Whenever you feel hungry, try to visualize that gnawing feeling in your stomach in problem areas like your thighs.  Imagining your fat being burned away will help give you motivation and to not eat for longer periods of time.

Starving Tip of The Day!

• Friday, March 5th, 2010

This starving tip of the day came from SkinnyGossip reader Chloe:

Food JUST SITS THERE.  Whenever you feel like reaching for some food, take another look at it and you’ll come to realize that it just sits there. That cookie isn’t going to jump up at you and into your mouth. It is harmless. All you have to do is NOT reach for it and you’re safe. It’s not going to get at you if you leave it alone. Drink some water, and continue with your work :)

Thanks for the great tips you’ve been sending Chloe!

Thinspo & Inspiration in Movies

• Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Recently a SkinnyGossip reader emailed me and shared some movies that she found inspiring.  She thought they might be inspirational to some of you so I wanted to share them with you.  I’ve only watched a few minutes of each one so I can’t give you an honest assessment of what I think of them.  They seem to be similar to a normal two hour movie, but have a storyline pertaining to dieting/eating disorders/starving yourself to be thin/etc.  They are different than some of the other thinspo movies that I’ve watched on YouTube, which are usually video clips and pictures of real skinny girls and models, with music added to make a video.

In any case, I thought some of you might find them inspirational.  I know we all need different things for inspiration and thinspiration so I know this will work for some and not for others.

Enjoy!  Thanks Mandi for sharing the movies with us!

Starving Tip of The Day!

• Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

This starving tip of the day came from SkinnyGossip reader Minnie:

If you don’t know how many calories are in something, don’t eat it! If you absolutely must eat something that you don’t know the caloric content of, always go with it being much more than what you think it is. It’s better to think you’ve eaten more than you have than to think that you’ve eaten less.

Thanks for the great tip Minnie!

Starving Tip of The Day!

• Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

This starving tip of the day came from SkinnyGossip reader Chloe:

Exercise the first thing in the morning. And exercise every morning. Get up earlier than everyone else to exercise. This helps me in several ways:
  • Fat-burning will definitely occur because you haven’t had breakfast.
  • It “wakes” you up, and you won’t feel lethargic for the rest of the day and end up reaching for food.
  • You feel more in control because you’ve done something that most other people have no will power to do – getting up earlier to exercise. This has ripple effects on your confidence for the rest of the day.
  • You wouldn’t want to “ruin” your exercise by overeating later. This is as opposed to exercising at night, when it simply feels like you’re “cancelling out” what you’ve eaten for the day.

If you can’t seem to muster up enough energy in the morning, simply take a nice walk. The weather’s cooling and perfect in the mornings.

Thanks for another great tip Chloe!

Starving Tip of The Day!

• Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

This starving tip of the day came from SkinnyGossip reader Carolyne:

If you have problems with gaining weight in a particular area, a certain problem zone, such as the stomach, wear underclothes designed to disguise or help with that problem zone 24/7.  Instead of taking off your Spanx after work or school, keep them on.  When the body is trying to find a place to store any piece of fat, it will look to those places but will not be able to squeeze the food there.  I have struggled with my problem area of my stomach for years – no matter how skinny I get (I am 5′5″ and 101 pounds), I always have a bit more weight then I would like in that area and can never seem to get the flat stomach I want especially when compared to my longer limbs, like so many other women.  A couple months ago, I decided to experiment and wore a tight pair of new Spanx to sleep. To my delight, I woke up the next morning with a completely flat stomach. It seems that the food bypasses my stomach and moves it to other areas now, leading to a more proportionate body fat distribution and the silhouette I have always dreamed of.  I bet it sounds crazy, but there are lots of women who use sweat bands or other such garments to burn fat, and corsets have been shown to actually change the bone structure of women over time, so this is no different. I hope this helps, because for many women, no matter how skinny you get, you can’t get rid of problem areas and this often leads to disappointment.  It even can cause people to give up entirely on their quest to be skinny, once they feel that their ideal body is simply unachievable.  It has worked for me and I can’t say how excited I am!

Thanks for the great tip Carolyne!  I can’t wait to try it!

Starving Tip of The Day!

• Thursday, February 18th, 2010

If you want to binge – distract yourself!  Try decorating or organizing something.  When I pick a project to do, it distracts my mind for a while and keeps me from thinking about food.  Plus after I’m finished, I feel a great sense of accomplishment for what I just did.

Still want to binge?  Drink three big glasses of water.  Really chug ‘em and I guarantee you’ll feel too sick to even eat.  Another idea – drink a couple of teaspoons of vinegar.  It makes your stomach feel really weird and you won’t want to eat.

I thought this would be helpful to those of you asking about binging.
