and of course.. throwing up every singel piece of food u even eat.. Yes that is only something STUPID humans do... because they don't really think lol...

and also.. of course it can be done even without throw up a singel time.. just need some common sense and be determinated...

OMG Are you serious??? Do you know the damage throwing up causes the esophagus??? Not only that, but it is a sickness. It is known as bulemia.
What's the use of eating in the first place if you're just going to stick your finger down your throat and puke it up later??? Making yourself throw up is never the right thing to do, and if you're trying to loose weight than go on a damn diet. The diet you said you were doing sounds good. It's much better than puking.

What if your food has been tainted with a deadly poison?

This is kinda off subject and ethnicity [LOL], but a couple months ago, i spent a lot of time with a friend of mine who is vietnamese and keeps a lot of viet food around her house. so for a good month that's pretty much all i ate and drank water, green tea, and maybe a couple cups of bubble tea. i lost a good 5-7 lbs. lol. i joked with her that maybe i should move in. =p

That would be the only exception.
But by the time you figured out that your food was poisoned, you'd be dead. So puking it back up still would not be an option!!

Ipdirufangirl> that happened to my neice too!! She went to Brazil for a little over a month and lost something like 20lbs. She was really big on take out food, and when she went to Brazil all she ate was rice and beans and chicken.

The only exception?

What if your food had maggots in it, or bird shit? Would you keep and down and hope for the best?

mehh im confused now :S

I study both psychology and sociology and done my A level and G.C.S.E Sociology coursework on eating disorders and found the same that Asian woman have less encouragment to be skinny because the media does not focus on having to be skinny but western woman are always being told that skinny is great.

That is because America has been called fat many times so many doctors and such want to encourage Americans to loose weight so we can loose the bad reputation in that field.

I ment more about the fact that we are all supposed to be size 0 because that is sexy and that is the only way to be liked in todays western society
