you could become the girl at the beach, with long slim legs and collarbones holding tiny pools of water.
you could be the girl wearing size 00 denim shorts, held up by a belt, wearing a strappy crop top that rides up, exposing a flat stomach and hourglass waist
you could be the girl with sweat sitting on your face like a radiant glow. who needs contour when your cheekbones could cut a bitch all on their own?
you could be the recipent of the inevitable post-quarantine compliments: “wow, you look amazing!” “have you lost weight?” “i’m so jealous of you!” “your body is actually goals”
you could be happy.
or…
you could become the girl at the beach, wearing a t-shirt and athletic shorts to cover up as much as she can, cowering in the shade underneath her umbrella, afraid of being judged.
you could be the girl wearing leggings on a 90 degree day so as not to expose your fat thighs, watching as a girl in a cute strappy crop top and denim shorts laughs and jokes with her friends.
you could be the girl who sits inside, too self-conscious to leave the house and sweat off your makeup.
you could be an onlooker as people shower your friends with compliments, giving forced smiles and praise, while wanting to curl up and cry on the inside.
you could be the girl regretting everything.
the choice, as always, is yours.
so i’m trying to teach myself that food is not for pleasure, only for energy, and i shouldn’t reward myself with food. what other ways can i reward myself after not binging for a while or completing a fast?
i was 123 lbs a year ago.
i am now 2.5 inches taller, and at the same weight. this feels euphoric :)
i’ve officially lost 10 lbs! 20 more to go

me: gets slightly angery because of someone
my mind: well guess what?? i’m gonna starve myself now and it’s ur fault >:)
i wanna just starve myself to death but i’m not skinny enough to die yet.
I’m so ready to lose all my extra fat so I can start gaining even more muscle. The only thing standing in my way of being as perfect as I want to be is myself.
I can do this!
drop the eat less subliminal link?👁👄👁?

My boyfriend is going to take me to his place for the rest of the month so I can't fast for an extended period of time so I'm going to attempt the Fix it Fast diet. I always wondered if it actually works and now I'm going to find out. If I eat more than intend I'll have to exercise it off or the day is a fail.
Idk my CW but I'll keep you updated ❤ wish me luck✨ Feel free to send meanspo and sweetspo cause I'll probably need it
