Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion be it right or wrong but I think you should educate yourself a little more or get to know people a little more before you pass a judgment on them.
Myself and many others on here do not have eating disorders. We are trying to do what is best for our own health and to keep ourselves from being in pain. If you call watching what you eat so that you aren't so ill that you can't live your life or leave the house an eating disorder then count me in.
For most people food is easy, for us food is challenge. It doesn't mean I don't eat as much as other people it just means that I eat what my body agrees with.
I'm sorry that you have had experiences in your life that lead you to think anyone who counts calories or wants to lose weight automatically has an eating disorder.
I agree with you that people who have eating disorders should be on here. Why? because this board is filled with caring, loving and great people who accept each other for who they are and don't put each other down. We are just here to support each other no matter what our goals are.
