My whole life I have thought that the way to get my shit together was by hating myself so much that I couldn’t take it anymore and I HAD to change. But it hasn’t worked so far, it’s just made everything worse. Still, I’m scared that accepting my faults means that I will get complacent and stuck and that I won’t be able to change them. Then I watched this video, and it made sense to me. It will take a long time to change years of negative thinking, but I feel like watching this once a day will help.
I wanna be someone else’s thinspo.
I would love for someone to look at me and say DAMN. I want HER body.

Keep Calm and think of your UGW
Day Three of ‘Doing something differently’.
Wow, guys. I am so sick. All I had in my system was water, and I just kept puking all through class. I slept for 3 hours and I feel a little better now, so I ordered some (admittedly unhealthy) lasagna, but it’ll be okay because I’m not going to be eating much more, hahaha.
We’ll see how it goes.
Edit: Just weighed in, and I lost another 1.5lbs! I’ve lost 4 lbs total since I decided to make a change!!! This quick burst of results is really encouraging.
Weighed in today!
I lost almost 2 and a half pounds!!!! Just from a couple of days of healthy eating and denying my night cravings/candy cravings!
This makes me feel like the weight gain I’ve suffered the past few weeks isn’t permanent :)
Day One of ‘Doing something differently’.
Well, I got a Moleskine large daily planner:
to function as my weight loss/wellness journal. It’s got the times written on it so I can track what I ate when, when I exercised, and how much water I drank. It feels good so far…I can’t use MFP, I’ve found that it just replaced my bulimia (I’m a non-purging bulimic, btw) and it made me feel healthier, but I was obsessed with it and used to ask it permission before eating and lie to it, and that wasn’t healthy. So it’s a nice alternative to My Fitness Pal and it lets me be aware and accountable for what I’m eating without counting calories obsessively.
Well, I think I need to do something different.
I’ve gained all my weight back. All. Of. It. I am actually fatter than I was when I started dieting. It’s too bad that this is a regular occurrence for me. I wish I could just get liposuction and make this easier, but obviously I can’t afford that, and my parents would never pay for it.
I’ve been asking for ten whole years, and my mother still acts shocked every time I ask, like it’s something new. I don’t understand why she doesn’t understand. She can just starve and the weight will fall off. She just “doesn’t eat on Tuesdays” and that’s just okay. But me? I get hungry. It’s super upsetting.
I guess I need to start cooking, stop ordering in, and start taking control of my life. I know I need to exercise, but it just seems like such a gargantuan task because I have to lose 20-25lbs by September, and get my pointe work up to speed if I ever want to wear a tutu ever in my life. My time is dwindling, and it fucking hurts that I honestly don’t know if I can accomplish my goal since 7th grade.
I’m scared.
