I was anorexic in 2003. I lost tons of weight. I lost best friends but gained a boyfriend. I suppose that evens out. I lost weight and lost family supprot. Gained confidence, but lacked nutrition. I guess it all comes down to...would you rather be fat and unhealthy ot thin and unhealthy?? Either way I'm always thinking about food, calorie content and the best way to compensate. If the psychological issues are the same....then I'd rather be thin....bones feel so appealing. The emptiness is as addictive as alcholol...
