All these girls you reblog and swoon over are real. They made it. Your goals are reachable and I believe in you. Don’t give up on the person you aim to be.

Think about what people are going to say in three months:
“Have you lost weight?”
“You look so skinny”
“Your legs are beautiful”
“I want your body”
“What a flat stomach”
You do want to hear people say these things, so stop eating like a pig and drink your fucking glass of water.
“i take hair ties off of my wrist before i weigh myself - nature or nurture? i wonder how many calories are in toothpaste and i only feel beautiful when my stomach growls. there’s a zoo in my belly and everyone just marvels at my self control - ignoring the captivity. you see, as a young girl, the women in my family would oftentimes tell me that they wished to be my size. forgetting that, one day, i would grow up to be theirs. what a catastrophic family tradition. i drink diet coke and smoke cigarettes for dinner. i make the meals i do eat like a mad scientist - measuring everything that dares to enter this body. but, i don’t look sick.. you can’t quite see my bones and i’d like to think that means i have it under control. you see, i’m just on a “diet” i’m just “intermittent fasting” i just “want my clothes to fit better” i’m just in the “beginning stages.” i promise, if i just lose 30 more pounds, i’ll stop. i’m not shrinking - i’m being molded - i am a sculpture made from countless creators so blame them if you don’t like the art.”

Sometimes you’ll feel unmotivated by the time and weight you have left to reach your goal… It’ll most likely come in waves.
“I can do this! Just a little longer!”
To
“"This isn’t worth the pain anymore… I’m getting nowhere…”And it’ll all feel overwhelming and strange.
But above all you must realize that even the worst parts of this journey are the times of truly testing yourself. You know you want that body… And youve craved it for god knows how long… So are you going to let a couple negative thoughts keep you from it?
No.
You are STRONGER than those thoughts.
Now, prove it to yourself.
