horray!

Lasagna, potato gratin and potato chips. That’s what Skinny had for lunch today. I suppose I don’t have to worry about her starving then. (I don’t really worry actually, I like to think she’s too smart to actually starve herself for real.) Instead I worry that she, by starving and then binging will go in to another starving period. I guess I have to remind her that starving and then eating a lot of unhealthy stuff she won’t lose an ounce. Balanced eating, girl!

Introducing: Skinny

“I’m not eating this week. I have to get rid of this” she says and grabs the back of her left thigh. I look upon her, a very thin japanese chick with perfect hair. We’ve had this conversation before. Even though she’s one of the skinniest people I know, all she sees is her thighs. 

I laugh and tell her that you actually need to eat to live. Then I take her home and make her a soup that will make her full, but not fat and try to explain what you should think about if you’re trying to lose weight. I’m beyond trying to tell her that she’d look really scary if she lost more weight, instead I just giver her tips about what she can eat. But everytime we’re on this subject I die a little. I know I can never tell her what to do or judge her, so I just laugh and hope I’m not being too much of an enabler.
