Today, after weeks, I've finally reached my goal and lost 10 lbs. My sister got jealous about me losing weight, and told my parents and coworkers that I'm anorexic. Hello, intervention. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my family held an intervention and told me I needed to lose weight. It probably would've had more impact if they hadn't done this over video chat while stuffing their faces at an all-you-can-eat buffet. FML
Today, I saw my parents for the first time in 11 weeks. They commented on how much weight I lost. I told how due to stress, I hadn't been able to eat anything for the past two weeks and I was basically unintentionally starving myself. They told me to keep it up. FML
Today, I told my mom I lost 30 pounds because of an eating disorder. She told me to keep up the good work. FML
Today, I overheard my ripped, handsome, genetically perfect brother telling my mom how "fat people" make him "nervous". I have only recently accepted my weight, after struggling for years. I now understand why my brother rarely talks to me. FML
Today, I got to see my best friend for the first time in months. Her first reaction was to say, "Wow, you gained a lot of weight." I actually lost a fair bit. FML
Today, after I completely starved myself for a week and exercised every day in an attempt to lose weight, I instead gained 5 pounds. FML
Today, I went to my parents' house. I recently lost about 30 lbs. My mom hugged me and said, "Aww, you're not my chubby baby girl anymore." She then said she wished I were still fat because she missed it. She's the reason I lost the weight; she used to tease and taunt me. Thanks Mom. FML
Today, I proudly told my family I lost 15 pounds. My dad looked me up and down and said, "Well, you've got a looooong way to go." FML
Today, a coworker complimented me on losing weight, and said that she wished she could drop a few pounds too. I was too embarrassed to tell her that the only reason I've lost weight is because I haven't been able to afford to eat. FML
Today, when my mother-in-law told me I was losing weight, my husband started laughing. FML

Tell them about her having an over-eating disorder. Works the same way.

Does your sister realize that if anorexic you would gain weight not lose it. The only way you would lose weight is if you were anorexic for months.

anorexic people don't eat. so how would they gain weight if they don't eat?

Anorexia is a eating disorder where people suffering from the disease don't eat to lose weight and fear that they will gain weight if they do eat. Since, the body is taking in no nourishment it will begin to consume its own muscle and fat. So, the victim will be losing weight not gaining it.

And this is about the time you tell everyone that she has overeating issues

has no one noticed that she lost ten pounds in two weeks? that is not something you can do with proper diet and exercise. her family has every right to investigate. sorry op, ydi.

I guess I mean to say you can't do it in a healthy manner. Safe weight loss is 1/2 - 1 lb / week. anything faster than that is very bad for you, and your metabolism will slow way down and the weight will come back. I recently had a friend have to get their gallbladder out after years of yoyo dieting.

I'm sorry that happen to you. That's so lame! But just FYI, after you burn off fat, you should actually try and gain weight by building muscle. Muscle weighs more that fat. So instead of marking how great you're doing by a scale, it's better to go by measurements and clothes sizes. I hope this helps, and just ignore you're sister. BTW, you're gorgeous just the way you are. As long as you're gorgeous on the inside! :D

Americans don't half go overboard, don't they! Why the hell would you need an intervention?

She should've just been quiet. If she's jealous she should try to loose weight.
