That's all well and good for girls who are 170 lbs & trying to lose weight,

oh you fit in a medium! but want to be in a double 0

Boo hoo, cry me a river

try being 250 - 260 lbs (I'm afraid to step on a scale)

all you want is to be under 200 lbs & be able to fit in a large!

Does fatty need to eat now?

[Holding0n]

@OddsandEndsGirl Yes, you do need to eat. It doesn't matter what your weight is. Starving yourself is a really great way to develop malnutrition, thyroid problems, kidney problems, a messed up metabolism and heart problems - to name a few. Starvation also leads to severe depression, severe anxiety and obsessive thoughts. Anorexia is not a diet, it's a mental illness triggered by multiple factors and it is hell, ir ruins lives and it takes lives. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone.

Positive videos make me feel even worse because it makes realize even more how much desperate and miserable I am and how screwed up my life is. I've got no friends anymore. I lost everything.

I've been in recovery for about 6 months now. I spent those 6 months still trying to lose weight. It worked for a little bit, but then I lost weight and ended up back where I started. Y'know, anorexia wasn't worth it. I lost so much... so many people and things. And a lot of time. I barely remember anything that went on in my life for the past year. It's all a blur.... I was too focused on food and weight. And now I'm fighting for recovery the same way I fought for relapse.

Because of anorexia my life is shit and I have medical issues including a hyperactive thyroid which will probably get worse. All of the shit it tells you is false.

@Holding0n I think that ur doing a great job helping people with what ur doing keep doing a good job :)

@OddsandEndsGirl The point should never have been division of anybody according to weight, but unification against the way we FEEL when we try to shove ourselves into a perfect little mold made up for an over sexed and delusional world that is always changing and never satisfied with the inside of a person instead of their looks. Rather than being hateful, realize that some of them may have started out just like you, and see the result. Try using the way you feel to connect, not alienate.

i feel the same way

@OddsandEndsGirl That is horribly rude for people who do have Ana, Mia or any other ED. It takes strength just to watch these. Trust me.

@OddsandEndsGirl {no offence intended im just blunt }well alot of girls started at 200lbs the differnts is we actully stopped till we went down and just arnt done yet. everything in moderation or else ull get sick and pass out if ur gonna do it. do it right.my advice is step on the scale.and cry. then get motivated. and eat healthy and exercise. or excersie and not eat at all. might do better with the first but the second worked fast and better for me just sayn. just gotta know when to stop.
