I believe crash dieting can be like being anorexic, bulimic, or just going on strictly insane diets... pretty much, it's just overly obsessing about your weight to the point where you will practically starve yourself.

It's quite sad.. cry.gif

Uhm. No. An eating disorder is a mental disease. A crash diet, according to tfddotcom:
QUOTE
A Crash diet is a diet which is extreme in its deprivations - typically severely restricting calorie intake. Meant to achieve rapid weight loss, a crash diet differs from outright starvation only slightly. Crash diets are typically unhealthy and are rarely - if ever - recommended by doctors or Dietitians.


Yeah. I've never "crashed dieted"--I've never had a reason to just want to lose x pounds REALLY quickly and just have that. I'm disordered, so I have weird coping mechanisms tied in with food and my weight. I starve--or feel the need to, no matter the rational "you're so stupid! you know you can't do x and lose y pounds why doing z activities" thoughts that may or may not come to mind to others. I binge, I purge, whatever. It's so hard to try and explain my emotions without coming off as a preacher, so I'll stop. It's just..people don't always think rationally, especially if they have nothing more to turn to, so they develop odd ways to cope.. Yeah. Eating disorders are not chosen, too, by the way. Christ. "Ana" and "Mia" are not my buddies, thx.
It saddens me when others do try to crash diet, though. I always, always try to discourage them because they usually don't need to lose, yes. If they do, I try to recommend healthy ways that would be satisfying.
Heh, I've been to enough dieticians and doctors, read so many ways of dieting healthily and such, that I know how to talk about..just not do. Shrug.
