I don't have a favorite "thinspo" blog because (yeah, I'm getting my sociology and mental health counselor brain on, sue me) I think that they're hugely problematic and all they do is promote eating disorders and a culture that is pro-thinness as opposed to pro-health. ( Read more... ) -
challenge day 10
Tumblr 30 day weight loss challenge, day 10: What was the hardest thing you gave up during this “weight loss"?

weight loss challenge (multiple days)
GUYS I AM SO SORRY I AM SO BAD AT LIFE.
To recap, since I've been away for way too long: I decided not to weigh in on Friday because I have my period and I always bloat and gain weight, and I knew the number on the scale would just depress me.
