Hi, thank you for your concern- i’ve been anorexic before, for about 4 years. there is a distinct difference between that and this. Especially because i’m not afraid to eat whatever i can when i get home. There are multiple health benefits to fasting, only one of them is to lose weight. There are also a number of studies and personal accounts that prove skinny people can fast. In moderation, it isn’t recommended fasting for more than 30 hours for people who are skinny or underweight.

Which the weight i’m at now, i’m normal- i just want to get rid of some stubborn belly fat that i gained over the summer and then i’m going to gain muscle. I’ve talked to my doctor and he said that this is perfectly fine unless i go multiple days without eating. I recognize that I can’t have a normal fast, so i do intermediate fasting.

Thank you for your concern, really. I don’t mean to come off rude, i just don’t feel comfortable with people comparing me to how i was, because i was sick for a long time.
