A few friends and I mean a few use to be friends shamed me saying it was unhealthy to go without eating for long periods and I should diet the old fashion way. Also these same friends also went transphobic on top of it to add fuel to the fire. Well who's laughing now? People need to fuck off and either be supportive or go take a flying fuck off a bridge when it comes to what people do in regardless to weight loss or choices in life.
