Books and Food

  So. Today I would say I did better than yesterday... although I didn't stick to purely fruits and veggies. Rawr. I ate one apple with lemon juice because I hate when they get all mushy and gross after you cut them up. Then when I got home my dad was being all weird and kept telling me to eat my dinner and wouldn't stop nagging! Rawr again. So I ate it and it was about a half cup of brown rice, a piece of pork and some lettuce. Not so bad but still not what I said I was going to have.
   
  Today I woke up with a sore ankle and talked to my ballet teacher about it. I'm supposed to ice it and stretch it tonight....but this is really annoying because I was fine yesterday and it just came out of nowhere.

  Anywho. Yesterday I went to the library and they FINALLY had the book I requested in SEPTEMBER!! I is The Perks of Being a Wallflower if you were wondering. The movie just came out and I wanted to read the book first for once XD That's probably why so many people requested it.... duh. More good news! I have a four day weekend starting Friday for Presidents day. I WILL fast. It is much easier not to eat when I don't have to concentrate for school so I shall take advantage :)
  Good luck to all!! It's never to late to start people!
Stay Strong <3 Queue thinspo...kehehehe....

Motivation!

  Hey.... so first day of the fast went FANtastic. Didn't eat a single crumb and only had green tea and water. However...uhhh, well today I kinda crumbled and ate pizza and crackers. I know, I know. Never end a fast with a binge but I was so weak and shaky and I started doubting myself and questioning why I was even doing this in the first place. Of course now that I have eaten and have my head back on straight I regret it but oh well, I will do better tomorrow. Food plans for the next three days are exclusively fruits and veggies to give me strength for my two hour long ballet classes.

  On a brighter note, I beat my record time of fasting which was previously 36 hours without food. This time I managed about 43 hours until I went into a weird delirious state and ate evil carbs D: I seriously think I am addicted to bread and chips and other generally unhealthy foods and maybe I will go on a non-carb diet to refresh my taste buds.Yes. I should really do that before they completely rule my brain.

  I have almost finished the book Wintergirls, and so far I really like it and would recommend it to the readers of this blog...although I'm not sure if there are any at this point.... XD On Sunday I made a list of things I could do instead of eating and they really seemed to help and kept me busy for the majority of the day....I still need to find a way to refrain from food once I really get desperate because that is my flaw. So her are the distractions I came up with.... there are probably plenty more on the internet but here is my contribution:

  • Paint Nails
  • Shower (if you haven't already... and take your time!)
  • Laundry (Make a goal to complete all of the laundry you are responsible for)
  • Read (Wintergirls?)
  • Jumping Jacks (I like to do them while watching thinspo. Much more motivating)
  • Clean! (Your room, your kitchen, your house... etc.)
  • Draw/Paint/Make art
  • Do homework/Any paperwork 
  • Brush/Floss teeth 
  • At home spa (face mask, hair mask, soothing bath etc.)
  • Exercise
  • Drink water and green tea!!
  • Take a Nap (gives you energy if you are fasting)
  • Watch thinspo (don't forget why you are doing this. It is possible!!!)
  I'll try and post tomorrow or the next day. Hope this was helpful! Stay away from that food!!

Welcome!

   Hey, so because this is my first post I should probably say a little bit about myself. Cali isn't my real name... I can't risk someone I know finding this and realizing it's me so I looked around on this baby name site and found Cali XD It means "beautiful" I think, so that's cool I guess...Anywho. Today I am starting a water and green tea fast because I am just so dang tired of eating and then feeling like crap. I am going to fast for today (Sunday) and tomorrow and then Tues - Thurs only eat fruits and veggies because I have ballet classes those days and I need something to give me energy. Then back to water and green tea Fri - Mon. So stoked for my four day weekend! Some things I like to do are: read, draw, write, paint, watch thinspo and do ballet. Speaking of ballet, my teacher told me I might be able to start pointe work in the fall (I've only been taking ballet since last February and usually it takes two-three years before pointe). SO excited :)

  My inspiration for this blog was probably due to my sudden addiction to reading other thinspo blogs such as (Size) Zero Intentions which I read almost everyday now. I also started reading a book called Wintergirls because I heard it was good and someone posted it online for easy access :)
 
  I'll keep this blog updated on my progress at least every other day and tell you how my fast is going :)
Good luck to all and STAY STRONG <3
                                                     Yay for thinspo!
