Hi Deneb,
I don't get pro ana sites either. I have a very close friend who condems those sites, yet, clearly identifies with them. I fear if she ever posted on one she'll give give those girls 30 plus years of bad advice.
She'd never tell those girls that at age 46 she has heart damage and the bone density of someone 25 years older than she is. That doctors have told her that if she falls down her legs will snap like twigs. As she says, you can't reverse anything at this stage, so why give up restricting what I eat?
Not everyone who diets to lose weight develops an ED, I'm not saying you will, but what bothers me is that you want to be at the lowest possible weight with a healthy BMI.
