A word to the "wise"; a bit of PERSONAL insight

hiya so yea i've been checking out this and other forums, been reading some ppl's pleas and what not---and also posts from non-ana/mias. Like one's, for instance, in which he/she went off on a "non-judgmental" rant on how he/she wonders why we strive to be so thin---how being so thin is not sexy but hideously unattractive---how having fat is good for men to grab on to---so why do we do it? how can we really expect someone to understand what a lot of us don't even understand ourselves?

In truth, i agree with the things said above; i personally don't think being rail thin is very beautiful, but then why do i continue to strive for it? Call it a sick fantasy if you will; i want to be skin and bones---not for the reason that i think it is the quintessence of beauty, but rather that i'm in search for a sense of accomplishment. A battle of mental strength over weakness, which in this case is succumbing to the guilty pleasure of food---a battle of control over the physical body and its unworthiness of such desires...

"the word is control. And that is my ultimate---to have control...."

Turnip (Brassica rapa L.) is a root Brassica crop and has been used as a vegetable for human consumption in Europe since prehistoric times. Turnip root has been a popular livestock fodder for at least 600 years wherever the crop can be grown. For most of that time turnip roots have been managed as forage. Researchers in the United States determined in the early 1900s that turnip roots are valuable energy sources for young ruminant animals. However, livestock farmers at that time were turning away from the Brassica root crops (which also include rutabagas or swedes) for fodder because much hand labor was required for the production and utilization of the large roots. One study showed that the labor requirement on a nutrient basis for these crops was three times that needed for corn silage production.

yeah I dont get it all but what I would day your saying it Ana/Mia is a thing of mental opinion. I dont get by guys like curves when I see something with curves I see pure fat. I get being thin. I get seeing bones. I thin being rail thin. I dont get why people without an ED think they understand us. They try forcing us to eat and forcing us to get help. I mean I look at food I see pure lard and its gross it takes me an hour to eat a normal meal because I hate food so much. I agree with you though. I dont expect someone to understand to me when I really dont get why I am like I am. I love losing weight, and I love the thought of one day seeing my bones. I DONT CARE WHO U R OR WHAT U R EVERYONE IN THE WORLD ALWAYS HAS A THOUGHT OF LOSING WEIGHT BUT ANA/MIA'S ARE JUST THE PEOPLE WHO ARE UPFRONT ABOUT IT WE HAVE THE WILL POWER AND HAVE THE DETERMINATION I DON'T.. get why people pick on us and force food in our mouths when were doing what everyone else wants. When you look at someone you either say wow i love there body, or ew there gross and fat. there is no to thin or to fat You either like there body or hate it. When people who dont have an ed look at us they go wow I want your body but why do they make us eat. How do I know this people at my school know I am ED and I dont care but they still say I love your body but you need you get fatter. I mean they say I love your body but please eat. Its like if you love body so much then why do you want me to get fat.

I know that feeling. A lot of my original motive to be so thin was so guys wouldn't want to be with me. who wants to cuddle bones?
