Ok so recently in school i was walking down the main corridor to over hear a conversation about making yourself sick, the girls were dicussing what they use, toothbrush handles, fingers.
These girls where as fat as my little finger and they where discussing how to lose weight by vomitting I just wanted to let people know that this can be VERY harmful to your insides! When food has reached your belly the stomach acid gets to work desolving it ready for digestion, the walls of your stomach are adapted for the acid, but when you make yourself sick it is not only the food that comes up, it is the acid too. This is harmful because it comes into contact with parts of your insides that arent adapted are begins to desovle them instead. Your really need to consider if you do actually need to lose weight or weather it is your consience saying "I must lose Weight". A good way to check is to log on to google and search 'Calculate BMI' click on one of the links and you are asked to enter your weight and height and this gives you a number to refer to a chart displayed. I hope this helped people who are struggling with eating disorders. x |

^see that just really ticked me off.
For the most part eating disorders aren't to look beautiful to other people, to look cool or for other "vain" reasons. It's about control. Being able to control what comes into your body and in the case of bulimia-- what goes out. It has nothing to do with trends. |

Have you ever had a serious eating disorder? Or was bulimic? Hate to be a 'lil grammar Nazi but it should not be "Or was bulimic." Was should be replaced by "been" or "ever been." Again, I'm only doing that to make your posts look more intelligent. Whenever I see a post with piss poor spelling or mis use of grammar it just causes me to focus on that one point instead of looking for the meaning of the post or what you're trying to convey. Thanks :) |
