Body Image Q's
Do you constantly see yourself as fat, even though others say you are not? Yes. But they don't see me naked, they only see me clothed and I try to wear flattering clothes.
What part of your body would you change? 1) Thighs-make them skinnier. 2) Stomach-toned, no love handles.

Do you constantly compare your bodies to supermodels/actresses? Yes, always.

Are you morbidly afraid to eat carbs? Carbs are evil.
Fat grams? Fat is even more evil than carbs
Calories? Over 500 calories is scary.
Are you often tired/fatigued? A lot of the time.
Do you feel more energized after eating food? No! I feel fat and gross.
Do you eat meat? Rarely.
Do you eat your food in a certain way? Slowly, chewing 15 times for each bite, unless I'm bingeing and then I gorge myself and it's sickening :-(
Do people tell you you look sick or famished? Not since I was 121lbs.
Have you ever thrown up blood? No.
Is your heart bpm above 49? Yes.
Do you have fainting spells from lack of eating? I get really dizzy a lot when I stand up, but I've never actually fainted, although I've been extremely close many times. I know how to stop fainting from happening.

Other Stuff
Do you think the media is at fault for the prevalence of eating disorders? Definitely, they're the ones promote thinness.
What's your opinion of Pro-Ana? Pro Pro Pro :-)
Do you have any other mental disorders?
What's your favorite food to eat? um nothing? if i had to choose I'd say cucumbers.
Favorite drink? Unsweetened Iced Tea or Hot Tea depending on if I'm hot or cold.
Do you often wish you didn't have an ED? I wish I were naturally really skinny, but if this is what I have to do, then I have to do it.
Do you want to recover? That's like asking me if I want to be fat and the answer to that is NO!
