Healthy Ana Tips

– drink water first thing in the morning! every! day! it cleans your system, keeps you full and helps with every part of your body. its not that hard

– occassionally drink lemon water (if you want add some ginger, cucumber and chilly pepper for a boost) but I say occasionally bc lemon water can damage your teeth

– fill up on veggies! idc what anyone says, everyone likes vegetables you just have to find the right ones and prepare them correctly. super high in fiber and essential nutrients and low in calories

– keep up on your health! skincare, exercise, vitamins, hair masks; you know the drill as well as mental health so meditation, mental health days, adjusting your way of thinking, self care and anything other that keep you balanced.

> believe it or not when youre happier you tend to lose more weight! especially if youre an emotional eater, but even if youre not, your body will always work more efficiently if its owner is feeling good

– exercise regularly but not too much. if you’re losing weight quickly or not eating enough you will lose alot of muscle. do light muscle building exercises as well as stretches to help your joints

– keep a food diary, sometimes we either over or underestimate how much we eat, it’s good to keep track so if you see yourself gaining weight you can pinpoint where you’re going wrong (try not to count calories tho if you dont already do)

– make reasonable goals. if you’re trying to go from binging everyday to fasting with the goal of losing 10 lbs in a week, I hate to break it to you, but it’s not gonna work. choose a calorie intake closer to your BMR at least to start with and have realistic weight loss expectations

– dont overdue it : whether its exercise or fasting, dont go overboard, it will always lead to failure. exercising for 3 hours one day means you’ll be too sore or too fed up to exercise the next few days. and if you fast for a week, you’ll probably end up binging. be logical and smart with your weight loss
