i agree. i doubt that people in the media that are super skinny are happy with their lives... i mean seriously... and if you were anorexic, wouldn't you become all brittle and junk? not a happy place to be... anorexia is a really sad thing... i've never had an anorexic friend, but i know people who've had friends that died from it. awwh man, my friend Grace was crying so bad cuz her friend died of it.

i wish there was something i could do...

people should learn to accept themselves.


It's WAAAY not that simple.
Even if you decide you want to love your body the way it is and accept yourself, you still can't change your inner mind.
Sometimes you just CAN'T accept yourself, even if you want to.

last year i was really good friends with this one girl and this year we didn't get to hang out much...but this year she went annorexic. she used to be something like 120 or something...now she's like 90...it's scary. she can't have children now she's messed herself up so bad. when she does try to eat, she can't hold it down because she's too dehydrated or something like that. the other day i was talking to one of my friends (who is friends with the girl i'm talking about) and she said she was going to go to the mall with her, but she couldn't because the girl had to go to the hospital. i can't imagine why someone would want to screw themselves up so much just to be skinny.

You're an idiot. Infact, go ahead, ask any guy if they find overly anorexic girls attractive.
I think you and your boyfriend are on your own there.

See, the funny thing is. Guys wouldnt want to date someone who looks like a stick. so basically its just those types of girls who think they look beautiful when they look like a stick.

Agreed.
Crash dieting is one of the most stupid things you can do, but I guess some people can't help it. I'm naturally thin, but if I try to eat healthy people immediately assume I'm crash dieting. There's a difference between a healthy diet, which will give you more energy, even out your skin, and provide the nutrients your body needs, and crash dieting which does NONE of the above.

you dont have to be skinny and stick thin to be beautiful
if ur friends r ur friends cuz of ur looks,
then they're not ur friends
most of my friends are skinny too,
but i dont let it get to me!
sure im not the happiest about my figure,
but im not gonna try to starve myself
to be this media conjured up twisted image of the pretty girl!!!! _dry.gif
we're people and we were made to be unique
if we were all the same then i would die of boringness
my friends love me for who i am as a person,
not because of looks
the last thing you have to do is to learn how to love yourself.
dont crash diet because in that time that u are crash dieting you are partly
destructing your body
So love others, love your family, and most importantly love yourself.
because everything happens for a reason

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

Why are you capitalizing every letter ? It's annoying.

I think it's stupid to go crash-dieting and all that, but im a hypocrite cos I used to struggle with it.

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.
