I hope that everyone will please read this comment! I am a recovering victim of an eating disorder and trust me, I know it is a hard time in your life. The way some of you girls discuss eating disorders is probally the reason I am sitting at my computer crying right now. I know what it feels like to feel fat, be made fun of, never feel “skinny” enough…but the truth is we need to learn to love and accept ourselves! We need to ban together to stop the digusting trend of pro Ana and Pro Mia sites, eating disorders are a serious life threatening disease. Instead all of you requesting these sites need to visit recoveru sites such as http://www.something-fishy.org or http://www.NationalEatingDisorders.org please just do me a favor and visit these sites! I am not being critixal of anyone with an eating disorder, but we do not need to lose weight! We need to be healthy and happy young women, and this is only acheived through proper nurtition habits. You lose more weight by eating healthy over a prolonged period of time and excercising than by purging or starving yourself to death! One last thing to remeber: does it matter how skinny you look in your coffin? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE go to the pro-recovery websites and lets work to together to stop this deadly epidemic among women!

I Can’t Believe you guys… how can you support anorexia? it’s a disease. and a very serious one at that.. i don’t believe that it is healthy in anyway and if you are so desperate to loose weight, anorexia is the pussy way to do it. if you are so lazy that you can’t go to the gym, eat right, and loose the weight the right way, then you don’t deserve ur body. you take everything forgranted. the way that you talk about wanting to loose the weight the fast way is ridiculous… You people need pro help. people will love you no matter how fat or skinny you are.. so just stop this madness please.

Being skinny is something i’ve always focused on, ever since i can remember, but i never actually did anything about it until i was in 6th grade, i continued onto not eating and lost accessive amounts of weight, after that i decided i needed to stop and so i started eating again, im not fat at all right now, but i’d really liketo lose more weight, i’ve tried being bullemic but i dont have a certain glande in my throat so i can stick my whole finger all the way down my throat and not throw up, if you can, pleaseeee give me some tips on being anorexic again,
