A good quote to live by !!!

I love that quote! I also love "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels!":happy:

Both quotes are anorexic mottos.
I don't support either.
I will live to eat AND eat to live. They're not mutually exclusive. I will enjoy my food as it nourishes me.
Cake tastes pretty damn good. So does sushi. Skinny feels different for every person, it's not an automatic happiness ticket.

While I agree that they might be interpreted the way you said, I think the meaning of these quotes depends on what a persons PoV is. Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels can be interpreted as pro-Ana however its also a way for somebody to remember that that cheesecake you wanna eat is not worth it. I certainly don't wanna live to eat. I love to eat and considers food to be one of the best things in my life however it would be a very sad day in my life if I todl myself that I live to eat.

Cake tastes pretty damn good to you but for others, having a goal weight feels even better.

You sound like a smart woman however you're twisting quotes even though you know that they're not meant to be pro-Ana. Also you're trying to force your ideals over others. If they wanna be skinny in a healthy way, I don't see anything wrong. Any there is nothing unhealthy about not wanting to live to eat or reminding yourself that the X-Large pizza you ordered might taste good right now but feeling your goal weight might feel better.

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

Best one on the thread.

^^^^^THANK YOU You definitely understand what I meant ) :happy:

People take the word "hi" the wrong way on the internet....

ARE YOU CALLING ME A STONED OUT HIPPY?

No, I am simply acknowledging your existence and offering a salutation to coincide with that.

ARE YOU CALLING ME STOOOOOPID >?

No, I am calling you intellectually challenged.

Xaye, when I say Hi to you, you should assume that I AM calling you STOOOOOOOPID!!

our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate but that we are powerful beyond measure.

This is terrific - thanks for sharing. Fear of success holds a lot of people back (myself included).

Heres the full version of that quote

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others

***DISCLAIMER: this is not meant as a pro-anorexia quote, though it has been bandied about pro-ana websites, I am aware. I have had friends & family with that problem and I know how impossible it is to overcome. It is meant as a pro-exercise as a method to achieve a healthy lifestyle***

Here's to a long, healthy, happy life! :drinker:

Agree with this. I had steak and ice cream for dinner (14 oz. of top sirloin and 1.5 servings of Ben and Jerry's Mint Cookie ice cream). I am in very good shape (although not very modest), and still enjoy delicious foods regularly. You can eat whatever you want... you just can't eat however much you want of whatever you want.

OTOH, I don't support using this mentality as an excuse for an unhealthy lifestyle.
