You know you're anorexic when...

[contranym]

I remember seeing one of these in the bulimia section. I thought I'd bring it over here. I'll start:

You buy another scale because the two you already own give you weights that are too different from one another so a third will do the trick.

You feel apples are fattening.

and go:

[distorted_thoughts]

when you sit for 2 hours infrom of a cereal bar debating wether ating it will make you look fatter tomorrow

[twiggy]

(I'm odd with drinks and calories.)

... when you even stopped drinking sugar-free Red Bull because it's 8 calories per can (you'd rather drink diet coke then 'cause it's just 1 cal).

... when you're worshiping goddess Ana by participating in eating disordered behaviors such as fasting or restricting.

... when you would prefer going supermarket shopping then clothes shopping

Anyways mine are
when you call 200 calories a binge
and when you know every imaginable thing about nutrition and healthy eating but apply none of it to your own life.

You have the same talk with your doctor somewhat word by word every single appointment and leave feeling more positive to get better. She tells you what to eat, when to eat blah blah and you nod and agree it's the best thing for you and that your going to do it! Week later you crash and a week after that you have the same conversation again!

When you gain 1/2 lb and sudenly feel like you have gained 1353 lbs haha
