It’s possible to be naturally thin from an all-fat family. My brother eats more than the rest of us and is thin as a rail. But she definitely sounds anorexic, not like him.

Huh. Well, Oreos are the tastiest trauma-inducing violation I’ve ever had, then.

Mmm, victimhood. Tastes even better with milk!

THANKS Sweet Machine for this fabulous post that I finally had time to read in the wee hours last night.

I am the “Queen-of-the-Skinny-Sphere” so to speak, and here to say MeMe is whacked (and the thought that she is a mother kills me).

Quite interesting that she touts “Integrative Nutrition”, yet their web site does not feature her as a Notable Alumni http://www.integrativenutrition.com/Alumni/NotableAlumni.aspx

Hmm…could this be because MeMe is all about MeMe?

The end of the Guardian article says it all “I eat after I exercise” as she sits there during a 3:30pm interview with no food in her stomach.

What a GREAT, BAD example for young women.
Keep it real,

Moderators:

Could you please fix my tag error in my “letter to the editor” comment? I’m sorry, I proofread the damn thing and everything. So frustrating!

Here's a letter (the very top one on the page) in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel by a local man who is telling the fatphobes who walk up to him with their rudeness and unwanted advice without even knowing him at all, to "step off". I'm considering writing a letter to the editor agreeing with him using information I have learned here, in anticipation of all the concern-troll types who will likely respond with the usual high-and-mighty preaching ala "MeMe" Roth.

My bad, Meowser. I could have sworn she had something to do with DLR.

On days when I lift weight, because I am trying to put on muscle, I have to eat about 2500 calories, at least 30% of them from protein. It’s not as easy as it sounds when you don’t eat meat or dairy. The volume alone is a little daunting.

Salk did indeed belong to PA, but he wasn’t the first polio vaccine producer. Poor Dr. Enders is largely forgotten, but he managed it first. In Boston. At least he got his Nobel Prize, if not the historical credit.

This would be where I smack my forehead and go “Jesus tap-dancing Christ.”

And that’s all I have to add.

Sarah B., you’re right. She IS dangerous and not evil. I really hope she gets the help she needs. Before she permanently damages herself and her kids.
