okay, this is as close to a pep talk as i'll ever give. i'm only being nice cause so so so many of us are struggling right now&that kinda bums me out. anyways, a little venting first. oh sure, "big boned". bones don't jiggle, dumbass. fat people are not fun to look at most of the time. it's bad enough when they know they're fat&hate it, or even know it&accept that they're unhealthy&love their bodies anyways. but when somebody is obviously overweight&they make excuses for it? ew. at least we see room for improvement&are doing something about it. maybe we're a little extreme but most changes won't kick off with a whisper. anyhow, kudos to you for being proactive. also, i leave for colorado in 5 days.i'm really excited but also nervous...what if my sister lost more weight than i did? i doubt it, she's not that self conscious&she's pretty healthy, but what if i still look huge in comparison? fuck. maybe i'll find something that i'm not obsessive about&give my brain a chance to focus on something that doesn't matter. maybe.

&to those of you who are down, add something new to your plan. something new to focus on usually helps get me going. personally, two of my rules are 1) never ever ever get seconds, &2) never ever ever finish a whole serving. that goes for everything. you don't have to follow those. just examples. another thing that helps (if you're on the computer alot or always carry your phone) is to change your background image to our favorite thinspo. just for the day, or as long as you can get away with it. looking at someone smaller than i am always makes me just a little less hungry. besides that, you know the rest of the tips. hang in there. here are people who are skinny&happy.

or:

well some people are small&some people are....not. let's be small. we've chosen this already so let's keep it up. stay strong, lovelies.
