Academy 8 - Dollification 2 - Getting your dream body (part 1)
Ready to get to work?
Hi there honey, I’m one of the senior Physical Trainers at the Academy. A lot of students hear my title and think I’m there to spank and whip them but my punishments are of an entirely different sort.
I know that way back in the first module, you’ve all created folders and collected pictures of bodies you dreamed of having and my job is to help students get them.
Before we start to get into today’s lesson, we need to have a little talk first. This is a topic that a lot of girls have issues with and it causes problems for them, so it was decided to place it in the second half of the course where it is hoped you’re ready for it and able to treat it in the manner it deserves.
Let’s get the most important part out of the way first. We’re not saying you’re too fat or too thin, we’re not saying you need to lose or gain weight and we’re not saying you need to diet, exercise or anything.
So what are we saying?
The same thing we’ve always said! You can be happy and beautiful and sexy no matter what you look like but we also recognise that plenty of you want to change and want to look differently then you do and we want to help you to do this.
Changing your body in this fashion requires 3 things diet, exercise and time. Today we’ll look at diet, the next letter will deal with exercise and then we’ll have a look at how to adapt these and apply them to your life.
These are subjects that you can spend a whole lot of time reading about and studying and going into more and more detail with. Then you find that you’re more confused and unsure of how to progress than when you started. Fortunately, the basics are relatively simple and enough for the vast majority of people.
I’m not going to make promises about what you can or can’t achieve, in part because I always try to never put limits on any of my students but also because making wild claims about success in the area of physical fitness is usually a good sign that someone is trying to hoodwink you.
Diet
We begin with diet because it’s the most important part! Your body reflects what you eat so if you want to change how it looks you need to change what you eat.
At the most basic level, your mouth is like the hole in a car where you insert the petrol pump/plug (yes I know where your mind goes when I talk about inserting things in holes like that, you can’t help but giggle).
If you overfill a car with petrol, it starts to leak back out of the hole and if you leave the plug in an electric car too long, it will stop charging. If you overfill your body with fuel, it won’t stop taking it in, it will find other ways to store it (usually as fat). This is good if food is scarce, otherwise, we’d be permanently on the verge of keeling over from having no fuel but when food is plentiful then it’s very easy to overeat, either by a little or by a lot and over time, this starts to add up and show on your body.
The basics
As with a lot of things, it comes back to numbers! Food supplies an amount of energy and the unit we’ll use to talk about this is the calorie.
You burn energy constantly throughout the day. Even if you’re bedridden or in a coma, your body still needs energy to do any number of tasks like beating your heart and breathing.
And here we have the first lesson, eating more calories than your body uses will cause you to gain weight (and conversely, eating fewer calories than your body uses will cause you to lose weight).
So, simple isn’t it? Shall we call it a day and maybe you can get in some practice on your dildos?
Not so fast!
We’re only getting started and your dildo will have to wait!
One pound of fat contains 3,500 calories and 2,000 calories is the recommended daily intake of calories for a person (these are very rough figures just to give you an idea of things) so a pound of fat on your body is the equivalent of almost two days of food. This is where time comes into it. To change your body weight in a significant fashion will take more time than anyone would like it to and this is why a lot of people lose heart and stop. It’s easy to decide you’re going to lose weight, but it’s not just one decision, it's one decision that you need to make over and over and over again.
Mindset
You probably knew this might come up! If you change what you eat and lose weight but then you revert back to what you ate before your weight loss, you’ll gain the weight back. This is fine if you wanted a slight change for a particular purpose but if you want your changes to stick, you need to get out of the “I’m on a diet” mindset.
Diets like these are always temporary things and will end at some point and if you don’t hit what your goals are (or if you do and then gain weight back) you can end up yoyo-ing up and down in weight, so you need to make wholesale changes to what you eat and change your outlook so you’re not on a permanent diet, you’re just changing your eating habits.
Good news
This can sound terrible, but rest easy, it isn’t! I’m not about to tell you that you need to give up chocolate or cakes or soda, you can eat anything you want but you can’t eat everything you want.
A small chocolate bar contains about 200 calories, that’s 10% of the daily intake I mentioned above! You can lose weight eating just about anything (a teacher in America demonstrated this a few years ago by losing weight on a purely Mcdonalds' diet) but you have to be aware of things like portion sizes and how it will affect you.
I will also add that you may lose weight on a 100% chocolate diet but your body may not thank you for it!
Homework
Download MyFitnessPal or any similar app and for the next week, track everything you eat or drink (with the exception of water). It makes it easy by letting you scan barcodes (be careful and make sure that the sizes it mentions are what you’re eating).
You don’t have to change what you’re eating, just track it and make sure you record everything! That bag of chips you absentmindedly put in your mouth when you’re playing videogames counts as much as anything else you eat.
If you find that you’re resistant to doing this or keep making excuses not to, think about why that is.
For things that you can’t input, search the internet for estimates of how many calories it contains and use that, if you find a few different figures, always err on the high side.
Your next letter will follow in a few days and we’ll be looking at moving the cute butt of yours for fun and profit!
