That one made me laugh. IRL when people don't get that you are kidding, one can give a simple, withering look that says it all. On the internet, one is forced to come back with posts explaining the joke, thereby killing the joke once and for all.

Somebody has probably created a smiley with that simple, withering look.

Unfortunately, because this is the Internet, that smiley probably has either Klingon-brow or TITS!, either of which would ruin the effect.

Atticus, you crack me up.

You are "cute and casual!"

Of course, if you're a Versace man, you get to wear either a t-shirt with Donatella's big bleached head on it, or a caftan (oops, 'kaftan'). Hooray!

Wow. You actually had an eating disorders team?

Although a laxative team would be more bulimic than anorexic though, right?

WRT fit and healthy and anorexic--it really depends on how you look at it. When I was Danielaesque I considered myself fit and strong and healthy and ran marathons regularly at under 3:30.

Is Daniel healthy? Arguably not. Competitive, fit and strong? Sure.

What do you mean by "Danielaesque"? When you had an eating disorder? If you were running sub-3:30 with an eating disorder, then you've proven me very wrong...

By the way, the talk about heights recently made me start wondering how tall y'all be being. I picture Sebby and Burger as kinda medium height (5'10") and wiry, taxwonk and bilmore as on the shorter side, Slave and Jack Manfred at an even 6'0. Thurgreed at 6'1 or 6'2? Just wild guesses.

str8.

You're close. I'm 6'1. Not wiry, but not "filled out" either. I'd say my weight is normal/sorta thin.

S(they list me as 6'4 in the program)D

Her physique reminds me of an endurance athlete, marathoners, cyclists, etc. They are very fit, not strong and bulked up. She doesn't look unhealthy to me.

That's exactly what I thought. I've seen female marathoners who look like that, and they can out-eat me (insert joke here). Maybe she just changed her training regimen.

She looks like Sean Bradley with a modest rack.

Yes, that it what I mean. My physique was very close to Daniela--did not look good in a swimsuit and had no TITS! I was not "healthy" (did not menstruate for six years, after doing so for two) but had enviable stamina. I ran at least 8 miles every day, plus an hour of stairmaster (this was a "normal day"), and on "training days" (three days per week) would run 15-20 miles. Year round. I do not believe that I was all that unique.

Edited to add that I limited myself to 1,000-1,500 per day.
