You know what really bothers me?
That the idea that "thin" is healthy. I get so sick of people telling me "you look great! You've lost weight! You look so much healthier!" You know what? When I was 50 pounds heavier than I am today, I was healthier. I have only lost this weight BECAUSE of being sick. Just because I have lost weight due to being ill does not mean I am healthy. I am not losing weight in a healthy way. If I were, my hair wouldn't be falling out, my skin would not resemble a reptile, I would be able to eat without having to be near a bathroom because of having to go so soon after eating. Yes, I'm losing weight. Yes, my figure looks better. But, no. I am not healthier. Thin does not equal good health.
