{ super long chapter hope you enjoy}
you can distract from eating doing the following things. [some things maybe repeated sorry ]
keep a journal:
no i dont mean an online book. i mean invest in a notepad or planner or even a notebook. have a little something special so you can write honestly to it. make it your therapist.
now the next few ones are gonna be pretty self explanatory so i wont make comments.
• brush teeth
• brush hair
• wash face
• moisturize face
• play with makeup
• organize closet ( i recommend color coded, takes more time and focus)
• fold laundry
• tidy up ( ur room, urself, drawers...)
• learn lyrics to a new song
• find a new artist ( some new ones i found: Grandson, Weathers, Wallows [reminds me of 1975] you me at six, taking back sunday, make out...)
• look trough ur wardrobe and make cute outfits
• look at thinspo ( super good ones on
Tumblr)• practice walking gracefully ( there is google thingy for that if you want)
• make a meal plan ( if u eat the same thing you will get tired)
• watch youtube (i find story time videos super time consuming)
• do some stretches/ go for a walk
• take up a new hobby. (scrapbooking, singing, songwriting, learn in instrument...)
• rearrange your room ( i do this all the time tbh)
• take a nap
•read a new wattpad book ( maybe go outside the fan fic realm?)
• post. i know i basically said this already but do it on other social media too
• redecorate your room ( make it cutesy you can find inspiration on pintrest, tumblr...)
• doodle
• make a list of reasons you want to be skinny ( best if on paper)
• make a to do list ( usually super fun and you can use ur time doing these)
• brushyourteeth i know i said this before so here have a reason.
° bc when u stop esting ur breath will stink more often
° clean teeth
° less chance of infection/ cavity• organize your phone/laptop( new folder names, diff aesthetic change wallpaper )
• avoid your kitchen/ pantry!!!!
• plan what to eat the next day ( 30% more likely to not over eat)
• plain black coffee no sugar or things added ( will make u not want to eat/ super low cal count )
• if u must eat, do it in your room. chew and spit ( usually you will only get 50% of the actual calories )
• sit straight ( it actually burns calories. i didnt know that)
• dress down, more cals are burnt trying to keep you warm if ur cold
• lack of sleep simulates appetite but burns tons of calories
• drink COLD water, it takes cals for ur body to warm the water up .
so next chapter are some quotes that kept me going while i was fasting.
