>Those vegans are the very few you read about in newspapers every 3 years. They became began for health reasons and take it to the extreme, and somehow manage to convince themselves that even breast milk is bad.
I had a friend who went vegan and whose BMI soon became noticeably underweight (6'2"/150#;198cm/68kg); his girlfriend was concerned and started making lots of desserts. Some cajoling from me and others convinced him to give it up. But vegan self-injury is not actually that rare in my experience.
- Johnny_Brahms 9y agoVeganism as a means for eating disorders is pretty well known, but that is 1. A symptom of someone's sickly obsession with food and 2. Not really what I was talking about. Eating disorders by proxy would really be child abuse. I have seen smart people go vegan and only eat salads with some occasional tofu and then conclude it isn't possible to be vegan since that apparently means "live off 500kcal/day".
