Great post, Dinah.

Deliberate well, Deneb.

> Deneb, don't you see that that's the real problem? And while you gave up on the weight loss competition, the fact is that you chose to restrict calories to an unhealthy degree in order to win a weight loss competition. People who are in good mental health and who make healthy choices don't make decisions like that. The weight loss competition and fasting itself is nowhere near as important as the fact that you made a very self destructive choice. And likely will again unless you recognize this as a problem and work to solve it. This is where therapy and some very honest self appraisal can be useful.

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
