I was told to go and get an eating disorder today.

So I’ve been working out kind of regularly but it’s been hard to fit into my schedule consistently because I have a lot of exams and revision right now, despite the inconsistency, I have been feeling much happier and optimistic about my current weight and my journey to losing weight.

But today in class my friend was browsing reddit and saw a fat joke that he thought would be funny to show me, he was reluctant at first because he thought I would be sensitive about him implying that I’m fat but eventually showed me anyway because as long as it’s a joke that I’m okay with then I see no harm in it right? Well he shows me it and I laugh and he then hurries to say that he didn’t mean to say I’m fat and then went back to his phone and mumbled “Getting an eating disorder might be a good idea though”. I just kind of sat there in shock, I wasn’t sure how to react and couldn’t think quick enough to make a witty remark back. As someone who’s dealt with a minor eating disorder before and conquered it on my own, this just felt like the biggest punch to the gut honestly. It almost made me think oh well what’s the point in continuing to go to the gym anyway since my progress in feeling happier obviously hasn’t been for shit and I could just shortcut it with an eating disorder.
