Thanks to Oath of Ana Website I have new tips to add:
* U all know and love that motivation that u have when u start a new diet, but h8 it when it starts 2 fade after about a week. 2 overcome this problem, I design a new diet whenever I start 2 falter @ da old 1. This means that I have a massive motivation boost, right when I need it.
* I find rings very uncomfortable, which means that I am constantly changin it from finger 2 finger. I bought a ring which is my anorexia ring, I call it my "ring of virtue". Every time that I move it around or feel it on me, which is almost constant, it reminds me not 2 eat. Whateva jewelry u find most uncomfortable - wear it. It's a gr8 reminder! Just remember 2 take it off and place it in front of u wheneva u eat so as not to contaminate it or create n e connections in ur mind between da ring and food, or else da reminder wont work.
* If ur family r naggin u bout not eatin, then casually leave "evidence" of u "eatin" around da house ie, tippin crumbs from da toaster onto da plate, getting wrappers from da street of things that no 1 else in ur house likes so "they know U 8 it", leavin dirtied pans on da stove ( from a meal u cooked but didn't eat ). Leavin things on da floor means they'll moan @ u, so they'll remember it.
* When u reduce the amount u eat significantly, ur body will still b expectin 2 get ur normal amount 4 a few days and will therefore produce a lot more stomach acid than u need, this will hurt like fuck but an indigestion tablet should help a lot. And remember it will go in a few days
* Try to avoid being in da house at meal times. Join evening clubs near ur school/college/work etc so that u can say its not worth comin home in the time between work and the club, and say ull eat out. Or say ur doing something that is commonly associated with food ie. Bowlin and eatin @ da venue or the cinema and eatin loadza sweets. These things raise far less suspicion than conviniently being out wiv ur friends every dinner time. It doesn't matter if u don't actually do da things u say, just go and walk the street and don't eat.
* Go 2 a friends @ 11 or 5 oclock so when they offer u lunch/dinner, u can say u had a huge early breakfast/lunch and cant eat n e thing else. Instead eat an apple on the journey from home to there.
* Spend as much time as u can on pro-ana sites. This will greatly boost ur motivation.
* Exercise when u can, as much as u can, as long as u can, as hard as u can. U need 2 burn those calories.
* Take calcium and vitamin tablets. This will prevent the risk of osteoporosis and prevent ur hair from falling out in big clumps
* Don't eva rely laxatives. Not only r they only 10-15% effective @ calorie loss but they will make u feel far more hungry than u normally would so ull probably end up over eating again. Only take them if it is an emergency after a binge.
* A perfect anorexic would neva break a diet rule, but come on, we cant all be perfect all of the time, so if the worst happens and u eat loadz then puke it up and use laxatives but remember that scientific studies have shown the effectivness of self-induced vomiting 2 b only 50%, which means that even when u take laxatives after pukin u r still left with 45% of the calories u consumed
* Make wot I call a diet motivation pad, and others call a pro-ana journal. Cut out inspiring pictures and articles and make collages of food. Put a list of calories in food and lost from exercise.write quotes and poems. It will be like ur own lil website in a book.
* Always remember that food is always one of the following;
- high in calories and will make u fat
- low in calories but will tempt u 2 eat the above
* work out ur RMR (restin metabolic rate). This is wot ur body would use everyday 4 ur heart beat, breathing, keepin warm etc. to do this multiply ur weight in pounds by 13.
* Ur body burns more calories if u don't wear too many clothes as it has 2 work hard 2 keep warm. Don't wear too few either though or ur circulation will b impaired causin ur metabolism 2 go back down again
* If u really feel u need da flavour of that food in ur mouth, then chew all of the flavour from it but spit it back out again. Remember that this will make ur calorie intake low but not zero because ur salive absorbs some calories and ull get sum caught on ur teeth too.
* Drink lots of water or diet fizzy drinks to stop u from getting paralysing hunger
* Put activity into ur life
- Use stairs not lifts
- Walk don't drive>
- If its so far that u have to get the bus, get off a couple of stops early
- Fidget all day
* When ur hungry, don't think about discomfort, think about ur fat stores dissolving with every breath u take or every action u make
* Eat vicariously. This means watchin other people eat, smellin used wrappers, chewing and spittin out food, lookin @ nutritional info, generally doing n e thing as a substitute for normal traditional eating
* Find a buddy and compete
* Eat only because u av 2 and not because u want 2.
* Put "don't eat " as the welcome message on ur phone, or write it in big red letters on ur thighs so ull c it when u use da bog, or n e where else that is useful 2 u
* Clean ur teeth when ur tempted 2 eat so that u cant even enjoy the taste of food ans wont eat it.
* If ur desperate do this, iv only done it a few times as it really is horrible, cut up ur tongue and gums with razor blades so that it is too painful 2 eat.
*if you are enjoying the feeling of not feeling so painfully hungry just for a while when you have just eaten, then do exercise as soon as you have eaten, this will defer blood circulation from your stomach to your muscles so that your food will not be digested and your stomach will still stay satisfied, as soon as you stop exercising your body will start to digest the food again but by then you can have worked off all of it's calorie content and will have enjoyed a full belly for a while.
* ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT ANA IS UR GODDESS, UR MASTER, UR GUIDANCE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY UR BEST FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!!
