people comment on how much i'm eating? my family tries to be supportive, but my brother doesn't know. if i told him, he'd tell me to"get over it" or "just stop". he was a student athlete and has never in his life had weight or food issues. he has zero empathy for such things. he's maybe 120 soaking wet. the national guard actually made him gain a few pounds before he went to basic.

the other night, i wanted to starve, but i made myself eat dinner. after i had served myself, dad and bryan were like "is that ALL you're eating?" occasionally, my dad and kayla still "check on me" when i'm in the kitchen to make sure i'm not bingeing. (they know.) and at times, they've commented at dinner and said things like "wow. are you SURE you want more food?" the other night, bryan said, "you hardly ate anything. you just moved food around." i had eaten a chicken breast, some corn, and a few bites of rice.

i wanted to scream! you don't make comments like that to a drug addict, or alcohalic. why is it socially acceptable to make comments about SOMEONE ELSE'S food and SOMEONE ELSE'S eating habits? why is it acceptable for our families and other loved ones to comment on our weight and other personal things just because we have eating disorders? so what do i do? i can't just yell at bryan when his girlfriend is over for dinner. how do i say something without making myself and others uncomfortable?
