it's your LJ... if someone sees something they don't like, they can just scroll past. Screw them if they get upset.

It can be really triggering for those of us with eating disorders, etc. to see food logs - they're so intimately tied with food-obsessive behaviors that it can be dangerous territory.

There aren't many things I cut, for exactly the reason you mention, but as someone who is still working through my food issues, I can understand why a log would be upsetting!

I accept what you say, while not understanding it - in the same way that you can explain "blue" to someone blind for birth without them understanding blue-ness! (he says, mangling things horribly!)

It's okay - when you spend a decade or more of your life obsessing about every bite of food you take (and hating/loving yourself accordingly), it's hard NOT to find it triggering.

I'm glad that you *haven't* had that experience!
