i always see these girls and some guys around me so unhappy with the way they look. some of them go on these terrible diets and they just constantly have negative thoughts about themselves. i know what that’s like, so i’m not judging…because that’s really a mind set you get stuck into.
when i was anorexic, i always just told myself i wasn’t good enough, that i was too fat. when i weighed myself i would lose weight, but i would always think “okay, that’s good, but i need to lose more, because i don’t look good yet.” i would say horrible, negative thoughts to my body, in fact i hated my body it was disgusting to me and i was just constantly disappoint. i was losing weight, but i couldn’t see it.
now that i’m living a healthy, more positive lifestyle i realize, after having a complete change in life style that if you can’t love your body now, how can you expect to love your body later when you lose weight. you will always be disappointed.
i find now that i’m positive i’m so much happy and i don’t worry as much…you don’t put as much stress on yourself to look a certain way…you still need discipline..but it’s more like positive thoughts, positive lifestyle. you need this first before you even thinking of changing anything else…
trust me on this one, it’s hard to do it, but it is honestly life changing. positivity is the thing you need the most.
used-bruised-cut-abused asked: - You & I are not only the smae age, but the same weight. It's really hard to get the weight off, I'll admit. I feel like I'm running but going nowhere... I love your blog, stay strong! :) XOXO
i know how you feel, when you try so hard and nothing happens..
but i decided to stop worrying about it and be happy…i chose a healthy lifestyle and when ever it gets me down i just think i’m working on it and eventually it’s going to come off. little by little, but i’ll get there in the end. positive thoughts are what you need most. if you eat healthy and exercise then i promise it will come off. don’t starve yourself or say you wont eat then or you can’t eat that…eat whenever you want just make sure that you’re filling yourself with healthy food that your body needs instead of unhealthy food that your body finds useless and will store as fat. you know what i mean? don’t worry, it’s difficult to watch as nothing is happening…or as you think that nothing is happening but eventually you’ll see a change. if you need support or anything i am always happy to talk:)

arena-mar asked: can i ask you and can you tell me how did you get so fit? it's my grad year and i only have 3 months, i already lost 15lbs last month but i still want to get down a few more pounds. PLEASE HELP ME!
Losing that much in a month can’t be good. You want to focus on losing slowly. And I know the whole I don’t have time thing because I went through it… And it wasnt until I hit rock bottom after living through that unhealthy lifestyle that I wanted to change. Cause if you lose weight too quickly and unhealthily then you’re going to gain It back quickly. It’s harder to do it slowly but the results last for longer because you develop a healthy lifestyle and training routine that becomes your life and not a chore. If you know what I mean? The quickest, healthiest way you’re going to lose weight is eating healthy always and doing exercise. But allowing time for rest so you don’t get run down. I hope this helps. You just want a sustainable lifestyle, it will give you the best results and they will last.
