i'm perfecting my emptiness.: skinny for summer 2011 challenge.

Total lost: 19.4lbs

147 this morning yay (:

Even without working out and eating bread! not gone above 800 cals except for 1 day this week, even at the work Xmas party I resisted the deserts although I did get quite drunk!

I had to buy new work trousers about 2 weeks ago because my last ones were huge and now the ones I bought are a bit big in the waist even right after they’re washed!

2011, the year of thin. The year of feeling beautifully empty and light-headed. The year of “no thank you” and “I’ve already eaten”. The year everybody tells me I’m beautiful and skinny. The year I get my confidence back. The year I can take pictures I love; the year I become thinspo. The year I get that gap between my thighs, the year of hipbones and collarbones and a prominent ribcage. The year of beautiful long hair. The year of skinny arms and delicate wrists and thin fingers with perfect nail varnish. The year I become happy and full of life. The year of “you’ve gotten so skinny” and “I wish I was as thin as you!” The year I ask him out already! The year I smile and laugh and forget the bad things. The year of fun and excitement and socialising. 2011 will be my year. The year of thin. Just watch me.

slenderhopes-deactivated2011082 asked: Hey! You mentioned that you did a juice fast recently, what exactly did that involve? And was it hard? xo

Basically a juice fast involves taking in only fruit and vegetable juices, all raw and natural, no solids or things like coffee and soda. Juicing everything makes it easy for your body to digest and take in the nutrients without having to work and break down solids. You need to sort of work yourself into it by cutting down on solids gradually to avoid feeling like you need to eat but you can just jump straight in if you think you can handle it. Its basically like getting into a fast but you’re giving your body nutrients. You end up feeling really good and your body is allowed to detox, especially if there is build up in your digestive system and it kind of regulates itself. I would recommend it if you can get your hands on a juicer (I managed to pick up a cheap one from either lidl or aldi, if you’re from the uk they have some in store at the moment) and have time to prepare juices etc. Different fruits and vegetables are good for helping your body with different things and unlike a fast you’re not depriving yourself of anything. I read up on it and got some good juice recipes by searching google for juice fasting, there is a bunch more info online you can find.

Loss!

I’m actually really surprised!
My fridge freezer decided to break down and defrost all of my food this week so I wasn’t left with the best choices and without my car until Sunday I couldn’t do any shopping. I probably should have fasted but I didn’t really want to with work.
The other half of this week I just havnt been so active, having 4 days off but I have started the EA Sports 30 day challenge on Wii fit on top of other exercises I’ve done.

So overall I thought I’d at least stay the same with such a good week last week but yay I’m more than a stone down from my HW (:
