I just finished watching it and I’m totally watching it again. Natalie Portman was amazing! I don’t think I can put into words how great this movie is, it’s a must see (20x minimum!).
And tiny…
I think I’m gonna barf… and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
I haven’t binged or broken my fast in any way – so yay for me! I’ve got two days left and I’m gonna make it. The only thing that went ‘differently’ today is that I drank a FUCKLOAD of diet soda, which is basically the reason I think I’m about to barf... Seriously, 3 litres! But it’s low calorie (30cals in total for that little indulgence). I don’t think that counts as breaking a fast really..
Oh and I have to say that it’s thanks to these tips by Almost Skinny Vegan, that I’ve survived so far! I swear, if it wasn’t for the frozen apple juice I’ve been licking, I’d be bingeing on something. It may sound crazy, but that little bit of sugar really helps! I want to try finding some forms so I can make them into proper popsicles!
Don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’ve added some tabs:
Why is Rozy fat? – is basically an ‘about me’
The (current) Skinny Plan – is the diet I’m on currently
I’ve also changed the side bar a bit – I’ve added rewards and I’ve switched weekly goals to STATS.
Don’t have much else to say really… I’m gonna go work on a exercise plan now. I’ll post it, alongside my diet plan, as soon as I’ve finished the fast.
I’m kind of frustrated about the fast though, because this is the first time I’ve fasted and not gotten a flat stomach. Of course, I’ve never been this fat, but still. It’s only common sense that’s keeping me strong – I HAVE to lose weight. It’s not possible that I’ll be the same weight if I keep this up. But I wouldn’t be able to tell that from looking in the mirror… fucking mirror…
I’ve also been doing the opposite of what is typically Ana! Instead of buying clothes that are too small, I’ve been buying clothes that are too big! xD Not because I’m trying to grow into them (fuck that shit – HELL NO!). It’s just because:
I’m trying to keep myself happy, it seems to be the best weight loss motivation for me.
Much love to you girls!

P.S. This means 2 more days before I force myself onto the scale again!!! I don’t wanna… do I have to?… Is there actually an official phobia of scales? … just googled it, not that I can find… but there should be!!!
As you can see from my title, there is an obvious line between thinspo and sad. And ‘The Machinist’, my friends, has crossed the line into sad by far!
And I don’t mean this in a negative way, absolutely not – I really enjoyed that movie. But damn, it was sad, made me tear up. Yeah, okay Christian Bale was skinny, but it didn’t make me think: “Whoa, I want to be skinny!” it didn’t inspire me to starve. If anything, it made me think ‘This must be what it feels like to see someone you care about whither away’…
And let’s not forget it’s SUCH A WASTE of a hot actor!!!
I think this kind of reminded me not to go overboard (not that I need to worry my fat ass about that now). So before I go one, cuties, I got to say: stay safe and don’t overdo it!
Much love <3
Now onto the regular stuff…
As I was re-reading my last post, I noticed it was a week since I’ve posted… A WEEK! And what have I done? Jack shit! Yes, you heard me! Jack shit! Not Fred shit, Johnny shit or Abraham shit – Jack shit! (I know, I’m not funny… laugh anyway).
I really couldn’t bear it to post until I’d had one good day though. And today would be that day (fingers crossed, don’t want to jinx it). The last couple days I’ve been doing well until the evening, but then I’d always find some excuse to binge. NOT TODAY!
I only had tea and water today (and a sip of diet coke), so I’ve done fabulously, if I do say so myself.
Almost Skinny Vegan’s Fasting tips have been great, so I’d advise anyone who’s been on/off to check them out, they really helped me out.
I’ve made a few changes. I’m gonna wear ‘x’ number of bracelets, ‘x’ being the number of days I’m fasting. I’m allowed to take off one bracelet on the morning AFTER the fast. But I’m changing it to a 6 day fast, which coincides with the 71-goal. I should reach it. If I’m 75 right now (assuming the worst), I should will lose 4kg by Friday. And I’m making a schedule every evening or morning, because when I have free time, I obviously can’t handle it and start to eat!
And I’ve decided to measure! Just not the things you regularly measure. I’ve decided to measure my calves! It’s one of those things you never really think of (unless you’re crazy fat like me). But now that it’s getting to be boot-season and all, it’s really nasty when your boots feel tight around your calves. I measured mine and.. ugh…
41cm (FUCKIN SHIT!!! That’s 5 cm smaller than my thighs were at their lowest point. It’s bigger than some catwalk models thighs are now!!! I just tightened the measuring tape and I figure that 35cm should be a good aim.)
I’m also adding a list of rewards to the sidebar…
Responses to your lovely comments:
HarleyHeartsAna: Thanks, even though I’ve been on a binge, I’ve been angry enough to work out. So I guess that evens the score :P
Viulu: Actually, it makes me a bit happier to know he’s holding juice and not milk. Even before I was vegan, milk made me gag…
Shout out to my soul mate, Ash! I’m back
Alice D & Bonesarepure: I say: “Feel the Anger! Feel the Burn!” I’m sure fat isn’t anger-resistant :D
Liz: I hadn’t seen angry thinspo either, but Ash kind of provided in that post of hers! I don’t know if you’ve heard of prettythin.com, but they had a section with bitchspo, which was kind of angry…
Gaia Andre: Thanks, hun. You’ll like it even more now that I’m posting again, I hope xD
Almost.Skinny: I’m over it now and thanks again for the tips! xx
Now, I’m gonna go catch up with your blogs and comment like a good girl should ^^

Morning:
Afternoon:
Evening:
Today was weigh in and… I weighed in.
First of all, let me laugh at myself for ever thinking I would weigh less than 160…
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
Okay, now that I’m done with laughing at myself, I’m sure you’d all like to know what number the scale slapped in my face…
167!!!
I used a bigger font to emphasize the immensity of this number, although I think the number speaks for itself (of course it does, a number that big not only has a voice, it has fucking fingers it can point to better laugh at me!)
Bye now, I’m going to dig a hole where I can lay in for eternity…
---------------------------
Oh yeah, there was a bright side to this news… (ever the optimist).
The GOOD news is that I weigh 167 – confusing, non?
Let me explain.
I was Ana and I was Mia – it was NOT fun. I’m not Ana anymore (duh, fatness…) or Mia, both of which I’m happy about. Anyone who’s been either knows it’s not a GOOD thing. You’re constantly depressed, the only thing that makes you smile is knowing you’re getting skinnier. You have no energy, no will to live, no interest in doing anything but losing weight.
I DON’T EVER WANT TO GO BACK TO THAT!
Though my weightloss methods aren’t orthodox, I am NOT BFF with ED anymore, nor do I plan to be.
Being 167 is good because I thought I weighed less, I didn’t feel fat obese. I know that a year ago, I felt obese at 125.
It’s good news, because this emphasizes that I was thin at 117. It’s good news because it means I can be healthy AND “skinny”. I won’t adjust my goal once I get to 117. I will no longer think that I need to be under 100 to be happy.
--------------------------
I changed up my blog a bit. Now you can see the people I follow and my weekly goals (+current weight). Also I’ve added a bar with my current diet/workout plan.
In september I took a pic of myself, so that I could see my progress. I’m going to take another picture today. I’ll post it today or tomorrow, so you guys can see my progress too. I actually really wanted to NOT take a picture, but if I don’t, I know I won’t be motivated enough, if you guys can see how I’m doing, I won’t want to let you down, so I’ll be more successful…
Oh and another up-side to being so fat – I won’t buy new clothes!!! I’m broke anyway, so I guess that’s good :P (fat humour – laugh!)
----------------------
Point is, I’m not giving up! I will make it to my goal and I won’t use any extreme methods (well, extreme for my standards).
I’ll post my diet in a few minutes.
Thanks for following me, guys (8 followers makes me happy :D), you’re my rock.
Love you all, dolls!

It’s finally starting to work. I think I killed the voices in my head.
Until now, I’ve messed up a whole year in which I should have been losing weight. But for the first time in a VERY long time, I’ve stuck to a diet for 4 days.
Sunday I fasted, I wasn’t hungry or tempted. Monday, I drank juice and had some veggies and even though it wasn’t part of the original plan, I didn’t freak out. I just ignored it.
I’ve noticed that is the best thing to do. If you “acknowledge” you’ve failed, you’re so likely to blow it because “you messed up anyway.”
Yesterday, I fasted again. No problem, just drank my teas and read books. I was offered cake and I declined.
Today, I drank my juice and it’s already mid-day, I’m feeling great and I’ll be busy all day.
I’ve started exercising too ^^
I think I’m really getting somewhere – I’m feeling confident.
Friday’s the big weigh in. Then I’ll know what I’m up against.
No matter what the scale says – I’m getting back to 53!
This winter, I will be her.
It’s Sunday and in about 5 days I’m going to weigh myself for the first time in, possibly, a year.
I set so many goals since last year and failed miserably, this time it’s NOT happening!!
They say you got to take the good with the bad, well…
Good:
Bad:
I know this because my mom wore those clothes when she was about 165 and there’s no way I can lose 20lbs by Friday!
But I’m not changing my goal yet AGAIN! I’m sticking to 145 and I’ll just see how far I get.
Also, I’m going to start taking better care of myself, make-up, accessories, all that BS – because even though I look like shit, I could like pretty shit. And I noticed that when I look decent, I’m less likely to fail at my diet.
But, to end on a happy note – at least the 1-day fast worked out :D
Play for this week:
So to more fasts to go. Now for some optimistic math!
On a fast, I lose about 3lbs and with juice, no more than 1, so the most I could lose in these for days is: 8lbs and assuming I’m 155 (which is really optimistic, but yeah…), I could be 147 by Friday, which isn’t too bad. It should be possible, because when your this fat, you should lose wait quickly.
Fingers crossed and lips sealed – that’s how I’m getting through this week.

She obviously beat the binge... |
That’s what I’ve got to remember. Everyone has their own weakness. Everyone has their own way of failing. And mine is by thinking. I am, by nature, a thinker. I am, also, by nature, selfish. And unfortunately my selfishness is still at quite a primitive stage.
When I see food I’m not supposed to eat, I start thinking. Not of how I shouldn’t eat it, or how it’s bad for me, but of ways/excuses that I can eat it. I’m selfish in a way that I can satisfy my immediate desire, which of course does not serve me in the long run.
From tomorrow, no more thinking, no more excuses – JUST FUCKING SAY NO!
SALADS AND FRUIT. Stick with it.
