Ht. 5'4", Wt. 158 - Teresa and Sabina...I have a feeling that you're implying to something that I said when commenting Isabella? I hope not...because I would never say anything rude or hurtful towards anyone. I know what anorexia is and I know it's not a phase, it's a life style and the mind of an anorexic is like living in a bell jar where they're just watching the outside world while being trapped in their own. They need help and guidance to safely recover from the illness...no one is to judge an anorexic/bulimic, no one is to point fingers and say they're stupid when they aren't in their position, when they aren't living with their state of mind. Anorexia is a serious disorder and I would never make fun of it...I just said anorexia is stupid (the illness) not an anorexic person...who am I to give someone a title? and one such as 'stupid"...that would be selfish and uncalled for, who am I to denounce a falling epidemic of teenage girls who aren't feeling comfortable in their own skin and are being influenced by the media's bone and skin woman? There was a time in my diet where I didn't eat for three days because I was frustrated with being on my plateau and yeah you can say that I was a temporary anorexic and I lost 6 lbs in 3 days and I was so excited yet but I felt drained, I felt dead and I knew if I didn't eat anything I would surely pass out. I ate on the 4th day because I almost collasped and when I was putting the food to my mouth, my hand was shaking because I was so weak. There's a story inside every head and the story inside the head of an anorexic can't be judged unless it's thoroughly read and looked into. Maybe my choice of words were vague, sorry if they were. I just wanted to explain what I meant because I felt that you two misinterpreted what I said and I felt sad that you would think I was a person who would be so ruthless. I'm misinterpreted a lot in my life and I just wanted to clear things up if there was any fog. If your messages weren't implied to me...well then I'll just feel like an idiot now.
