workout tips from a student athlete & med student:

- don't workout fasted. that includes working out first thing in the morning. it unnecessarily causes stress to your body, cortisol spikes and your body ends up storing fat instead of converting it to muscle. if you really have to do something on an empty stomach, go for yoga or walking, but don't let your heart rate spike

- high intensity workouts are not the best for wl, once again, they cause stress to your body. and we don't want to be stressed 🗣️. opt for zone 2 (that's when you feel like your doing work, but can still talk), it burns fat and is more sustainable.

- don't ever risk overtraining. I've been there before, got injuries that i'll carry for the rest of my life. it's smarter to go slow and maybe build up from there (max 10% in increase per week), than starting to work out 9 times a week from nothing and having to stop after two weeks

- feel like you're skinny fat? just tone up come on! that's literally the point where you want to take that extra fat and turn it into muscle. train your thighs, your abs, your arms. you'll be leaner in the end

- get your electrolytes in!!! we want our pretty little hearts to function, so please, please, make sure your body gets all the things it needs

- struggle with sore and fatigued muscles? magnesium before sleep!!

- try to find one safe food that has fast sugars (banana, date, gingerbread, some kind of candy). and that's the food you want to eat before high intensity workouts. don't binge on it, but see it as fuel to then push your body and kickstart the wl benefits you get from it!!

- probiotics also help with your metabolism! if you need a sweet drink, don't drink something with artificial sweeteners, but get yourself some kombucha or kefir. artificial sweeteners just make you bloated, destroy your microbiome and aren't a pretty food. and remember, pretty people eat pretty things.

- have a small, protein rich snack after intense workouts. if you allow your body some fuel after workouts, you won't binge later.

- drink your water!!

- don't stretch immediately after working out, but rather try to fit it into your routine a little later! that should boost recovery and also adds another kind of activity/distraction later in the day

- sleep like it's what you were born for! it helps with metabolism, it boosts your recovery and sleeping is just nice

- don't be scared of building lean muscle! it makes you look more desirable and MUSCLES BURN MORE CALORIES. you want a pretty flat dainty stomach? train your abs

- low weight high rep work!!!! we don't want to get bulky

stay safe loves

Nothing hurts more then trying to get small for yourself and your partner but they say u don’t have the body to s⭐️ve. “Certain people are built to s⭐️ve u aren’t one of them”- I can’t wait to prove everyone wrong.

Things to do after a binge (instead of purg1ng)

drink a lot of water!! - I’ve found that drinking a lot of water helps a lot with digestion after binging. I’ll usually consume a lot of water before, during, and after binges, sorta as a safety net.

Stretch!! - Personally child’s and cobra pose help me the most with gas.

Tummy rubs - It honestly just feels good and helps with the pain after binging.

Hot shower / bath - very calming after the overwhelming feeling of binging. Making yourself feel good can give you a sense of control back.

Take a probiotic - sorta self explanatory.

Deep breaths - sounds a bit simple and obvious but taking a deeeeeep breath is actually very helpful and it’s good to make a habit of this. It also helps calm the digestive track and calm you down after the panic and feeling of dread that can follow after a binge.

Leave that scale alone !! - I feel like a lot of people have the instinct to immediately weigh themselves after a binge just to see how bad it was but that’s never a good idea, it’ll make you feel way bigger than you actually are. Wait a day if you really have to, let your body digest the food, give it time to reset.

A lil bit of exercise - can be anything really, even if you’re bad at working out and can only do small or short sets. I typically like to do push-ups but that’s because it’s the only workout I’m actually good at. It can also be something as basic and walking back and forth for awhile in your room or outside.

Heating pads - heat does wonders for bloating. I’d recommend always keeping a heating pad if you’re disordered in anyway! It helps with the pain and discomfort after binging and also helps keep warm if your body is struggling to maintain heat.

Chew well - during the binge, if you can, try to keep in mind to chew really well and take deep breaths during it, if you can’t stop yourself during the binge at least try to make it so it’s less painful afterwards.

Take a nap - I usually do this after my stretches, it just calms me down and gives me a chance to reset a little bit

** remember!! Everyone’s body is different, everyone has bad days with food. You’re not a monster for binging on food, just try and take care of yourself afterwards.

Negative calorie foods are foods that ur body has to use more energy to digest therefore u lose more calories than u gain by eating negative calorie foods

Some examples of negative calorie foods are: grapefruit, oranges, lemons, limes, apples, lettuce, broccoli, cabbage, watermelon, tomatoes, and cucumbers. There are many more as well.

Most Fruits and vegetables that contain a high amount of water are negative calorie foods.
