FOOD
Posted by Ana The Rexic in Guilt on Jul 10th, 2010 | 3 commentsI’m going to Ecuador with school in 6 days.
I am also a recovering anorexic, who is only allowed to go on the expedition because i’ve gained 5lbs and proved that I will eat while i’m there.
I continue to eat (as I see it) LOADS of food in order to gain weight to lose while there, as we are trekking for 5 hours a day, every day.
I’m really excited about the trip, but one of my main reasons for being excited? The fact I get to lose weight while i’m there, then come home, and am ALLOWED to continue losing weight and become disordered when i’m back.
Sad thing is, my mum thinks i’m perfectly fine and really fully recovered. I don’t have the heart to tell her that the only reason i’m eating now is because I know I get to starve later.

That’s sad. Instead of going to Ecuador you should check in to an eating disorder clinic. You have a big problem that you need to look at if you want to live
personally, as a slightly overweight man i have to say i am completely perplexed by anorexics. doesn’t good food lure you to eat more of it? like how can you resist a delicious brownie or cupcake with lots of frosting?
Anorexia is a control issue, I believe
