I am so tired of the trend where athletes or self dx anorexics are "happy" about letting go Weight lifting and being conscious of what you eat isn't bad. A lot of body builders develop eating disorders. I recognize this is an issue. I don't think letting go is the solution. If you were truely confident with the new you then you wouldn't need to seek validation.   This chick isn't fat like we're used to but she is clearly on the way to a full blown fatty. Binge eating is an eating disorder!!! Trading an eating disorder for an eating disorder and bragging about it is ridiculous.  Your life shouldn't revolve around food. If abstaining from certain foods severely effects your mental health then you need better coping mechanisms.
