Regarding the whole thin equals healthy bullshit. My great grandmother was a large lady for most of her life, and then she lost a lot of weight really quickly. She went from approximately 300 pounds to less than 100 in the space of a year, and then she died. Acute myelogenous leukemia will do that to you.
I've not been feeling well lately. My stomach hurts and I have to force myself to eat right now. The Eating Disorder part of my brain is thrilled about this. if we don't eat, we get thin! Yaaaaay!
Yeah, except getting thin probably won't happen unless I get really sick like my great grandmother did. My body is not wired for thin.
I just know, though, if I got really sick and started losing a butt ton of weight, people would be praising how "healthy" I look, even though my hair was falling out, my skin had the pallor of death, and I was so weak that I couldn't stand up.
I'd rip them a new one. Might be doing them a favor, so they could get rid of all those shitty ideas they'd been harboring.
