what i ate and purged
I ate pizza, these wonderful raspberry cookies, crackers, salted pistachios (I was craving salt), chocolate cookies, angel food cake, and cool whip. Then I drank about 5 glasses of water with salt stirred in. Then I got my toothbrush I use for this and purged. I didn’t like this though because it was unplanned. I craved salt so much, it started out with just 2 crackers but then I lost control. I also feel like I couldn’t purge all of this up or in time. My face looks fatter. I’m tired but I have to exercise more to burn off the calories I couldn’t purge. I can’t sleep until I do. There are burn 500 calorie workout videos on youtube but I don’t know if that’s really true, but I’ll do a few of them.
I found these lyrics on google, and related to some of it. I never heard of the group but the lyrics I most relate to I put in bold.
Holy by The Golden Palominos.
I eat only sleep and air
And everyone thinks I’m dumb
But I’m smart because I’ve figured it out
I am slimmer than you are
And I am burning my skin off little by little
Until I reach bone and self
Until I get to where I am essential
Until I get to where I am
Food doesn’t tempt me anymore
Because I am so full of energy and sense
I can even pass by water now
Because I am living off the parts of me
That I don’t need anymore
I could feel the slow drips of pain before
Swirling inside where my lungs should have been
Now I’m clean inside
I threw out hundreds of things that I didn’t need anymore
All my dresses and bras
Stupid things like jeans and socks
Most days I float through the house naked
So I can see myself in the mirrors
I have hundreds of them everywhere
And they talk back to me all the time
They keep me true and pure
They make sure I’m still here
When I knew what I had to do
I took all my notebooks, all my manuscripts
And ate them page by page
So I could take my words with me
I can finally control my life and even death
And I will die slowly like steam escaping from a pipe
This is my greatest performance
And all of the actresses who won my parts will say
How wonderful to let yourself go that mad
How wonderful to go on this kind of journey
And not care if you come back to tell the story
I scratch words on the walls now
So people will visit this museum and know
How someone like me ends up like this
(they’ll say there is art in here somewhere)
Everything that comes out of me is sacred
Every tear, every cough, every piss
Everything that comes off of me is sacred
Every fingernail, every eyelash, every hair
Starvation is sacred and I scratch my bones
Against the windows at night
I light candles and feel myself evaporate
This body is a little church, a little temple
You can’t see me now because I’ve gone inside
My family doesn’t call anymore
My friends don’t call anymore
You can’t hurt me anymore
They can’t hurt me anymore
Only I can
And that’s okay
I don’t need them anymore
I can live off of me
I speak to me
I dance with me
I eat me
When they find me, I’ll have a little smile on my face
And they’ll wrap me in a white cloth and lay me in the ground
And say they don’t understand
But I do
I don’t hurt anymore
I’m not lonely anymore
I’m not sad I’m not pretty anymore
I made it through
I feel so holy and clean when I stretch out on the floor and sing
Sometimes god comes in for a minute and says I’m doing fine, I’m almost there
Every day I get a little closer to vanishing
Some days I can’t stand up because the room moves under my feet
And I smile because I’m almost there
I’m almost an angel
One day when I am thin enough
I’ll go outside
Fluttering my hands so I can fly
And I will be so slight that I will pass through all of you
Silently
Like wind
