* A buddy in the same boat as you, will keep you at it. If you want me as your buddy email me foureverthin@yahoo.com
* A calorie is a calorie so it doesn’t matter what kind you eat just eat under 1000 and you'll lose weight all that stuff about eating a certain amount of carbs and fat doesn’t matter.
* Adopt a dog and feed him your food
* A little envy is a good thing, Competition is a great motivator
* Allow your self to eat some times. Just make sure when you eat, you are eating negative cal or low cal foods
* Although you may not like to exercise, it is very important. Go for a relaxing walk, make it fun and dance, go learn self defense. Just get moving
* Always, always, know the calories in everything you eat
* Always count your calories before you eat them. Better to be safe then sorry
* Always eat a teaspoon amount of food at one time. Remember to chew well
* Always estimate up when you are counting calories
* Always have a radio on and get into the habit of dancing along. You may fell like a fool, but you will be burning calories.
* Always keep a trash can near you when you are eating. So if you fell like you are going to over eat, you can just make a reflex action to throw the food away. You can’t think about it though, or you will decide to eat it. Even if you just ate a few bites, If you feel full just reflectively throw it away. But just one warning, Now I do not recommend this if you are eating with other people. It may make them suspicious.
* Always leave 3 hours between eating any thing and going to bed
* Always leave something on your plate, or you are a pig
* Always read the labels to avoid nasty surprises. Beware of the calories and nutrition in everything you eat.
* Always suck in your stomach. It makes you look thinner, plus ten seconds of holding your stomach equals one crunch
* Always take you vitimins
* Always watch you portion size. We have been brainwashed to think that a severing is bigger then it really is. Read the label to see how big a severing is and how may calories are in it
* Always wear perfectly applied sticky lip gloss or chap stick. It keeps you very aware of what is going into your mouth and makes you think twice about eating anything, because you will have to carefully reapply it
* An occasional binge don’t hurt. In fact it is quite beneficial if you have hit a plateau (stop losing weight) Your body will think it has stopped starving and you could lose up to a pound over night, Just don’t binge more then once a week and don’t have more then 2000 calories.
* Apparently the smell of coffee will suppress your hunger
* Ask your self do you really want more food, more then you want to be skinny?
* Ask your self when you go to eat something. “Do I really need this?”
* Avoid alcohol and drugs, anything that can effect you, will effect you more strongly and in different ways, and anything that effects your mind will lower your level of control. Munchies can be a nightmare when you are trying to lose weight and waking up with a hangover surrounded by half eating food evidence
* Avoid eating samples. The calories in them add up really fast
* Avoid eating refined foods, They are large part empty calories, and they don’t satisfy the body or supply much of your nutritional requirements
* Avoid nibbling during the day. The calories will really add up
* Avoid snacking when ever possible. Remember a key to dieting is don’t snack or eat unless you are really actually hungry.
* Avoid soda that is not diet cause it has a huge amount of calories and sugar
* Avoid sugar. Sugar will make you want more sugar and then you may end up in a binge
* Avoid the kitchen. Don’t go into food areas if there is no reason to. Remember out of site, out of mind

ANAS CREED
I believe in Control, the only force mighty enough to bring order to the chaos that is my world.
I believe that I am the most vile, worthless and useless person ever to have existed on this planet, and that I am totally unworthy of anyone's time and attention.
I believe that other people who tell me differently must be idiots. If they could see how I really am, then they would hate me almost as much as I do.
I believe in oughts, musts and shoulds as unbreakable laws to determine my daily behavior.
I believe in perfection and strive to attain it.
I believe in salvation through trying just a bit harder than I did yesterday.
I believe in calorie counters as the inspired word of god, and memorize them accordingly.
I believe in bathroom scales as an indicator of my daily successes and failures
I believe in hell, because I sometimes think that I'm living in it.
I believe in a wholly black and white world, the losing of weight, recrimination for sins, the abnegation of the body and a life ever fasting.
ANA PSALM
Strict is my diet. I must not want. It maketh me to lie down at night hungry. It leadeth me past the confectioners. It trieth my willpower. It leadeth me in the paths of alteration for my figure's sake. Yea, though I walk through the aisles of the pastry department, I will buy no sweet rolls for they are fattening. The cakes and the pies, they tempt me. Before me is a table set with green beans and lettuce. I filleth my stomach with liquids, My day's quota runneth over. Surely calorie and weight charts will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the fear of the scales forever.
Ana Pep Talk
Took this from anorexics.net
So you are craving food right now, huh? What do you think you are doing? Don't you dare go anywhere near food! Don't touch it, don't even think about it. What do you want to do, become a fat cow? I am your best friend, and if you eat, you are failing me and letting me down. If you eat, it shows what little self-control you have. That pain in your stomach right now, that is me, and that is your fat melting away. When you feel empty, it means you are empty of your sins. Summer is coming up. You want to be able to walk around in booty shorts and a bikini top, don't you? You want to walk around in a bikini with your flat, firm little stomach and your toned little thighs. You want to be able to run your hand over your stomach and feel your ribs. You want to go to the mall and see that skimpy outfit and know you would look d**n good in it. You made a commitment to me. I am your life and obsession. Don't break what we have. I will give you everything you want, but you have to give me what I want. And I want you to stay away from food. Go have some water. Go drink some tea or coffee. Or better yet - go to the gym, fatty! Don't show me what little self-control you have. Don't defy me. You know that if you go eat right now, you will end up on your knees puking it all up until you see blood and water and your stomach is aching. You will regret eating as soon as those calories and that fat slip past your tonsils and down into your body to add to that extra roll on your stomach. You are going to get cellulite. You are going to look like the typical fat soccer mom. I can give you so much - I can give you a great body. Show me your control and I will show you a flat stomach. Show me you love me and can keep me a secret and stay away from food and I'll give you those shaped little thighs. Show me you can run until you drop and I will give you a cute ass. You love me. If you eat now and throw away what you are working for, I will hate you. And you will hate yourself. You have a meal plan; you have goals and dreams. Don't throw that all away now. Don't give up what you really want for something you want now. Don't eat fatty. You are still no supermodel like Kate Moss. Don't fail me. Don't eat.

ANA’S THOU SHALL NOT
* Thou shall not eat without feeling guilty.
* Thou shall not eat fattening food with out punishing oneself afterwards
* Thou shall count all calories and restrict intake accordingly
* Thou shall not eat, because you are a big fat cow. No one wants to tell you, but you know
* Thou shall not eat, because you will never have any friends. Think of the people you most want to look like, and remember unless you are thin and beautiful, they will never accept you.
* Thou shall not eat, because you are lazy. You don’t move enough! You should never stop moving. You let your metabolism slow and then you are not burning calories
* Thou shall not east, because if you do, you’ll never be able to wear beautiful clothes. No one will care what you are wearing any ways, cause they are seeing is you and all your fat.
* Thou shall not eat, because if you do you will never be what you want to be in life, No body wants to hire a fat person. No body wants to see a fat entertainer, no body wants a fat doctor, so no body will want you
* Thou shall not eat, because the boys (men) will never like you. They will laugh at you instead
* Thou shall not eat, because it causes pain and no body likes pain. You will spend all of your life crying and hiding in the pain, in the shadows
* Thou shall not eat, because then you will prove everyone right. Think back to your trigger. That person that called you fat, think of them. If you eat you will prove them right
* Thou shall not eat, because if you are not thin you will never be beautiful
* Thou shall not eat, because thou does not need to. No one does. Eating is never necessary
* Thou shall not lie to ana - she is always watching you. she is always there
* Be careful with alcohol. It ca be very fattening. Beer is better then wine and sprits and if you are having mixed drinks go for diet soda instead of regular soda or lemonade. A shot of liquor has 100 to 200 calories, a glass of wine has 80 calories, a light beer has 110 - 120 calories and a regular beer has 140 - 170 calories
* Be careful with over the counter weight loss products including the natural and herbal ones. They speed up your metabolism, yes, but they are designed to be taken with a decent amount of food. They can be very bad for your heart, head and nervous system, If you use then with a severally restricted food in take. They can also mess up your sleeping cycle.
* Be competitive! Find a buddy online or in person and hold a contest; who can lose the most weight in a week, 2 weeks, or a month. If any one wants a buddy to do a competition with me, please feel free to email me at foureverthin@yahoo.com
* Be prepared with a debinge kit
* Become a vegetarian/vegan if you can, your family might let you cook your own meals to save them the trouble. Then you can make the meal you are going to eat as low calorie as you like
* Believe in yourself. That you can do it! You are strong enough! You are the one in control of how you look and what you eat! You have strong will!
* Brush your teeth after every meal. you want to any more to eat
* Brush your teeth. The taste of tooth paste will be horrid with the taste of any food and it’s a nice clean feeling with a great taste
* Burn twice as many calories as you eat and the weight will just start falling off
* Buy a pair of pants or an out that is at your goal size. Try it on every to weeks or once a month to see how close you are instead of weighing yourself all the time.
* Buy clothes one to two sizes to small that you really want and make them one of your goals
* Buy lunches/dinners of canned or container food, like lunch buckers. Then instead of eating them, bring them to a homeless shelter or food bank.
* Buy some baby teething gel and rub it on your tongue, it will numb your taste buds, making it harder to eat, and you won’t get the satisfaction of the food, so why eat it
* Buy two things you can wear. ( mine are a red bracelet and a weird looking hat with antlers) Wear one thing always (the red bracelet) then when you eat take the one thing off (if possible) and put on the other thing (weird looking hat with antlers) while you eat. Swapping every time you want to eat slows you down a little bit and gives you an extra minute to decide if you really want to eat or not.
* Buy yourself presents, actually wrap them up and give them to yourself when you reach your goals
