Obese vs anorexic?

Question

k, this is weird, I mean the world is full of obese kids and yet we worry that kids are dieting!! I know alot of them are anorexic but still, not all of them are. Like when I was in high school ( a year ago) it was like if you didn't eat and extra large poutine and capacino for every lunch you were some anorexic girly girl, but then so many of the people saying this were over weight. Some teenages want to be heathy! I'm thin and can eat alot so everyone thought I was bulemic but really i'm just careful about when, what and how much I can eat, I exercise. What do you think about this?

I'm not saying either one is healthy I'm just saying the right now the world make the issue black and white, like your one or the other.

Answer 1

In our society anorexic is an exxageration for thin people that fat people are jealous of. Anorexia is really a mental problem that leads to smeone dying of starvation. It is like whore or slu†. A woman is nice to a man and then she is called a whore or a slu* when she is not a prostitute. The site below tells how anyone can be thin for llife.

Answer 2

There's a middle option here. Not everyone has to be either anorexic or obese. It's possible for someone to have a healthy relationship with food, and a healthy weight. And that's what we want. When kids who are already a healthy weight start dieting, that's cause for concern in a way it wouldn't be if the kid were actually overweight.

Both are bad, and both are something to try to work on.

Answer 3

You sound like a very sensible person. As long as you eat enough and get enough of the essential vitamins and minerals a day, you're doing fine. I know exactly what you go through though. I've been accused of the same thing, but I just can't eat as much as people think I should be able to. But I also know a girl who was super skinny that didn't eat anything but junk food. That isn't healthy either.

Answer 4

Wow . properly if somebody is anorexic it actual freaks me out & it takes them an prolonged time to bypass returned to a common length, yet comparable factor with obese. i assume i elect Anorexic : /

Answer 5

i agree its much easier to tell someone whos too skinny to gain weight then tell someone whos over weight to lose weight. yet the world is mostly over weight. its society, is the day and age. and one day itll change. but for now its all the fast fixins we got going on and the parents feeding there kids processed junk day in and day out because they are too lazy and tired and busy to cook a meal or plan them. its the american way. i love our country, but we need to do something about the health issues here. exercise periods should be twice as long in schools and kids should be shown and taught from and early age at school and at home and on tv healthful ways to eat. just like finally they have the truth smoking and drug ads, we need them about food, and the processed crap over weighing our people. i think people being too thin isnt the problem, its easy for them to gain weight, its the people being overweight thats the problem, because its much harder in this society to lose weight. and majority of people who do lose weight fall back into those yoyo habits that they were raised on. i look at the parents. i blame the parents. i look at them and think u need to teach yourselfs and your kids how to eat healthy. its one thing to gain weight from being sick, or having meds, but its another to gain it from lack of common sense and eating big macs and fries all day long!!!!

Answer 6

neither obesity or anorexia is healthy....there's a big difference between being slim and being life-threatening starving/skinny
