    How old are you really?


    MFP tends to help those with healthy goals. Those with irresponsible goals, unhealthy approaches to weight loss, and wanting to put their bodies into potentially dangerous situations get told to seek specialized medical help. Those looking to lose weight in a responsible manner and reach a healthy weight receive advice and guidance.

    And the person starting this thread deactivates after their unhealthy behaviors got called out in another of their (now deleted) threads ... an expected outcome.

    Helping people safely reach healthy weights is something to encourage. In the now deactivated original poster's case, she revealed that she is already drastically underweight and had a goal weight that would bring her to a BMI of 15 ... an extremely unhealthy endeavor that requires enabling, not help, to reach. All to often on MFP, truly helping somebody requires pointing out that they are doing something unhealthy and attempting to guide them onto a different course of action or highlighting their need for specialized professional help.
