Pro Ana/Pro Ana Coach Discussion

[A Former User]

This is not meant to be anything negative in nature that could turn into heated debates or drama of any sort. This is simply for me to gain knowledge through discussion. I would like to urge all participants of this discussion to please try to remain polite, courteous, and respectful to all views/opinions via positive/constructive/friendly discussion and chatting. Thank you!

I have noticed a very increasingly popular trend of Pro Ana related topics on this site. Most specifically Pro Ana coaching seeking and advertisements as seen below. (User names have been removed)

From what I've seen, most of the users are interested in this as means to lose weight. So far in my lifetime, I've only ever heard of the health risks involved in this particular style of dieting, as listed below.

So seeing these dieting means of pro ana becoming so increasingly popular lately, I'm very curious about this. For those of you who are considering undergoing this style of dieting/being coached, what are the health benefits you see to this?

I'm honestly not up to date with modern styles of dieting, so maybe there have been discoveries or breakthroughs made that I do not yet know about. So for those of you who have done this or are currently undergoing or considering this, can you enlighten me as to what you have discovered about this that has made you seek this form of dieting?

I'm merely just looking for information and for people to enlighten me on this subject, as I know very little about this. All are welcome to participate in this friendly discussion!

Thank you! :)

@Morf The benefit is to be beautiful 🤗

Think it's more of a kink then an actual coping mechanism. The coach will get pictures from the person to see their progress and will feel a false sense of possession and proudness while the person being coached has someone that won't let him/her fail getting his/her objective and once again a false sense of someone caring genuinely for them enough to want to make that for them. At least that's how I grasp it might be off.

Thank you @Lurker. That sounds like a rational explanation for this. I was hoping some of the people who believe in this pro ana stuff would chime in and tell me their side of it. Honestly, this has started to bother me and make me worry about these people. I thought they might have a good answer to try to help me understand why. :(

@Morf I don't get an awful lot of this "trend." Probably have more questions than answers. Unless I'm totally mistaken, there are anorexia sufferers, and they're offering to "coach" others on how to lose weight, or in some ways encourage the same habits of anorexics? I can't imagine this would be any kind of Good, or, more importantly, HEALTHY. Speaks volumes to how much pressure our society places on those concerned over body-image. If a person is THAT worried over their weight, I'd say go see a REAL Doctor, a trained professional

[Quatre]

@TheRisingSun I should do that
