I am not anorexic...
Check, check, check and check.
have tried different things but
i seem to be a food burning
machine of some sort stuck
on the high-setting. Sometimes
it amazes me how much i burn
away and how fast it happens.
""soy protein powder""
i`ll try that asap
I like it when the girls tell me what to eat ![]()

We dont have Freud in Scandinavia
Boys and their mothers, its special. But it gets
incredibly iffy fast to have someone mother
you in a relationsship...or maybe not, maybe
its a fine line, i have to admitt that my ex
sometimes grabbed my ear and told me to
settle down and i did as she said most of the
times
And i guess thats what mothers
do, but still its totally different, it has to be.
I also used to get asked if I'm a heroinist- I used to donate blood and always had the veins on my arms massively bruised. that plus being skinny used to give people the wrong ideas.
the fact is that I just have a good metabolism and hyperactivity, plus I hate the taste of grease so I eat mostly light things and no fast foods (that used-oil taste... bleh...).
personally I don't care that much though, if someone complains I'd just tell them that I don't like that tyre around their hips either but there's nothing I can do about it so meh.
that gets them off my back permanently.
That wouldn't do any good, to mock them for being fat. I'm sorry to hear what you've been through, but it is significantly less harassment then fat people get. I'm not hearing from the media that people need to fatten up, or go on the Biggest Gainer. What I'm hearing is everyone should be thin, and if they aren't something is wrong with them mentally or physically, they're too stupid to know what to eat and how to take care of themselves, ect ect.
I really do try to empathize with thin people however, the idea of someone thin who's upset over being called Anorexic or a junkie, then turning around and beating up on a fat person who hears non-stop something is wrong with them, is cruel.

I sort of disagree. it is "politically incorrect" to criticise fat people and it's considered rude to do it. I just want people to acknowledge that it's just as rude to criticise people for being too thin/short/tall/blonde whatever.
I normally wouldn't comment on other people's looks (I rarely do, and if I do it's always to compliment) but if someone feels the need to criticise me for something I have no control over, just to make themselves feel better, that I'm not going to conform to this.

Yeah it's good to give people a taste of their own medicine to see how they like that. It's also to state a point. I do that a lot and I don't care how bad it pisses them off. They need to learn.
I went to senior prom with a girl who had this problem. She certainly wasn't anorexic, but alot of people would tell her she was. Oddly enough she is probably one of the only girls I know who might be on on the spectrum (incredibly shy, resistant to change, ect.). Nothing ever happened between us since we were both far to shy and it was far to close to graduation, I still wonder from time to time if I could have done things differently, but then I remember that I can't change the past by dwelling on it and think about something else.

It's not "politically incorrect" enough, to where a fat person can get a job without being fired based on discrimination for their size. It certainly not "politically incorrect" enough to where fat people can call someone a sizeist, a person who discriminates and holds prejudice towards people who are fat, without being laughed out of the room.
Instead of making this a contest of who suffers the most. I suggest you become an ally for the size acceptance community. While most of the focus is on the overwhelming sizeism concerning fat people, there is an awareness the same discrimination can occur towards people who are too thin. You can start a blog and submit it to bigfatblog, although like I said right now there is much more focus on size acceptance regarding fat people, because there is more discrimination towards fat people. Perhaps it's an issue of you simply not being aware that:
A fat person has to fight to get proper health care, or even get health care regarding their state of health, vs having a doctor who will just throw diet pamphlets at them and tell them to loose weight first. A good site that exemplifies this is:
http://fathealth.wordpress.com/
Another site that discusses the numerous prejudices fat people fight every single day is:
www.bigfatfacts.com
Believe it or not, I have even been told by some people on this site something must be wrong with me, for refusing to understand I'm horribly unhealthy and should loose weight. I understand a part of that does come from a Aspie mindset, that everything is logical and is out of simply eating less and doing more. It's hard to convince them that the body doesn't behave based purely on logic, it does what it wants, and genetics are in a large part responsible for people being fat. Wouldn't life be boring if we were all the same, all had the same bodies, same skin, and same hair. Well, I'm sure that would make a lot of Aryans happy, but not me.
I said I didn't want to make this an issue about who suffers more, and I still stand by this. However, the reason I did go into more detail about fat bias, is because it seems to me the issue here is you not understanding really just how bad it is. That while I can empathize with your position all you want, it's not going to change how fat people are being harassed from seemingly all sides every day, for simply not abusing their bodies into thinness.
