> I was xxx lbs at the beginning of Sept. Now I'm xxx lbs. My pdoc told me not to lose any more weight, but I'm not going to listen to her.
Why do you do this? You've got plenty of evidence that paying attention to your pdoc improves the quality of your life. Why do you consistently decide to ignore her advice?

> Deneb*Great. You've read those descriptions about Anorexia Nervosa that say it's about needing control. Fine. Great. Now you can make your "symptoms" fit the diagnostic criteria. Whoohoo. Another reason not to concentrate on your studies. Another reason to flunk out of another semester.
Deneb? I don't know why you want to have an eating disorder. You've got enough other problems. I feel quite offended when you post this sort of thing, perhaps because I feel as though it trivializes real eating disorders. Maybe because when I read this sort of thing, I feel as though there must be something wrong with me because I *don't* enjoy this as much as you seem to.
I hope you get help with your real problems.
