I'm anorexic anyway... Better thin than flabby.
iluvkfc
fuck off you die in a few weeks/months/years
iluvkfc
Does 14 mean you are 14 yr old cuz you have the same maturity.
Jet
get help
squishyrobot
sorry to hear :(
MrCheyl
Poor thing
G-ette
Me too!!!! Well I'm like half anorexic but still I 100% agree with you!
Laura
@G-ette ... I am pretty sure there's no such thing as being "like half anorexic". Where on earth did you hear that?
mark
fat people are disgusting, bones are sexy.
ultranewt
yo dog get yourself a chocolate shake

Same
Silver14
Umm obvoiusly if I have anorexia, I'd rather be thin. That's what this mental illness is.
NikWillOrStuff
um, not really. Well, being thin is better yes, being full on anorexic is terrible for your health.
Mira
I hope none of you meet an anorexic because telling them to eat or to go kill themselves is not the right way to go. It's pretty detrimental, really.
Andrew
Sorry to hear that; I hope you get better. But i completely disagree. better to have more than enough food than too little.
Lindsay
you obviously have no idea how it is to be anorexic. you're cold all the time, sometimes you can no longer have children afterwards, it kills your family members, look i'll be fat if i dont have to force my family members to watch me die
Jared
Would be easier to recover from, just eat.
Marcus Panico
To all the fat fucks that are saying being anorexic is bad for your health, being fat as shit is no better. Being at high risk for gallstones, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and triglycerides, coronary artery disease (CAD), a stroke, and sleep apnea isn't too fucking great. It's basically just asking would you like to look attractive, or disgusting?
Anastasia
Silver, are you proud of being anorexic? If so, that's just sick!
TheFarmer
@Morgan obesity is not genetic! its a simple science if you eat more than you need you get fat, you cant get fat by not eating more than you need. If being fat was genetics then why are there no fat people in starving countries? Why is it that only in America where people eat a LOT of food the "fat gene" is found?
Mario Zul
@Farmer While it may not be genetic, if a child is raised by 2 fatties then the child would get the idea that being fat is perfectly fine, and that they should do it.
Bear Grylls
@TheFarmer, You could have Thyroid problems that lead to obesity. Thyroid problems can be genetic.
Silver14
No way. But there's not point sugar coating it and saying I'd rather be obese. Name one person with an eating disorder who wants to be fat.
auburnstar
While being obese might not be genetic, how quickly your metabolism processes stuff is.
tony
You can lose weight easily. Anorexia is a psychological problem
Matt
not if you are a compulsive eater... why are people obese in the first place... its over eating because of stress or sorrow. so no... they are both psychological problems
iluvkfc
@Matt that's not why people are obese in the first place clearly you are 13 yr old and dont know anything. people are obese because they are lazy and cba eating healthy shit, or just poor (low income).
Mario Zul
@iluvkfc Different people are obese for different reasons. Learn it before you argue about it.
Michelle
If losing weight is so easy, why do so many people struggle with it? Obesity is one of the leading causes of preventable death in the US.
SunnyCrapCake
It would be easy if you didn't want to be fat.
chloe24
this is a disgusting question. anorexia isn't just being skinny and being obese isn't just being fat. the anger boiling in my blood right now is insane. low lives.
SunnyCrapCake
I know it isn't, but why be angry? Some people take the phycological and health problems in as well you know.
Dan
My teeth would rot
SAUCY SCOTSMAN
Why is this?
Luke Kushner
Thats Bulimia, the stomach acid kills your teeth
Lord English
Obese you could fast/diet. I'm naturally thin, so it'd be easy.
Alvo Razzi
I believe it's easier to eat than lose weight.
luke
Either way your teeth would rot because of all the food and drinks you consume.
luke
Either way your teeth would rot because of all the food and drinks you consume.
killjoy54632
That's bulimic u bozo
Silver14
Actually your teeth can rot from malnourishment from anorexia, not just from purging.
Trace Hilbun
At least I would look better than a skeleton.
SunnyCrapCake
Alvo, it is easy to eat, but anorexia is not just being really skinny. You have phycological need to be skinny, because you're afraid of what other people will think of you.
halo66333
Anorexic is when u wont eat @ all
MyNameIsKali
It's easier to die if you're anorexic because your body isn't getting the nutrients it needs to survive.
Dopaminecloud
anorexic is not JUST a physical condition, but obesety is, just live healthier
spudcannon
at least im happy if not attractive
Santos Melendez
Are 62% of people so insecure they'd rather be anorexic?
pnuteatr
you can still be under weight and not have insane health problems. I'm not talking about bein skin and bones, but thin.
Dudugs
Anorexic! You have mental problems! It's jusnt not benigno thin
commiegirl420
I've had severe anorexia (and bulimia) for 12 and a half years now and unless the obesity was due to binge eating disorder, I'd sure as heck rather be obese than be mentally ill. Losing weight is easier than overcoming a psychological illness.
UseThisToAddressMe
I'm skinny as hell so this turns me obese instantly and I just proceed with my lifestyle of complete lack of physical activity, food and sleep until I starve away enough fat to have a "normal" body type. Then I try living healthier.
Just the Tip
Eat the Anorexics
Silver14
If it were just that easy there wouldn't be eating disorders.
Max
considering that George clooney is considered medically obese, i'll take my chances. Obesity is characterized currently through BMI, so i could have a badass body and still be "obese". run circles around your logic
Kyle Chainey
I would like to be fat and happy than skinny and depressed.
Edwin Pacheco
Rather be fat and happy
DevTook
I think being fat is healthier than being anorexic
jj
Fat people rock!!!! At least I think so ^_^ but then again I'm a chubby chaser *_*
slendergirl
I'm already anorexic
elijah
obese people live longer
Clayton Rickey
already obese, so who gives a shit.
Seth T
EAT ALOT
Dudugs
YOU CANT! YOU ARE ANOREXIC! YOU DONT WANNA EAT!
Neal McCarthy
Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels.
Dudugs
And having mental problmess
jazzychick2015
At least I'm eating well
Isaiah VanderPas
Either way you would feel fat
Azeterix
I'd rather be anorexic so that I can eat more, instead of watch how much I eat being obese. It's all for the food.
Agostinho Antonio Montemor
if your obese you just need to work out, but if your anorxic thats a long hard struggle.
Evan Schooling
This is the second skinny vs fat I've run into, and both times people chose the skinny one. (in the other one it was malnourished.) Either way..I just don't see how people would rather give up eating. EATING!
Areuto
2 words "Biggest Loser"
MyStupidUserNameHere
I am anorexic... So ._. Yeah.
kiwifingers
In other words, a 20% or a 0.01% chance of death (25, female, statistically speaking)? Obviously the lower cha- Whats that? Most people chose the 1 in 5 death? Oh...
Luke Procunier
What the hell is wrong with people?! If you would honestly rather starve yourself than be a tiny bit overweight then you got a serious problem. I would rather be fat and love life then skinny and miserable cause of fear for people not liking my damn apperance. Who gives a fuck what people think?! As long as your happy that should be all that matters. I myself am going to lunch and will enjoy my double bacon cheese burger and fries! PEACE!
Ryan
Better to be well fed than dying of hunger.
toolzsnipe
Id rather die than be either.
Suzyq22
This is a really fucked up question and even more so that more people would rather not eat then be fat. And I'm saying this as someone who is extremely skinny but has never ever been anorexic/bulimic!
malacia
what can i say, I'll admit I'm shallow, neither is appealing though...
risg19
I'd rather be obeast!
DudeGuy
I doesn't say how obese. And better to have a gut than be a skeleton
smrzan
Being fat blows. Workout all you want and nothing shows. I'd rather be real skinny and be ripped.
iluvkfc
...and be ripped. YOU REALIZE THIS ISNT ANOREXIA? imbecile.
Timbo Slice
anorexic, you're unhealthy and stupid. Technically bodybuilders are obese by definition. I know, I bodybuild. So of course I'd rather be a bodybuilder than a dumb 90 pound fuck.
Ariel T.
Anorexia doesn't necessarily mean you'll be skinny.
SunnyCrapCake
At least I can tell people the reason I'm obese is because I chose it over anorexia on an Internet game. And it's easier to get rid of obesity than anorexia.
Mimi
I'm kinda chubby...
Timbo Slice
More cushion for the pushin'
DarkKnight64
Being anoreic is way more unhealthy then being obese!.
Jessie Reyna
Yet most of you are obese
Velvet Diamond
I don't know. I try not to think about my weight. If I think about it longer than like two minutes I get a bee up my bottom about it....ugh...I've worked long and hard to love my body, and yet I would still prefer to be anorexic than obese? Honestly here is my opinion: whoever put this "would you rather..." up here is SICK. This is TRIGGERING, disturbing, and horrible.
Усамљени Вук
obese? OH, you mean "FAT!" ?
Ryan Tran
Easy. Be obese, Work it all off, achieve self-confidence.
Andrew
Screw starving to death, I'd rather be fat than a skeleton
mvkyle
Already am, so that's an easy choice.
m.c.popcorn101
You can. Overcome obesity its harder to get rid of anorexia
Brian
im already
