Anorexic Pic of the Week

by Skinny Lady

Retired running gear. At a certain point, I realized it’s easier to starve than it is to run. If I were truly dedicated, I’d starve AND run. But I like to half-ass my eating disorder.

Starving is easier

LOL… “half-assing” the disorder, that’s a funny way to put it. I’m so not into exercising either.

I’m on a pretty extreme diet right now that borders on being anorexic. I’m only eating 500-600 calories a day. I’m trying to make myself eat that much but there’s some days where I don’t even want to eat that much. I was anorexic for a long time in the past and I’m still fighting the desire to do it. I don’t want to go back to that even though I desperately want to lose a lot of weight.

I would love to tell you to take the healthy route, the one that involves a good diet and exercise. But that would make me a hypocrite. I will say that 500-600 calories a day is beyond “extreme” and I hope that you are able to successfully overcome the self-destructive impulses you feel. I know I hope to one day overcome mine.

I had to choose between my eating disorder and running. I chose the latter. Now I am a fat runner

I went from bulimic to anorexic when I stopped exercising. Exercising means you need to eat. So I think half assing it, is full assing it
