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 |

Because I was asking. I had a friend who was pretty much obsessed with her looks and she kept saying she was fat and how boys didn't like fat girls. it annoyed me as hell, but I didn't really think she'd become serious about it. I know what she said is true (about being able to control herself, because I had a eating disorder that had nothing to do with the way I look at myself), but it's not the only reason people have eating disorders. Control is the main factor though, but what caused my friend's eating disorder is her vanity. She did a lot in 6th grade just to make herself look prettier than everyone else (she looked like a freaking high schooler and i believe she even dated some?) and I guess she couldn't control herself and took it a step further.
