just as a general comment, I don't know of how much use it is to post exact weights and heights on an ed board. I mean, I understand the relevance of this information for a diagnosis or even to make others understand how "bad" or how "normal" things are, but you also have to keep in mind that people get triggered by this. That it can lead people to want to compete with these numbers and that they will inadvertantly compare themselves to those numbers, whether that was the person's orginal intention or not. I know that noone means harm by this and I know that maybe I am the only person who sees it like this, but from having been on different boards it at least calls for a notice of "triggering" or something. I don't know where the line is, and by entering these boards people should expect to find this kind of information, but I personally think you can bring a point across without specifically posting this kind of information. I mean, I would never even think of going to the si board and listing all the ways you can si and which ones are "better" or ie. how someone can kill him/herself. neither would someone post how to best lose "x" amount of weight in support of an ed. so, why should you post information that triggers people to compete for a new goal???

doesn't this fall under the above as well?
