[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worry that you are too obsessed with your sisters weight and activities.  You have posted this multiple times and I’m not sure you’ll be happier losing the weight, which you don’t even need to do-  you are perfectly proportionate according to any chart.  You probably have bigger bones than she does, or a larger frame.  I hope you find what you’re looking for and some peace too. [/quote]

I recognize OP too. Put down the measuring stick!!! Your sister's exercise and weight has nothing to do with you or your worth. I think you need to examine why you are so competitive with her, probably with a therapist. It is not something that should be occupying so much space in your head. [/quote]

Especially because your sister has a pretty severe eating disorder.  I’m one of the posters eating about 1400-1500 a day but I am in my 50s and don’t exercise a ton.  You said your sister runs 5-10 miles a day and yet only eats about 1300 calories (and I’m guessing isn’t menopausal yet)—-that’s really disordereed.  She should be more in the range of 1800-2200 depending on her size and metabolism if she’s running 5 miles a day.  If she’s running 10 a day, should be even more.  [/quote]

You can’t call someone disordered based on this information.  Maybe sis has a super slow metabolism.  Maybe if she ate 1800-2200 calories a day she’d blow up like a balloon.[/quote]
