I find all your comments really inspirational! There are things I want to do in my life, and I just started to expiriment with this. I am not doing it to hurt myself, just to make myself happier. I always look in the mirror and I know I am slim, but there are certain things I want to get rid of, I need to get rid of to do what I want to do. It is hard for me, but I am struggling through it, finding other things to occupy my time. It just helps to know there are others out there who are feeling the same as me!

How did you lose the 25 pounds in 1.5 weeks?

I feel that girls should do whatever it takes for them to feel good about themselve. I use to be anorexic and I lost 25 lbs within 1.5 weeks. My mom noticed and she almost made me go to a hospital if I didn’t start eating. So yeah I started to eat again. I only gained 5 lbs back from the weight I lost but I never reached my goal weight. I am trying it again and I am healthy and I was then. It made my period lighter, but it didn’t stop it. I don’t know what the fuss is about, but I just think it’s a quick easy way to loose weight. That’s just my opinion though.

Hi GiVi,
It sounds like you’ve been there and speak from real, first-person experience; your description of this as sometimes the only alternative to suicide is pretty chilling. The support you’ve described — people being there for you, without trying to pressure you — sounds like it fostered relationships that you still care about and still check up on now and again. I hope those kinds of relationships and that kind of support can help make recovery the path of choice for many who are struggling with anorexia.
All the best,

Yo Greg, you’ve got to understand that this is sometimes the only way girls cqan vent about their issues rather that slitting they’re wrists. but girls, if you are sick… then its worth it. if your not, its not. then its just a waste of your precious already beautiful lifes. DONT BECOME ANOREXIC FOR TEH HECK OF IT as a survivor, i know what im talking about. Xanga was what helped me during EDNOS cure time, because those girls support you and talk to you, not pressure you into staying anorexic.. alot of the pro-ana communities are people trying to pick a healthier path to weightloss or gain. It never fully goes away, but there are ways to make it easier. Im still in recovery, but i still check up on my friends from Xanga to see how they’re doing, weather they’re still stuck there or in recovery. Check out the new Xanga weblog called Healtharexics or healthy Ana, they are all in recovery or trying hard to choose a better way. Thank you.

Hi Kalyn,
I really appreciate the importance of self-determination, and having complete autonomy over your own body. At the same time, these two things don’t seem to me to fit very well together: 1) “it’s a lifestyle”, and 2) “you realize the risk”. Why do I say that? Because there is a very significant risk for those suffering from anorexia nervosa that it will not be merely “a lifestyle” — and that it will, in fact, become something over which they can no longer exercise freedom of choice or self-determination, and which will ultimately kill them.
You’ve described hating being “fat”, and being “one of the 3 fattest cheerleaders”, and having a problem of self-discipline. From what you’ve said, it sounds like what you are really asking for is disciplined weight loss, not a life-threatening condition which may take away your freedom, would almost certainly make it impossible to perform as a cheerleader, and could end your life. Is there something else about anorexia nervosa that appeals to you, or is it weight loss that particularly appeals to you?
All the best,
Greg -

I absolutely support Anorexia. It’s not a disease, its a lifestyle. I believe that if you want to do something with your body, and you realize the risk, do it. I am trying to become anorexic, because I hate being fat. It hard looking into the mirror everyday and realizing that your one out of the 3 fattest cheerleaders on your squad. I really want some tips and some pro ana sites. My main problem is self discipline. Someone— PLEASE HELP ME.. email me or message me.. something.. [deleted] i have the same screen name for yahoo messanger or go check out my journal at greatestjournal.com my account is anorexic_nproud. thanks…

Hi folks,
I appreciate that many visitors might have happened upon this page while actually looking for information about becoming anorexic — or, possibly, while just looking for information about losing weight without necessarily knowing the full background and life-threatening nature of full-blown anorexia nervosa.
But I hope you’ll understand that it was never my intention to become a clearing-house for information about becoming anorexic, or to collect links to other sites that might promote anorexia. That’s why the several requests for tips or other information have gone answered.
Thanks for your understanding,
