I’VE LOST THESE POUNDS BEFORE

“Just remember, in 20 seconds, the food will be gone. The taste will be over, and all that will be left is regret. Just like last time.”

like, i didn’t say i was ugly. i just said i was fat. DAMN.

my tips for f4st!ng <3

1. distract yourself! if you're at home i'll admit this is a little hard, but it IS very helpful :)) clean your room! do your makeup! do your nails! listen to music! make playlists! call your friends! make your bed! organize!

2. try on clothes that are too small for you! this one gets me the most, it's rlly triggering knowing that you aren't there yet (at least for me)

3. look at th!!!nsp000! i prefer looking it up on here or pinterest!

4. make lists of clothing you want to buy at your gw, if you f4st maybe you'll actually be able to fit into them one day

5. sleep!!! this one is the hardest for me lolz :p but you can't feel hungry if you're asleep :)

6. go on a walk! go walk around your neighborhood! or walk up and down your stairs! walk in circles in your room! it burns c4l0r!3s & distracts you :))

7. drink water!!! when you first wake up drink water, when you feel hungry drink water, when you feel tired drink water, when you want to quit drink water

8. stay away from the kitchen! the food in there is gross anyways & you don't need it! if you're not around food you won't want it as much!

9. dye your hair! this is usually very time consuming & will most likely take your mind off food

10. paint your nails! i know i included this earlier but i feel like it includes its own section :)) if your nails are wet you can't really eat food.

11. keep a reminder of your w3!ght! if you have a mirror in your room write your w3!ght on it, constantly remind yourself that's how much you w3!gh.

12. write your w3!ght on your hand! any time you go to grab food you'll see it and remember why you're doing this, how far you've come and how much farther you have to go.

there's def more but this is all i can think of rn! if you have any helpful tips share them in the comments <3

Benefits of intermittent fasting!

But first, the levels of it.

0-12 hours -

At 4/8 hrs all food has left the stomach, blood sugars fall and insulin is no longer produced.

At 12 hrs all food consumed has been burnt, digestive system goes to sleep, body begins healing process, HGH (human growth hormone) begins to increase, glucagon is released to replace blood sugars.

Level 1

12-18 hours -

At 14 hrs body has converted to using its stored fat for energy, HGH increases dramatically.

At 16 hrs body is ramping up fat burning.

Level 2

18-24 hrs -

At 18 hrs HGH starts to skyrocket.

At 24 hrs autophagy begins, all glycogen stores are drained, ketones are released into the blood stream.

Level 3

24-48 hrs -

At 36 hours autophagy increases by 300%

Level 4

48-54 hrs -
