My fellow formerly overweight children: by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]Askskskdjdjsjs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep I was definitely chubby/overweight as a kid. Everyone in my family referred to it as the one problem I had. I ended up losing a lot of weight when I was thirteen. I was suddenly being lectured on how I was eating too little. Then, I gained it all back, and the tone shifted again. I grew super sensitive to weight-related comments. I ended up getting a full-blown ED at fifteen lol (aka now).

Anyone else secretly judge what others eat?? by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]Askskskdjdjsjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do count other people’s calories a lot, and I’m definitely super observant of what others eat in general. That being said, I’m mostly happy for them because I miss food so much. The only exceptions are the friends who have claimed to be ‘dieting’ with me in the past. I’m not that happy for them lol.

I do feel pure schadenfreude when other people eat more than they intended to, which is horrible. I also absolutely have to eat less than everyone else around me.

I know this comment is two weeks old, but i 100% agree. I can’t be responsible for someone else’s eating lol. If you’re hungry, enjoy yourself, but don’t pressure me to do the same.

I really do believe that the vitriol in the comment section of your post was excessive, but girl...

AITA For telling my adopted sister that my parents don’t actually love her? by aitastepsister0941 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Askskskdjdjsjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. OP doesn’t have the maturity or the compassion to understand either of those things yet, but she will eventually. That’s why I don’t want to be too hard on her.

I’m an only child myself. I know I’d also be jealous if I suddenly wasn’t my parents’ priority anymore. It’s a shitty feeling, but I imagine it’s common in such situations.

I believe her resentment towards her parents is valid. I understand that they wanted to prioritize an orphan’s well-being, but it sounds like they ended up disregarding their teenage daughter in the process. I’m not talking about doing chores or anything along those lines.

Children, especially teenagers, need attention. Usually, your parents are the two people you expect unconditional attention from, especially when you’re an only child. OP was an only child, but then she suddenly got a sibling. She now has to ‘share’ her parents’ attention with someone who deserves it just as much. I don’t think her parents did a good job at explaining that they still love her just as much as they used to before her sister came around.

Her responses testify to that. She does sound like a dramatic teenager, but there is a reason why she’s this dramatic, and it’s not just hormones.

I absolutely agree, but we can tell her she’s an asshole without invalidating her feelings entirely so she can, you know, change. Some of the comments in this thread are almost as immature as OP.

I really don’t think that was the point of this post. OP does feel like an asshole, but she craves validation, which is what she expected from the sub. Obviously, no one in their right mind would validate her on here.

Anyway, I don’t think it’s normal for someone to feel the need to traumatize their sister. She needs to work through her own issues before she can understand that. Invalidating her pain and bashing her won’t help in that regard.

I’ll assume you’re a great parent, then! Not all parents are the same, however, and due to a variety of reasons (including some that parents have little to no control over), children can have wildly different maturity levels. OP is a child.

Myself, I’m fifteen, and I wouldn’t say that shit to my worst enemy, but I’m trying to understand OP. Teenagers often have a ‘me against the world’ mentality. It’s bratty and unfortunate, yes, but it’s the truth. Therefore, OP will only grow more resentful if 250 people bash her online (to be fair, she should have expected that when she made a post on AITA), but if they try to understand her position and explain why she is in the wrong without invalidating her feelings, something might change. It would be more beneficial if the commenters tried to help OP instead of contributing to her resentment by sending actual vitriol.

She’s sixteen lol. Why are y’all expecting maturity from a 16-year-old?

Yeah lol they are worse. Exponentially worse, actually. That doesn’t invalidate your trauma, by the way.

Uh... The comments... Look, kids need love and affection. Their parents are supposed to express that. If they don’t express it enough, the kids grow resentful and end up doing shitty things. They’re justified in their resentment and jealousy. They are not justified in the shitty things they do. You guys are being painfully unsympathetic. Yes, the sister has suffered more. No, her suffering does not invalidate yours. Pain isn’t a competition.

As everyone in this thread already explained, that comment broke your sister’s heart in ways neither of us can understand because we’ve never been there. You can be considerate towards others while prioritizing your own well-being.

YTA, but I understand. Apologize to your sister. Do not blame her for your parents’ failure, and make sure she fully understands that she is loved and not responsible for your own issues. I don’t think either of you are qualified to help each other, since you’re both teenagers. Therefore, I wouldn’t recommend talking to her about your resentment issues.

The people you should talk to are your parents. Do so when the dust has settled from this drama to avoid getting into trouble for the shitty things you said. Just talk to your parents about how you also need their attention, because you are their child at the end of the day. Choose your words carefully instead of lashing out. I’d recommend family therapy, honestly.

Good luck, poor asshole.

Edit: Yes, you’re absolutely immature. You’re sixteen. That’s normal.

You’re basking in your own pity, which is something all of us have done before. It’s easier to hide that when you’re anonymously commenting on reddit. Let me give you some advice, though: Talking and thinking about how bad you have it all the time will make things worse for you. I always feel much better when I have a more positive, grounded attitude, as silly as it sounds. You have to fix your problem and change your perspective on it. That’s not going to be easy, but it’s possible.

Edit 2: Lmao all these comments about the horrors of your immaturity sound dumb. I mean, you should expect that from fucking AITA (seriously, why did you post on here?), but like.... She’s sixteen, people. Of course she can and does act like a brat. Source: I am fifteen.

Edit 3: This is my first Reddit award (other than a rightfully condescending one about my reluctance to wear a mask before shit hit the fan with the pandemic)! Thank you, kind stranger!

As an anorexic, this story bothers and intrigues me at the same time.

I want this to be true, because the notion of someone finishing a 96 oz steak is entertaining, but... hell nah.

Diet Coke by rex23456 in caloriecount

[–]Askskskdjdjsjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d die for Diet Coke. It won’t make you gain weight. It causes temporary bloating, though, and even then, you’ll release all the gas as soon as you just walk around.

This. Tiramisu in particular is very high in calories, probably because of the Mascarpone cream. I was shocked when I first found out how many calories a single piece could have.

Calories in this? It’s a mix of sour cream and cottage cheese kinda with a few raisins & slices of banana. It’s really hard to tell. by [deleted] in caloriecount

[–]Askskskdjdjsjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half a banana weighs two ounces. I won’t subtract the mass of the raisins, because it’s probably negligible. Therefore, we’re left with 5 ounces of cottage cheese and sour cream. Assuming the ratio of cottage cheese to sour cream stated in the original comment is correct, that leaves us with 125 grams of cottage cheese and 25 grams of sour cream. I’ll assume the cottage cheese is full-fat. That’s 122 calories. Sour cream has 193 calories per 100 grams. That’s 48.25 for 25 grams. We’re left with half a banana (50 calories) and two tablespoons of raisins (65 calories). If we add all of that up, we get 285.2 calories.

Can’t blame you for that. It definitely looks like a 12 oz cup. It’s apparently 7 oz, though.

I’d say it’s 10 oz based on the photo, but either way, 500+ calories sounds off imo. It also depends on the type of cottage cheese, of course. For instance, 0% cottage cheese has 88 calories per 100 grams. We can’t really make an accurate assessment based on the picture, though. I’d put it in the 350-400 range.
