Ana Buddies are a fantastic way to upbeat thinspo, and to help you along the way. Usually Ana Buddies are contacted through Pro-Ana sites like my own. Since my site is not a community, I do highly recommend eating disorder communities such as PrettyThin.
However, I'm always looking for new Ana Buddies. If you are intrested in being Ana Buddies with me, please email me at jbrownsaloser@yahoo.com.
To make a further announcement, some people have realized I have two different email accounts. My gmail account is directly linked to this blog. I only use this email to keep my blog up and running. I personally prefer yahoo as my personal email, so if you have any questions at all, or just a request for what I should post next, please tell me. Send me Thinspo pictures, videos, quotes, etc.
Thank You for Everything. Stay Strong<3

True or False?
We all hear myths about anorexia and weight loss. But the real question is: Are they true? I'll answer a few of the most common ones.
#1. "Smoking cigarettes helps to lose weight."
False. The actual cigarette does not make you lose weight, but often what people who smoke will do is replace meals with several cigarettes, which decreases appetite. Although they do not "make you skinny", you can use them when you feel you want to eat to curb the craving.
#2. "Diet pills have negative effects."
True. Dietary supplements, especially newer ones, have negative side effects. If used very frequently, some of these side effects can cause you serious problems. Always use them as directed.
#3. "You can purge through diet pills."
True, but not directly after meals. You must wait until the food completely digests, then use diet pills afterwards, which boosts your metabolism and helps your body burn fat.
#4. "Anorexics don't eat."
False. Anorexics do eat. If we didn't, how do we stay alive for so long? We eat, just not enough. I eat around 500-700 calories a day. It all depends how long you've been in the game.
#5. "Bulimics are thin."
This one varies. Although some are, bulimics usually weigh more than someone with anorexia. This is because after purging, the body realizes the lack of food, making your body retain water and hold on to body fat.
I hoped this helped! xoxoxo

Curb Cravings!
1. Mints.
These things are only 5 calories, and can zap your taste buds.
2. Cough drops.
These things are gross, and can definatly change your mind about eating.
3. Floss.
Mint-flavored floss gets your mouth clean and makes you not want to eat.
4. Toothpaste.
It gets your mouth clean and burns your mouth.
5. Sore-throat spray.
This is the best. It has no calories, and it numbs your throat. This works extremely well when you feel a binge coming on.
Hoped this helped!

Tips To Upbeat Tinspo
Tip #1: Take icy cold showers and baths.
This is a great trick. Your body burns many more calories when you're cold. Also, you're parents will never know you're taking cold showers!
Tip #2: Make yourself hate food.
Open the fridge, and talk to food. Say things like, "Ew, chocolate is disgusting!" It may be a lie now, but soon you'll be speaking the truth! You convince your mind you actually do hate chocolate, or any food.
Tip #3: Dance instead of cardio.
Yes, cardio and strength training are definatly the biggest part of pro-ana exercise. But sometimes, you just don't want to go to the gym. Put on some fast beat music and dance for 30 minutes! It's fun, and great exercise. You can also jump on a trampoline for exercise.
Tip #4: Feel a binge coming on?
The moment you feel a longing for food, follow these steps: First, distance yourself from food. Take a walk (or run!), and get as far away from food as possible.
Second, log into a pro-ana site (like my own) and browse through the thinspiration photos.
Thirdly, look at yourself in a mirror naked, that will make you second guess whether you really want that brownie or not. Remember, empty is good. Empty is strong.
Tip #5: Incorporate exercise into your daily life.
What is something that you do everyday, no matter what? Brushing your teeth? Showering? Exercise while doing somthing that you always do. Do leg lifts while watching TV, or do situps in the shower.
Tip #6: Reverse a binge.
After a binge, you feel guilty and pissed that you ate so much. Get rid of it. If you're like me, you can't puke on demand. Ever heard of the bananna and Sprite challenge? Eat two banannas as fast as you can, directly followed by 2 cans of Sprite or 7 Up. This makes you vomit, no matter what. (Risk Warning: Consistant induce-vomitting over long periods of time can cause severe damage to your stomach and esophagus, as well as erotion of tooth enamel.)
Tip #7: Take your time.
Cut your food into small peices and chew every peice until it's almost a liquid. This teaches your body to learn to be patient and to not over eat.
Tip #8: Set long-term and short-term goals.
Long-term goals are weight goals that are the biggest. For example, your long term goal may be 95 pounds, so you set a short-term goal at 120, so once you reach that goal, you lower it until you reach 95. This allows you to stay on track and gives you something to celebrate from time to time.
Tip #9: Never eat school lunch.
At school, your parents have no way of knowing if you ate lunch. Never eat anything at lunchtime, instead use your lunch money to buy awards for losing weight. (No food rewards!)
Tip #10: Memorize calorie, fat, sugar, and carb charts. Your parents will get suspicious if you're constantly checking the food labels, so print off different charts from the internet. Also this will help you order the best dish at a resteraunt.

Hiding Anorexia
Here are some beginner tips for keeping your secret a secret! This works especially well with people with protective parents or people who are usually with people.
1. Tell them you already ate! Don't believe you? Leave food-smeared dishes in the sink, leave wrappers laying around, and throw away food your parents thought you ate. Food can be disposed down a garbage disposal or flushed down the toilet. Also, when your parents are home, open and close the fridge, cabnets, and the pantry to stimulate snacking.
2. If you're usually alone in the morning when you're getting ready for school, never eat any breakfast. If breakfast is made for you, throw most of it away, and leave a small amount on the plate.
3. Use diet pills? Put them in a vitiman bottle. You can also store them in a place you know your parents would never look in. For example, your underwear drawer.
4. Use your lunch money to buy yourself rewards for loosing weight! You could buy a new scale, a water bottle, diet pills, smaller clothes, and gym clothes. Just don't buy food rewards!
5. Tell your parents you have an afterschool meeting, or you're going to a friend's house. Walk (or run) to the nearest drug store, then you can buy diet pills, laxatives, and other items! If you're pretty young, you can also buy a Happy Birthday card so the cashier won't suspect anything.
6. Never talk about how fat you think you are around others. Especially don't boast about how beautiful skinny people are. Also, never talk about calories, fat content, grams of sugar, or fasting. Don't tell anyone you lost weight. Pretend that you didn't notice you lost weight if someone points it out.
7. Tell friends you're vegan, lactose intolerant, glutan-intolerant, allergic to nuts, allergic to fruit, or anything they offer to you. You can use all of them!
8. If someone ever talks about anorexia, pretend to be disgusted and say, "I can't believe someone could starve themselves!". Also, if anyone suspects you're an anorexic, deny it!
9. Use excuses like your stomach is upset, you already ate, you aren't hungry, or you don't like that specific food.
10. Be sure to hide food that you throw out. Put it under something when you throw it away so no one can see it sticking out and wonder why someone threw out an uneaten portion.
