#underweight
And they banned me without giving me an ability to answer that no, I *personally* wouldn’t say that, but it *still* doesn’t give a right for someone to rape the unwilling party.
Grow the fuck up or go to jail for promoting rape of gay people.
I would say that! Like in a heartbeat I would say that. I’m pretty sure I have said that.
So you tell people off for being fat and having an eating disorder but also willingly and on purpose trigger said eating disorder.
Yeah just fuck you
Just because for some people this blunt approach could be eye-opening doesn’t mean it’s for everyone. Specially if they have an ed and trying their best to treat it, professionals involved or not, you as an outsider aren’t one (even if you had similar experiences). Why would you purposely say that? Yeah, you don’t have to play into ones “delusions” (like some people call it) but intentionally doing that is morally questionable in my opinion. @transmedicalism-saves-lives
First off? Fat people don’t have restrictive eating disorders, they have excessive eating disorders. Anything that makes them eat less is doing a favor. Second, if they’re trying to sleep with me I have every right to inform them of the reason that ain’t gonna happen.
Yes to having that right, but saying it “in a heartbeat” sounds like not caring about them at all. As if you were doing them a favour by causing a guilty conscience. I like going by the rule if they can’t fix it within a minute keep it to yourself, especially if they are trying to fix it already. If they were pressuring you or whatever like cornering you by all means you don’t have to be nice imo. Personally I think your approach is unnecessarily provocative and will do more harm than good. People in general respond more to support and help than being that blunt.
Plus I think what they meant by “eating disorder” was anorexia/bulimia, not compulsive eating. Which is truly an assholish thing to do to someone with these disorders.
But yeah, you can reject someone without triggering dysphoria. There’s a big difference between “I’m not into trans people, sorry” and “FUCK YOU, YOU SICK DEGENERATE RAPIST, YOU’LL ALWAYS BE A HOMOPHOBIC MAN/WOMAN NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO!!!”
Whatever happened to “you don’t need to give a reason to reject someone?”
Point taken. If you do give a reason, just don’t be an asshole about it.
It’s also incredibly vile to insist that fat people only have excessive eating disorders. If you refuse to acknowledge that anorexia can (and oftentimes does) occur in fat people, you’re… literally just a piece of shit, I don’t know how else to say it.
Anorexia is literally characterized by dangerously low body weight. This is what happens when people start self-dx’ing.
honey, you’re not a doctor, and you obviously know jack shit about eating disorders. please, for the love of god, look up “atypical anorexia” and stop spouting bullshit you have no clue about?
Dude you’re straight up wrong. Fat people aren’t limited to binge eating disorders. You’re clearly aware that you’re wrong and all you’re doing is digging yourself a deeper hole. You’re wrong. Get over it.
You don’t have to be at a dangerously low weight to be anorexic. You can catch an illness before it becomes incredibly serious and treat it then. Just because an anorexic fat person is however many pounds doesn’t mean they haven’t lost a large amount of weigh in a short period of time. It doesn’t mean they won’t eventually become dangerously underweight.
Just face it. You’re not correct here.
I never thought my eating disorder was real cause I was never severely emaciated. Yes I was underweight and yes I had a feeding tube at one point, but people would always make comments like “You are extremely skinny, but it doesnt look like you have an ed”. Now my brain is constantly like prove it to yourself and get THAT skinny. Then another part of my brain is like, that’s so stupid and will only make you more miserable. Anyone relate or am I just crazy lol?
The Routine:
I’m giving away this basic diet plan that many dietitians give out and many athletes, such as Michael Phelps, use. I really don’t care if you do it or not - I can’t make you work hard, and once you adjust it isn’t hard work.
Talk to your Doctor:
If you’re reading this then chances are that you already have concerns regarding your diet. Be sensible. Especially if you have a known injury or condition that might impair your ability to exercise or eat properly.
The First Thing To Do:
Make sure that you are actually overweight. Females in particular tend to deem themselves overweight when they aren’t. Check your BMI. If you can’t read your BMI properly from a lack of know how, don’t Google it! This is something for you to ask your GP/Doctor/Nurse to check out. Keep in mind that nurses can only give advice and opinions. To my knowledge they aren’t qualified to give educated and fully informed advice to someone.
Step #1 - Moderation:
I can’t say anything more than moderation is the key to this diet. You need to limit how much you eat and how often you eat it. Not the things you eat.
Ideally you should be eating 3 small meals a day and 3 snacks throughout the day. But I can’t tell you how much you should eat. If you are around 95 kg then I would recommend about 15-20 grams of whatever you want for breakfast, to 30-40 grams of whatever you want for lunch and dinner.
You should be eating once every 2-3 hours. So if you wake up at 10AM you eat 15 grams of cereal and by 11AM, perhaps eat a snack (such as a banana) and by 1PM you should be eating 30 grams of lunch.
But it is all dependent on how much is actually best for you. You should figure out how much you eat and adjust it accordingly.
Youcan have things like McDonalds every now and again. Once a week isn’t even horrible. You have to stick to eating 30-40 grams of whatever you want and instead of ordering fizzy drinks you order the light/zero equivalent of them. If you order juice instead; that is better. But people tend to go full-pelt into their diets too fast and then just crash.
Step #2 - Exercise:
Exercise is the Yang to moderation’s Yin. You need balance in life.
The minimum anyone should really be exercising, in my opinion, is 4 times a week.
If your goal is weight loss you shouldn’t be hitting the weight bench. Lifting adds muscle, so just lifting weights is not ideal. Even if you mix in weight lifting with cardiovascular exercises such as running, it isn’t great because when you gain muscle it makes it difficult to determine how much weight you have actually lost.
I’d recommend you do four 30 minutes + (dependent on how fit you are) sessions of cardio a week. Running and swimming are both examples of cardio exercises.
I, personally, prefer swimming. When you have good swimming technique swimming is generally much better for your body, can burn higher rates of calories when you swim for the same amount of time you run (although this is dependent on how good of a runner or swimmer you are) and it is generally better for your metabolic system.
Step #3 - Hobbies:
A hobby can be really beneficial to getting in shape. It makes exercise fun for those who don’t think it is. Hobbies don’t have to be serious, here is a list of hobbies that are fun and are labelled on how intense of a sport it is. (Keep in mind this is my opinion on the sport’s intensity - it might vary in your experience):
- Longboarding/Skateboarding. (Light)
- Archery (Light)
- Tennis (Mild)
- Badminton (Mild)
- Surfing (Mild)
- Kickboxing/Thai Boxing (Intense)
- Judo (Intense)
- American Football/Rugby (Intense)
- Swimming (Light/Mild/Intense - Controllable)

Feel free to use this, or not to use it. I hope it helps!
When I’m finally underweight will I then feel like I’ve achieved something?
