i imagine adulthood to be like one of those “choose your own adventure” books except each choice is terrible
you encounter your first PAYCHECK. it is MEAGER and will BARELY BE ENOUGH to pay your BILLS
to pay your rent for this week but starve, turn to page 97
to buy food at the risk of becoming homeless, turn to page 109
to give up on life and just spend the money on hookers and blow, turn to page 69

A couple of weeks ago I turned up to my dance class early, my teacher and the teacher of the previous class were talking about eating disorders.
The teacher from the previous class said:
‘if a girl turned up anorexic to my class I would send her home and tell her not to come back until she was healthy. That is not safe.’
It just made me happy that not all professional dancers are all about image, especially with ballet teachers. It was great to see my own teachers promoting health <3
- butty is a controversial one which means different things in different parts of the country (like for me a bacon butty would mean bacon in a burger bun, not a sandwich) - you can definitely use sandwich and I would stick to it for safety
- you can still say cupcake, hungry and dessert and be perfectly British
- cozzy is short for swimming costume, which is what I’d actually say
- I’ve never heard a scarf being called a muffler
- You can use all of the “American” insults here and still remain British-sounding apart from jerk because no one says jerk. Some of those “British” insults sound a bit silly to me (please don’t call someone a plonker dear lord).
- Don’t ever say cheerio unless you want to sound like a twat

Dude so little notes?
This is really relevant to our followers, who are regularly stalked by TITP trolls and other fat haters (and since fat’s a big intersectional issue, who get other forms of hate as well).
D: only 18k notes… it looks like there are a lot of anon hate senders
This isn’t even at 30k yet?! This should have at least 100k or more notes by now! C’MON TUMBLR, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER AND REBLOG THIS!
there is nothing romantic about
- not knowing you’re beautiful
- loving someone until they learn to love themselves
please stop romanticizing low self esteem.
it’s one thing to love a person who happens to have low self esteem
it’s another thing to frame low self esteem as a desirable trait.

These exercises may look easy (they’re not!) - but they are easy to do incorrectly. Check out this article and check your form!
Also, you can do crunches all day and they aren’t as effective as planks. Do more planks!
Jessica Smith is such a happy, perky trainer. Her articles like this one make me smile.
