What it takes to be skinny.

omgoli

Wake up feeling tired even though you've slept all night

and conceal the circles under your eyes.

Wear cardigans and sweaters in a 75 degree room

because your body constantly catches a chill.

It's worth it though.

Shove your hands down your throat

because you just broke your fast,

and tell yourself you are not hungry.

Diet coke and Vitamin water tastes so good

when you haven't consumed anything for the past 2 days.

Get addicted to the feeling of it rushing down your

throat while you demons taunt you.

      It's hard to understand when you havent been through it.
      To be frank I dont even understand why we do.
