... You say you're dropping 10 pounds - preparing for the summer.And you don't do it for the man, men never notice.
You just do it for yourself. You're the fucking coldest."
Too right, Drake.
Been eating SOOO MUCH lately. I swear my body's making me compensate for the fact I'll be going back to uni thus starving myself in about 3 days. "Quick, we better stock 'er up! Get them calories IN!"
Ricky laughs at me. I've been too afraid to talk to him... Ricky makes me sick. Ricky makes me sicky. (I love to rhyme)
Plus, I'm chewing the skin off my fingers like there's no tomorrow... have I told you about that? I have a weird habit where I have to eat myself to death, apparently. Pick, pull, chew, eat the skin around my fingernails... my hands look gross. I can be raw, red and bleeding, but I won't stop. Habit, or compulsion? All I know is, I gotta STOP.
19-year-old's resolution #2. (#1 being the weight loss.) Does anyone else have this? Or has gotten OVER this? I'd love to hear your methods. I must've had this for about 12 years.
I'm gonna wrap sticky tape all around my fingers to control myself... plus, I've been chewing my nails as of late, which isn't good. I broke that habit already, dammit!
Where the hell is that plaster tape??
I'm not even going to go into the diet today. I'll just say this - it was BAD. I ate lunch... a massive lunch... then my mum wanted us all to go out to lunch at a restaurant, post-work. And I couldn't get out of it. THAT'S RIGHT, 2 LUNCHES. But no dinner. Does that make up for it?
... No.
I can hear Ricky laughing from here!
Q x
When my cousin used to suck her fingers (lol, i know its not the same but..) my aunt found some sort of really bitter tasting stuff to put on them and she stopped almost instantly. I cant remember what its called but it might be pretty common and easy to find if you search around parenting methods to stop sucking on fingers haha
ReplyDeletethanks for the lovely comment! you won't believe it but our twin-ness is about to get more twinny: i eat the skin around my fingers too! i've been biting my nails for as long as i can remember and now chewing the skin for so long as well...i just pick and peel it off - it's compulsive! i'm so embarrassed about my hands but i can't stop...i'm so self-conscious when i'm using a pen or whatever, especially when my cuticles have been bleeding or the new wound is still an angry red. if you find a way to work it out let me know!!! stay strong xx
ReplyDeletep.s. i'm from aus :-)
Ahh lovelybones I've heard of that stuff, apparently it's good to help kids stop sucking their thumbs. I've been meaning to have a look for it in Boots but have always forgotten, and it seems like it'd be a weird question to ask a shop worker... unless I just say I'm looking for something to help my little brother?? Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteAh amy I'm glad I'm not alone! More things we have in common :) if I find a good method that makes me stop, I'll let you know!
