| The Ana Way |
| Anorexia is not a fad diet, nor a disease. Some people say it's not a lifestyle either, but I beg to differ. I believe it is a lifestyle. Sometimes it's a chosen, other times, it's not. I believe an Anorexic can "recover" at any time, with the right help. This site is NOT for those in recovery or those thinking about rcovering. This site is for those who choose not to recover but live a HEALTHY Ana lifestyle, instead. |
| What is Anorexia? - Deliberate, purposeful self-starvation - Moderate-Severe restriction of food. - A lifetime commitment, unless you seek help to "recover". Why Anorexia? - For some, Ana is the only thing that makes them feel "in control". - For others, Ana is the only thing that makes them happy with themselves. -And still, for others, Ana is a lifetime "weight loss and maintainance" plan. The "Pros" of Ana: - You feel on top of the world when you slap temptation in the face. You don't need that food to make you happy! - You will be a thin, beautiful, vibrant human being. - You will be successful in the eyes of the world, as well as in the eyes of your heart. The "Cons" of Ana: - Your loved ones may be worried about you and your health. - Feelings of unworthiness and low self-esteem may sneak up on you from time to time. - Even though there are ways to be a healthy Ana, deprivation of food can be unhealthy. - You could slip too deeply into Ana's grasp, which causes constant dispair and lonliness. This could lead to self-injury and even suicide. |
