 25kcal per 100g!! it's so great to eat a big bowl of it and I literally can't fit any more food for a few hours :D

I know sugar bad blah blah but as long as I'm in deficit the weight loss is still happening!! and I don't wanna deny EVERY craving to avoid binging! self control is important but knowing when to let go is as well :)

end: -312kcal, 58g protein

what I eat in a day 1

(absolutely cannot guarantee the accuracy of my calculations ToT)

!!!DON'T REPORT, JUST BLOCK AND MOVE ON, IM PRO RECOVERY, THIS IS ALL FOR ME, MYSELF AND I!!!

rules for myself:

eat 1400kcal a day, don't starve yourself, include as much protein as you can

limit your sugar but don't get rid of it, you don't want your brain shutting off

limit snacking, opt for gum or tea

make an effort to look down on your plate when you're eating, make sure your brain is registering the meal

don't count calories from walks with friends (that's entertainment, not exercise), count calories from the treadmill, exercise and walking outside when it's only purpose is to burn kcals (running errands doesn't count)

also don't count calories from seasoning etc, it's such tiny amounts it probably cancels out with walking around the house

drink as much water as you can

remember to take thyroid medication, don't abuse it

it's ok if progress is slow, you literally take hormonal pills and have broken organs

try to sleep at least 8h a day, insomnia lowers metabolism

don't freak out over 1kg up or down, it's most likely water weight or you need to take a shit

leave your ana personality on Tumblr, being around anorexic people that don't wanna recover is miserable (if you do wanna recover I support you and I'm proud of you, ask for help!!)

if you slip up, don't give up

if tired or feeling unwell, it's okay to skip exercising that day, it's better to keep mental motivation over pushing yourself too much and quitting

get to know me!

would anyone like to help me estimate the amount I eat? I'm not the best at counting kcals and I really need to start. I'll learn but for now please help ://

(also I'm not trying to completely starve, I'd like to maintain 1400kcal a day + exercise)

print it out and hang it on your fridge 🩵 this is a great list

tips that aren't the same list from 2006

you know exactly what dumbass list I mean, and none of that shit is practical, it's giving uwu ana butterfly and we all know it

hi, I'm angel, I'm a nutrition major, and here are tips to keep yourself safe and hide your eating habits that actually make sense. this will not be in any particular order, but

avoid ketosis. i know, i know, you heard it burns fat faster! it also makes you smell like a dog rolled in sharpies and makes you stupid. i'm not kidding, you will be slow as fuck. avoid keto at all costs, carbs are better and healthier than being caught and dumb

take electrolytes and pay close attention to your potassium intake. if you neglect this, you will damage your heart and muscles and run the risk of having a heart attack. i use liquid IV because I have POTS and need the extra sodium, but that brand is also good for ED-havers because it has extra b vitamins

take ultra strength prenatal vitamins. they contain extra folate, fish oil, and dha, all of which are necessary to protect your heart and brain when you're not intaking much food.

For other supplements, I recommend Metamucil to keep your bowels going, iron, vitamin c packets (will make the iron absorb better, I personally use the +immunity ones), b-complex, calcium-magnesium-zinc, and vitamin d. Make sure the b-complex contains b-12. Feel free to send me an ask or dm me for dosages because some of these will depend on where you live geographically or what food you are eating.

find a protein shake you like. I'm a muscle milk bitch personally, but fairlife, premier, etc, are all good. make sure it isn't a meal replacement shake, and make sure it contains at least 20g of protein. these contain vitamins beyond protein that will help you stay healthy. the protein will also keep you full. i recommend using it as milk in coffee because the coffee will also suppress hunger and act as a mild laxative without harming the bowels. don't take your iron along with this, as dairy will hinder the absorption of iron.

don't take laxatives. you're going to give yourself IBD. maybe once a month as an extra cleanout you can do a little miralax, but the natural route is always better. regularly drink coffee and drink specifically senna green tea, they're both natural laxatives. the metamucil i recommend will also keep you going. if you need a bigger laxative effect, blend a whole peeled and seeded orange, a few inches of peeled fresh ginger, juice from a whole lemon, add a tsp each of cracked black pepper and turmeric, blend with coconut water until it's a thin smoothie consistency. drink that, you'll be good.

the best thing you can do for yourself is hide your behaviors behind health food gym girlie orthorexic behaviors. nobody takes orthorexia seriously and they encourage those behaviors. you can cut out whatever the hell you want if you're crunchy and healthy about it.

don't go too crazy about it. old tips would tell you to act like you loved food and it's really obvious. being obsessed with food and cooking is weird and obvious. don't talk about food constantly and make it your whole personality to try to hide, it's bizarre and one of the signs they tell parents to look out for. you have to be nonchalant. food is whatever. you like it, you have favorite meals, but you get tired of tastes quickly, you're picky about textures, you don't like it once it gets cold, etc. it's just fuel and it's meaningless to you. you eat for your health, not for pleasure.

high impact workouts like HIIT and running may not be the best idea. some studies show that high impact exercise stimulates hunger hormones in some individuals. pilates, ballet, and yoga are low impact, high results, and give a very desirable aesthetic. they're also quiet and can be done with a yoga mat and maybe a theraband.

get a job. get a hobby. join a sport. being out of your house as much as possible gives you the largest opportunity for excuses. oh my job catered lunch, oh there were snacks at practice, oh so and so brought something to the knitting circle. this can also be an opportunity to earn or save money (or swindle your mom out of cash by obtaining money for concessions at games and then only getting a diet coke)

if you control your own food, maximize your nutrition. salmon, tuna, sardines. kale, chard, spinach. beans, lentils. berries. protein pasta. pasture raised eggs. the fancy filtered fairlife milk. your body will hold out so much longer if you're keeping it fueled with proper vitamins and minerals.

track your food using cronometer - if someone sees it on your phone and asks, you have a perfect built-in excuse. oh, you don't care about the calories, but it tracks vitamin and mineral intake, and you're trying to make sure you're getting enough of those because you have, say, an iron deficiency or you're worried you're not getting enough omega-3s.

anorexic hair is really obvious. it's from malnutrition and stress. absolutely ensure you're getting enough omega-3s and other fats in your diet (avocados, eggs, oily fish, nuts like walnuts) to avoid the anorexia hair and the sallow, dry skin. this is also why i insist you take vitamin d, iron, vitamin c, a b-complex, and a pre-natal with folate and dha, those will also protect your hair and skin health. also make sure you're trimming dead ends, get a deep conditioner and/or bond repair treatment, do scalp massages, and if it does fall out, start using a mousse for volume and get a cut to maximize volume to hide it.

keep up your oral, skin, and nail health, too. these can also be obvious indicators. if you're taking the vitamins and keeping to the foods i'm recommending, it'll help, but make sure you're brushing and flossing, use the nasty brown listerine, a good dry skin lotion like curel, and a nail oil. keep your nails short if they start peeling, but if they're peeling, you need to take more vitamin d and iron, or you could have celiac disease.

there's no such thing as a broken metabolism, and you can't boost or slow down your metabolism. those are myths. the only way to make your bmr higher is to have more muscle.

extra tip: if you start fainting, tell people you have or think you have POTS. work smarter not harder.
