GRRRRRRRRRRR! No you don't! You don't know what it's like to be all wrapped up in calories, exercise, food and all the obsession that goes with an eating disorder. Not to mention the expense from all the medical bills. And the disruption of your life.

What comments from ignorant folks have annoyed you?
I had someone say I wish I was as skinny as you...and that same person said I wish I could starve myself like you do.

People really are ignorant...they truely dont have any concept of the mental anguish of obsession and self abuse and individual with a eating disorder goes through. And like you said the financial toll it takes is enormous.
