Relax wild one. It’s not your job to be everything everyone needs, and you don’t have to be impressive to be loved. Stop trying so hard. Just show up … and be real with the world. That is enough.

Here are some things I’ve been doing that I’ve noticed help with my weight loss if anyone is interested.

1) I eat normally between 500 and 800 calories a day. Some days I’ll eat just breakfast and dinner. Some days I eat 3 meals. Usually 1 day during the week I’ll allow myself up to 1,000 calories. I think the inconsistentancies help keep your metabolism up and always going.

2) I do intermittent fasting. I stop eating at 6 in the evening and then don’t eat breakfast until 11 in the morning. I only eat for a few hours a day. And with fasting in the evening and night you’ll be sleeping through most of the fast.

3) I drink a ton of water, like 5 bottles a day. I also drink 2 cups of green tea. I have a large yeti cup and it keeps it hot all day so I can sip on it whenever

4) I workout between 30 minutes to an hour about 5 or 6 days a week. I usually try to do different exercises but I always include yoga with it. Yoga helps clear your mind as well as tone and burn calories.

5) Any clothes that become to big for me I immediately donate to a thrift store that way I’m forced to lose weight and not tempted to eat much or gain because I won’t have anything to wear lol.

6) Count your calories! MyFitnessPal is one of my favorite apps and helps me tremendously!

7) I’m vegan and that has helped a lot. Meats and dairy will make you very bloated and constipated. Once I stopped eating dairy products I dropped so much water weight and bloat within a week. Also beans and tofu and other vegan products are more filling for less calories

8) I don’t recommend laxatives but in some cases they do help. If you’re a naturally constipated person or take medication that causes constipation, I’d say maybe take 1 or 2 a night. I usually take 2 a night, if I don’t I won’t poop for weeks at a time. TMI, I know, but it could help even if it’s just water and waste weight.

9) I take 2 pills of biotin a day. That’s 10,000 mgs of vitamins that can help boost metabolism and also will make your hair and nails grow too.

10) I wear a waist trainer several days a week as well. It helps with weight loss and since I’ve had mine I’ve seen great results. Again it’s not for everyone but could help others who have a higher starting weight like me.

cravings masterpost

over the years, i have been taught what certain cravings mean and how i can replace them in a healthy way. so i figured, why not share it with you guys? 

if you crave chocolate…

your body needs magnesium. a quick fix for this is raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 

if you crave sweets…

your body might need some of the following: 

-chromium - have some broccoli, grapes, cheese, or chicken. 

-carbon - chow down on some fresh fruit. 

-phosphorus - chicken, eggs, legumes, or grains can help. 

-tryptophan - similar to magnesium, have some raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 

if you crave bread or toast… 

your body needs nitrogen. have some high protein foods such as fish, meat, nuts, or beans. 

if you crave fatty foods… 

your body needs calcium. broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help. 

if you crave alcohol… 

your body might need some of the following:

-protein - think seafood, dairy, or nuts. 

-avenin - chow down on some granola or oatmeal. 

-calcium - broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help.  

-potassium - bitter greens or seaweed usually do the trick. 

if you crave ice cream/shaved ice… 

your body needs iron. some suggestions are fish, greens, seaweed, or black cherries. 

if you crave burned or grilled food… 

your body needs carbon. chow down on some fresh fruits. 

if you crave soda and carbonated drinks… 

your body needs calcium.  broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help.

if you crave salty foods…

your body needs chloride. goat milk (yes i know that’s a little odd) and fish help. 

if you crave acid foods (burgers)… 

your body needs magnesium. just like chocolate, have some raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 

if you crave cool drinks (milkshakes or malts)… 

your body needs manganese. some suggestions are walnuts, pecans, almonds, pineapple, or blueberries. 

if you’re PMS-ing… 

your body needs zinc. red meat, seafood, leafy greens, and root vegetables are helpful. 

if you’re overeating… 

your body might need some of the following: 

-silicon - nuts and seeds are a quick fix. 

-tryptophan - eat some cheese, raisins, sweet potatoes, or spinach.

-tyrosine - vitamin c supplements should do the trick. 

if you crave tobacco…

your body might need some of the following: 

-silicon - nuts and seeds help, but stay away from refined starches. 

-tyrosine - vitamin c supplements or red, orange, or green fruits and veggies can help.
