“Did you loose weight?”
“You look thinner lately!”
“I wish I had a thigh gap like yours!”
“You’re so small!”
“You look really good lately!”
“You are body goals!”
“I wish I was thin like you.”
“I wish I had your body!”
“Didn’t you use to be fat?”
“I’m jealous of your weight!”
“You’re the skinny friend.”
“You lost weight! You look great!”
can’t wait to hear this 😻
Flat belly, skinny thighs,
Very easy on the eyes.
Knees together, thighs apart
Figure that could break your heart.
Slim, skinny, small, petite
Like a feather on her feet.
Tiny waist, collar bones
Thinspo filling up her phone.
Knee socks, tiny dress
Hair up in a sexy mess.
This is ana, I know her well
She’s the one to whom I dwell.

Please don’t eat. PLEASE don’t eat. I know you think you don’t care right now. But you will. Look at all those clothes you want to buy when you’re skinny. Don’t you want to have those thin thighs and a small waist? Don’t you want to be delicate? Please don’t eat, honey. You can do this. You don’t need food. You’ll be okay. Just get through the day, and you can eat tomorrow. PLEASE look at thinspo, try as hard as you can to get back into this mindset. You can do this. You WILL be skinny.
So I had a dream that I had met my Ultimate Goal Weight, it was so beautiful I cried when I woke up. This is how it happened, its kinda long.
My mom is literally thinspo at home, all day, every day, 365 days a year. 5'8, size 0, thigh never touch even when sitting, D boobs, tiny waist, and size 6 in rings. I use to always be her size too until puberty hit and my depression kicked in. I just ate and read my books, so i got fat- 200lbs of fat. Being 5'10 I could carry it well but I was still “big”.
I went home Halloween week to see my mom because I took time off and it was her birthday. It was a chilly fall morning and I had just got out of the car from an 8 hour drive. We were hugging and everyone in the family (aunts, uncles, and cousins) gathered at my grandmother house for the day to play and eat dinner. I walked inside the house with my bags and put them in the spare bedroom of my grandmothers’ house. There was a full length mirror in the corner of the bedroom raised on its legs (It was one of those tilty mirrors). My mom walks in, in all her beautiful glory and stands next to me in the mirror, leaning her chin on my boney shoulders. It was then that I had realized my shoulders were small and my collarbones could cut glass, jutting out from my skin. It continued to dawn on me and look at the rest of my body, it was just like her- small wrists, dainty waist, thigh gap that you could fit a book though. It was beautiful, I was beautiful, I felt euphoric. I had accomplished everything I wanted in life and I could FINALLY stand confidently in the mirror next to my mom who was smiling at me. She was beaming with pride at the women I had become and so had I.
It was so palpable to me I almost forgot it wasn’t real. I know what I look like under these pounds of fleash, just like my mom. And that is what give me so much motivation, even now. I was 200lbs at 18 and obease, I dropped 60 lbs in 2 month and it wasn’t easy.
All the long nights of hunger pains so bad I felt like i was dying.
The amount of exercise I would still do even though I had beeen fasting for 3 days; I felt like my heart would be out of my chest.
The dinners I missed out on even when we went on vacation out of the country.
But, it was all worth it, every single bit of it. I loved feeling smaller every, single, day.
I got comfortable with my weight and how good it felt. People were complimenting me, asking me how I did it and I wasn’t even skinny. I was considered “average” for my weight and age. But I have decided to continue on with my weightloss transformation and become a better me.
So this is my motivational letter to myself.
I will lose that 40lbs before Halloween, and 20more lbs by Christmas to reach my UGW!!!

Pretty sure I already reblogged this but I lost it and am tagging it now.
Fact: People lie. They’ll tell you “You’re perfect the way you are.” “You don’t need to change a thing. You’re already beautiful.” “Every size is beautiful.”
They’re lying.
Fact: People treat you nicer when you’re thin. People find you attractive when you’re thin. People actually ask you out when you’re thin.
Fact: Society is nicer to skinny people. Fashion looks better on skinny people. The world is easier for skinny people.
Fact: I know this from personal experience.
When I dropped 10lbs, my brother’s best friend finally acknowledged my existence and asked me out. I said no.
When I dropped 20lbs, my ex wanted us to give it another shot. I said no.
When I dropped 30lbs, an old crush asked for my phone number. I said no.
Fact: If someone didn’t want you before, they don’t deserve you after. You’re worth more than that.
Don’t do it to please someone else. Don’t do it to make someone want you.
Do it because you deserve to be happy in your own skin. Do it because your opinion of yourself is the only one that truly matters.
Do it because you have been through so much. You have sacrificed so much and been so strong. You deserve this.
Fact: It will hurt. It will be difficult. It will take time. Anything worth having always will. But don’t give up. You can get there. You will get there.
Don’t give up. It will be worth it. I believe in you.
‘love this
Body thin and body small
Body long and body tall
Body tight and body lean
Body smooth and body clean
Waist corseted down to size
Waist so thin it will draw eyes
Thighs evaporate of weight
Arms I will no longer hate
Body thin and body small
Body best of body all
*say every night before bed and every morning as soon as you wake for best results*
Because I’m a lil tired of the typical “I want a guy to notice me”… I just want something real
When you’re thin:
~you will feel your shoulder blades trying to slice through your back like bony little wings
~your under eye circles will become magnificent, like watercolour pools showing your dedication to this skinny hell
~your waist will be so tiny, everyone will have to wrap their arms around up to the elbows to hug you
~your bony knees knock together when you sit in your seat in the classroom, it’s a little uncomfortable but your thighs are so far apart it’s like they’re estranged sisters at thanksgiving dinner
~you’re so lightheaded, that you see stars all the time- your world has turned into a fucked up planetarium
~those collar bones don’t just “hold water”- they cut glass. They are clavicles some people would die for
~the boniness of your fingers feel so good clasped in the hand of another, like a string of pearls wrapped in silk
~you stay home instead of eating out with your friends- it’s bittersweet. You draw pictures of food instead, you work out, or drink tea.
~people will be a little scared or worried around you. You won’t mean to- but your body is too fluttery for them not to feel a little unnerved
This is terrifyingly beautiful to me
