Well, as far as that bad habit I mentioned, I, um, tend to skip more than one meal. But I do make sure that I get calories of some sort like in a soda or juice or something. I have at times gone the whole day without any solid food, just liquids. Or maybe a cookie or popcorn, or something small and too basic like that. I might have a sandwich but nothing more. But then I also have phases where I will eat "normally"--meaning two or three meals in a day. Not always entirely nutrutious meals, but nonetheless meals. The eating thing is probably my main bad habit. But I often times will take caffeine pills during these "alternate eating habits", too. I really don't have habits any worse than these, but there are others that contribute I'm sure to the eating habits. My weight is usually pretty much maintained (give or take, of course) depending how long the no-eating phase is.

Why do I like the way I feel? Well, I like to feel thin. I know that I am thin and I intend to stay that way. I like the way "thin" feels. My weight is in the lower end of normal range right now and usually is thereabouts. Sometimes though, I admit it bothers me about being thin because I feel my ribs poking, like today. It's not comfortable, but it doesn't hurt like it did once before when I was like maybe 100 pounds at most. I never knew till then that being thin could cause physical pain. But that was 20 pounds less than I about weigh now. Something to think about. How do I really feel?
