I got an ask about how to speed up metabolism but i accidentally deleted it while I was trying to save it to my drafts, so I’m sorry about that.
Tips for speeding up ur metabolism!!
1. Exercise. It's the most obvious yet the most effective way to speed up your metabolism. If moving seems hard to you, just think of all the calories you could be burning while doing each movement.
2. Caffeine. Coffee, energy drinks, kopiko, green tea, anything with caffeine has been shown to increase metabolism by 3-11%. Be careful not to have more than 400mg of caffeine a day, especially when your not eating much as the effects can be stronger usually not in a good way.
3. Cold temperatures. Anything that's cold such as a cold room, cold drink, or cold shower like you mentioned will temporarily speed up your metabolism as your body uses that energy to warm you up. This has been proven true, but I don't think it makes a noticeable difference if i'm honest.
4. Eat protein. One component of your metabolism is known as TEF (thermic effect of food) or DIT (dietary induced thermogenesis). Basically this means that ur body burns a % of the calories in the food just by digesting it. Contrary to popular belief, not all calories are made equal. Fat provides 9 calories per gram, and its TEF is 0-3%. Carbohydrate provides 4 calories per gram, and its TEF is 5-10%. Protein also provides 4 calories per gram, but it's TEF is 20–30%. So yeah protein is best.
5. Water. Cold water can speed up your metabolism, but drinking water in general will help you lose weight and reduce bloating.
Sorry again for deleting ur question 🫠 i hope the person who asked ends up seeing this lol

every time you eat, you WILL regret it
Kate Moss was so right. NOTHING tastes as good as skinny feels. why would you pollute yourself with calories just to be miserable when you could have had a perfect figure a long time ago?

I’m so sick rn, I think it’s the flu. But there are positives to this!
I don’t have to go to work, I have no appetite, and I just get to sip sugar free crystal lite and sit in the sun all day!

I’m so tired y’all. I’m working two full time jobs and I’m a full time student and I pay all my own bills. I just gotta keep pushing through. Keep reminding myself “the time will pass either way, where do you want to be after it’s passed?”.
All I want to do is skip class, call out of work, and eat Oreos in my apartment hot tub. But that would push me FURTHER from my goals.
In two years I can have money, a husband, be a PhD candidate and at my goal weight. But I need to work for those things today.
I need to keep pushing.

Or when I get an A on a test
the only time I feel in control is when the scale goes down
