Just ordered this yesterday! Looking forward to getting it in the mail :)

How to get rid of the bloat!

5 foods that help you get a flat stomach:

• Oatmeal
• Lentils
• Quinoa
• Broccoli and all types of kale
• Dark wholegrain breads that are rich on fibres

5 foods that make you bloat:

• Coffee
• Tea – Yes, even green tea if you drink a lot of it!
• Sugar
• White bread
• Light and diet products

Exchange your daily fruit for vegetables. It’s better on your digestion since the sugar in the fruit can disturb an otherwise healthy digestion.

Make sure to drink lots of water! It may seem strange that you need to fill your stomach with liquids in order to make it flatter. However, a reduced intake of liquids and a bloated stomach are connected.

If you can’t make do without your smoothie there are ways to avoid the bloat. Try drinking it while having a bit of meat for instance. That way your stomach will have something to digest. Why are smoothies not all good? Read here.

Take time. Both in preparation and in chewing your food.

Tall is not cute→

I am appalled to say that I agree with an article from Lainey Gossip (I probably agree because it wasn’t written by Lainey). Also appalled that I’m actually posting a link to her site, but it’s actually completely spot on what’s written in the article. If you’re a tall girl like me (5’9.5”) you’ll know exactly what they’re talking about. Give it a read.

But a tall girl – from the age of about 12 or 13, she knows she’s not ‘cute’. Not adorable. She can’t wear babydoll dresses sometimes, because they look like she’s a child who can’t stop wearing her childhood things. She’s never going to be the kind of girl whose boyfriend rests his chin on her head while they attend a concert.

The tall girl is supposed to be able to protect herself. From childhood, she looks older and much less silliness is tolerated from her. Tall girls are expected to be more mature and responsible. In hetero couples with a tall man and short women, he often puts the guiding hand on the small of her back to make sure she’s OK. You rarely see that with a tall woman (which means that for me at least, when it does happen, it’s kind of kryptonite [Me too! Us tall girls want to feel small and protected too! (my comment)]).

This is a tumblr I've made to keep myself on track with my weight loss. There's also some royalty (especially the Danish royal family) and quite a bit of John Krasinski appreciation going on.
