girls with eating disorders are sometimes extremely thin. i am in neither of those categories. so my dream last night sucked. my friend told a youth pastor who told my parents (why was my dad there?) that because of my weight i needed to go somewhere for inpatient treatment. so, okay, i'm thinking fat camp. but it was a rehab. they dragged me into a room to sit alone for a few hours. so naturally, i slapped&kicked the door screaming, "i'm not even skinny" to nobody.
then they came in&forced me to eat. not normal food, like cereal or egg whites or celery or spinach. but a big greasy fast-food burger complete with drippy fries&a milkshake, which wasn't melting because the place was so goddamn cold. i was pissed. they kept telling me i needed to put on some weight before i could see the other patients.
some loony came in to "evaluate" me. to every question asked i would answer, "why am i here? i'm not even skinny." after a while they left me alone, until the next meal, which was the same. then the next. then i woke up. i was relieved to find that my stomach is still flat, sinking in a little when i'm lying down. my fingers are still cold, my rings still fall off them. i stood up to go check myself out in the mirror&all i could say was, "i'm not even skinny." disappointing morning. but i won't have to eat today. only two days of fasting total but i'll take it.

or:
skinny vs. average. whose side are you on? stay strong today, lovelies.

p.s. edit on the fast, i'm going to have a v8 so my total will be 70cals.
p.p.s. to claire, i want to be a marine biologist. if i'm too stupid for that, my backup plan is to be a trucker.

  1. The stereotype that makes people feel like if they aren't a skeleton in a deathbed, they aren't sick pisses me off. Sickness isn't measured by how thin a person is, but how active they are in unhealthy behaviors(do they disable a person from working or socializing?).

    Now we are both moody. XD

  2. scary scary dream.
    But waking up and realising it's not true is always nice (:
    I often dream that I've eaten an enormous pizza or something and wake up panicking. xx

  3. That would be like the worst dream ever.
    yeah, I'd definitely rather be skinny than average. When I saw that picture, I was like, well, she's not perfect, but she's not really fat, either... But then I saw that you'd put average under the picture and I got the idea lol.
    Stay strong, lovely. You will be skinny!

  4. God, that sounds so realistic. Scary. I can totally see that being made into a horror film based on real life...

  5. That seriously scared me at first. I was like "OH NO, WE LOST ZETTE!!!"
    But thank goodness it was just a nightmare.
    You are beautiful now, and you'll be beautiful in the future. Stay strong.
