So Liz Jones is a fashion writer for the Daily Mail who, amongst other things, has campaigned for more diverse sized models on the catwalk. In this most recent article, she writes about being a borderline anorexic for the last 40 years and then having her sister come and feed her for three weeks. Unsurprisingly, it did not go well. Her sister decided to use Granny's weight gaining diet of all creamy gunk and needless to say it made Jones feel fat, lazy and sick. Jones did, however, admit it was nice to not get up from her chair and almost pass out from hunger.
Always a plus!

Here is a selection:

"I certainly don't practise what I preach and am in fact secretly proud that I'm still a size 8 [4 US -ed], a sample size. I love my concave stomach and I can't help, despite my beliefs, but regard women who are fat, who don't exercise, who gorge on things like Galaxy, as somehow lazy. They just don't try hard enough....That's the thing about being a borderline anorexic: it makes you feel superior, clean, morally unimpeachable."

Uhh. OK. So how does this affect your life, Jones?

"Being this way made me not just socially awkward, but unlovable: I've always hated being touched, hugged, naked, half-dressed on holiday, in case I'm found wanting, in case someone felt or saw an extra ounce of flesh. Being this thin meant I never got pregnant; I have menstruated perhaps half-a-dozen times in my life...In fact, I was always fearful of getting pregnant because the thought of my stomach growing fat, of stretch marks and a big bum, was not a price I was willing to pay for a child. The whole process seemed messy, dirty, greedy."

Hmmmm. So how did you feel at the end?

"Once you are conscious of what you eat, you never, ever become careless. When I broke up with my husband - who, to his credit, despite calling me Chubby, tried to make me eat normally - I was relieved to return to my austere life.

When my sister goes back to Australia, I know I will clear out the fridge. It makes no sense, but I'd rather be thin than happy or healthy.

It's too late for me, but if now the sun is shining and you are thinking of all the ways you can 'Get that Bikini Body', entering the endless cycle of guilt and recrimination, then DON'T.

Because you never know if you will be able to stop. "

Anybody who reads this article would realize that Jones is a pretty sick person and but its odd that she tried eating normally almost to torture herself and ultimately reaffirms her starvation lifestyle. Dark.
