I recently stumbled over a site with some reasons to be anorexic, now I follow a few thinspo-blogs on tumblr and they all strive to be healthy, not skinny, so this just blew me away. To think that people actually believe this and live by it.

I’ve read a similar list once before, only with the addition of this reason:

“Fat people are so huge, people see through them and it’s like they don’t exist.”

Now is that a thing of beauty or what.

Now I’m not a native speaker, so I’m adding the list to this post (though it can be found HERE), and hope you get as good a laugh out of it as I did.

01.  You will be FAT if you eat today, just put it off one more day.
02. You don’t NEED that much food.
03. Fat people can’t fit everywhere.
04. Guys will be able to pick you up without struggling.
05. You’ll be able to run faster without all that extra weight holding you back.
06. People will remember you as “the beautiful thin one”.
07. If someone has to describe you, they’ll say “oh she weighs like 90, 100 lbs”.
08. Guys will want to get to know you, not laugh at you and walk away.
09. Being able to starve is an example of excellent willpower.
10. You will be able to see your beautiful, beautiful bones.
11. Bones are clean and pure. Fat is dirty and hangs on your bones like a parasite.
12. If you eat , eat with respect , not like a fat pig.
13. The models that everyone claims are beautiful, the spitting image of perfection, are any of them fat? NO!
14. Too many people in the world are obese.
15.People who eat are selfish and unrealistic.16.Only fat people are attracted to fat people.Do you want pigs to like you because you are one of them.
17. Anyone can have “inner beauty” but few can earn real beauty, inside as well as out.
18. You’ll be able to move as quietly and skilfully as a spider.
19. Only thin people are graceful.
20. If you slap a fat person you can see a shockwave ripple over their skin. That’s disgusting.
21. Do you want people to say “for gods sake get off me you’re crushing me!!!” or “you are so light” ??? 22. Underweight aka perfect body.
23. Ballerina? or beanbag?
24. I want to be light enough so a helium balloon could lift me and carry me to the clouds.
25. I want to walk in the snow and leave no footprints.
26. Starve off the parts you don’t need. They’re ugly and they drag you down.
27. Nothing cant be fixed with hunger and weight loss.
28. Saying “no thanks” to food is saying “yes please” to THIN!!!
29. Fat people are so huge, yet people look away from them as if they don’t exist.
30. The only time people do notice a fat person is when they get in the way of that beautiful thin girl walking by (ok that sounds really horrible i know.)
31. Have you ever seen a person NOT notice a walking skeleton.
32.Nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
33. Is food more important that happiness in life? I think not!
34. Eating is conforming to everyone else’s expectations.
35. When you start to get dizzy and weak you’re almost there.
36. Hunger is your friend and it won’t betray you like food.
37. Food is mean and sneaky. It tricks you into eating it and it works on you from the inside out making you fat, bloated, ugly and unhappy.
38. Think of anorexia as your secret weapon.
39. If you can name one reason to be fat, I’ll name a million and one to be thin.
40. Thin people look good in ANY kind of clothes.
41. Food rots your teeth.
42. Puffy cheeks, double chins and thick ankles– aren’t attractive.
43. Fatty areas stretch and sag as you get older.
44. Ever seen the arms of a fat person wave hello or goodbye?
45. Eating little to nothing saves you money!
46. The average (middle class) American wastes OVER $8,000 a year on FOOD ALONE…it goes in one end and out the other. That sure is a lot of sugar and fat! No wonder so many Americans are obese and overweight!
47. Fat people make their country look bad.
48. Big people sweat more and they smell bad.
49. Fat people die earlier.
50. You’ll be the envy of all the other girls.

52. You’re less likely to get food poisoning.
53. You won’t be exposed to all the chemicals and pesticides they put in food today.
54. You won’t get sweaty on hot days.
55. The word fat will only apply to you in a sarcastic way.
56. No one wants to see a fat person dance.
57. Beauty Queen? or Dairy Queen?

“Eating is conforming to everyone else’s expectations.”

Really? Is that a valid reason to to eat?

“Have you ever seen a person NOT notice a walking skeleton?“

Now to be fair, if I ever saw a walking skeleton I would notice it. And then most likely stab it and crush all the bones, before performing an exorcism. Maybe take some time to go on a quest to find the last golden coin, in case they turn out to be immortal.

Few men has put this as beautifully and adorably as Alan Davies, so I’ll let this video speak for me.

Please help me in the fight against shitty people, and eat some chocolate today!

Hello!

My name is Caroline and I’m here to blog about the things that annoy me, excite me, confuse me and inspires me.

I spend most of my time reading, lurking on tumblr, listening to music or sleeping. I’m rather boring, but I try to hide it with random comments and embarrassing outbursts. I enjoy pretty things, weird things and brains.

I’m lazy, I’m awesome, I’m troubled, I’m insecure, I’m stupid, I’m brilliant, I’m short, I’m useless, I’m confusing but most importantly I’m myself.

Take it or leave it.
