[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay. Several people think she severly restricts food. How would that be different than being anorexic? Where do you draw the line?[/quote]

I said that. Anorexia as a disorder has nothing to do with weight. Extreme thinness is sometimes but not always a symptom. Anorexia is a mental disorder/illness that at its core is about control, not weight loss.  You start out feeling like you're a master of self control, but in the end, it controls you, not the other way around. I don't think Kate is there yet. I think she's still in the driver's seat. But she is playing a dangerous game, especially considerlong how little control she must feel she has in other areas of her life.  [/quote]

Severely restricting your diet does not make you an anorexic or have an eating disorder. Again, this is wishful thinking on your part.

Would you call an otherwise healthy vegan anorexic?

How about people like me who shun junk food and packaged foods.  Sure in the context of a standard American diet, you can call that a severe restriction.  I call that not wanting to eat crap.[/quote]

You clearly don't understand what food restriction means in the context that the PP was talking about.  It's not about picking and choosing what KINDS of food you eat.  It's about restricting ALL types of food.  Or in some cases eating food, but doing so at dangerously low levels of caloric intake.  Vegan/healthy food choices do not apply here.[/quote]

Okay, so you're basically calling her an anorexic.  How exactly do you know that she restricts ALL foods?[/quote]

PP doesn't know one iota about this woman's life - but she sure does enjoy conjecture!  [/quote]
