i have dealt with an eating disorder since the 7th grade. that is almost 5 years. if any of you ever feel so motivated by the way my body looks to the point where you feel like you HAVE to make a negative or sarcastic comment about it, go fuck yourself.

you do not know me and you don’t know the incredible struggle it’s been to return to regular eating habits and to learn how to fully love myself. i constantly deal with conflicting thoughts that could cause a relapse and i have to work hard to not lose the progress i’ve made.

i’m not asking for any sympathy AT ALL. i’m asking that you don’t ever make a mean or “funny” comment on someone’s body because you DO NOT KNOW THEM OR WHAT THEY’VE BEEN THROUGH. i love myself and a comment from an ugly-hearted stranger on the internet isn’t going to change that.

but that may not be the case for others who aren’t quite there yet. remember that none of you are dieticians or nutritionists or doctors and if you are, your opinion on someone’s “health” because of the way their body looks wasn’t asked for UNLESS IT EXPLICITLY WAS.
