Purge Comparison

There is a confusion among people that laxatives do not help one lose weight. This is incorrect, as I can vouch using myself as evidence. Now, for any beginning Pro Mias or even the experienced, purging can be done in several ways (i.e. vomiting, exercising, etc.). However, what some Mias don't realize (if they are bulimia purging sub-type), is that there is a difference in calorie loss depending on ones method. Vomiting eliminate 50-70 % of the calories consumed, while laxative usage eliminate 10-30% of calories consumed.

Those stats alone would convince anyone to opt for the vomit method but, I recommend to vomit as unfequently as possible--or at least until ones throat sore and little spots of red come out. Also, purge easy foods---such as mushy/soft foods like bananas, wet cereal, etc. If you are purging dry foods, like cookies for instance, make sure you drink warm water with it (not after) to make the process easy on your esophagus. 

But, while carrying on with laxatives, one needs to be aware that their body will become accostomed to one type very quickly--thus you must be constantly tricking your body by switching up (i.e. powders, pills, teas, etc.) You can also combine them...I happen to use pills and tea but, in the past I mixed the powders into the tea.


Best of Luck to You,

Love like Winter

As the weather is transitioning here from summer to autumn, I know I will, once again, be able to slid in the comforting ease of Ana.

Last year, around this time, I was already beginning my descent into perfection. The numbing air was an absolute fantastic distraction from food, as all I could think about was how cold I was and how delicious it would be to cuddle near a warm fire. I had need not food, or any wavering weakness, as I thoroughly enjoyed watching my nails change into that delectable shade of bluish white. Not to mention, and take note to this, fellow EDNOS, that the season of cold is the best time to lose weight--despite what the media portrays as the period of "stocking up for the winter."

What many fail to comprehend, is that by being constantly surrounded by a cold environment, the body initiates homeostasis. To put simply, the body is burning fat, calories, and muscle mass just to maintain a steady, consistent body temperature. So...thank you to New York's fabulous lake effect snow. <3

Why people eat so much during the winter still baffles me. My mindset, during the lovely, frost-covered months, is that I can be completely and utterly satisfied with a nice cup of tea. The three teas which are most effective at making one drop the disgusting lbs are:
                   ~Green Tea (it is common knowledge that this raises one's metabolism)
                   ~Oolong Tea (it is well known in China as a tea that clears out one's digestive system)
                   ~Senna Tea/asian dieting tea (in an ode to any lovers of Mia, this tea acts as a stimulant laxative)

To all that seek a thinner beauty,
let the first fall of snow be as
perfect as we all will be.
