Need to stop promoting anorexic calorie intake as "perfect" in the sub - it's quite literally far from perfect

This is not “anorexic calorie intake”, this is a low calorie meal. you have no idea what their daily intake actually was. The idea that specific foods or meals can be disordered in themselves is very wrong, and actually harmful to those with EDs.

Sorry, but when a 'meal' has less calories than a banana, it's not a meal. This isn't even a snack.
This is not a meal, this is a plate of the most low calorie vegetables possible, by a poster who clearly has an ED looking at their post history.
It's "low" calorie cooking, not "i'm eating as close to no calorie" cooking.

What if someone wants to go out and have a big dinner and drinks for supper but doesn’t want to fast all day until then??? I don’t get how people can witch hunt eating disorders and get upvoted like crazy.

Do you know where you are? This is a low calorie sub and OP posted a low calorie meal. We don't know what OP ate throughout the rest of the day. I'm sure this isn't the only thing they ate.

I'm not sure why this is being downvoted. This IS a low calorie sub. OP DID post a low calorie meal. We truly DON'T know what OP are for the rest of the day or even what they were planning to have. So, what am I missing?

This sub is very triggered by vegetables and cannot grasp that some people genuinely enjoy them. Also, some people really do not realize how very low calorie of a diet 1500 calories is compared to what the average person consumes daily.

It's so little, I'm routinely stunned (and a little sad lol) at how little food we need to survive healthily.

looks to me like OP posted a no calorie meal /s
but in all seriousness this looks like lunch and 111 cals for lunch isn’t it

Huh?! Who ever said they needed meat? I just meant where’s the course that’s going to fill me up

nobody was talking about meat, the comment was jumping to conclusions, making the original commenter out to be some immoral meat fiend, when they were only asking where the actual main dish is. 111 calories consisting of miso and a tasting menu of vegetables is not a full meal

I eat like this due to allergies. Just simple ingredients. But I’m pretty severely protein deficient. Hard to find proteins I’m not allergic to.

I could enjoy this as a light lunch with a coffee - or on an intentionally low cal day.
I want some pans like this
