I HATE (yes, i know that's a strong word, but i soooo mean it) when people talk about eating disorders like they "so get them" when they totally don't! This speaker came to my school today and talked about responding to your call in life, blah, blah, blah. BUT she had the guts to throw in her two cents about things would get in the way of our "inner goodness" and eating disorders was one of them. She might of well have said "everyone whose had an eating disorder raise your hand! Okay, all of you are pieces of crap and worthless and selfish brats." because that was her main message. that this is all attention seeking, self-absorbed crap, and we must actually enjoy starving ourselves or getting sick all the time! I wanted to stand up and yell at this woman as if my life depended upon it because she made me so darn mad!!! Plus, right now I am on no meal plan and in reality I think I'm eating a completely reasonable amount of food, but ed keeps trying to tell me that I'm eating waaaaay too much and saying I'm hungry is just an excuse, even though I know now that my body doesn't lie to me, it's really hard to believe and this woman did not help matters!!!!
