[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why you felt the need to write such a long post whereas you could simply state 'my dislike of fasting is totally ungrounded and subjective'.

I fast, I am normal BMI, I eat healthy+enough, I love food, and I don't like when people label others with diagnoses when they have no clue what they are talking about.[/quote]

Because I live in the world and I find it disturbing that this sort of extreme body stuff is being normalized here to people who might not have the wherewithal to avoid an eating disorder and really harm themselves

People here are being so glib recommending that you go literally half the week without eating - and comparing it to religious fasting, which is done not for weight loss and NOT for half the week every week. I don't know any of you and if you want to starve yourselves into nothing while self-aggrandizing your disordered eating, then go for it. But there are real people who read these posts and get idea for how they can live, and I think you are really hurting those people.[/quote]
