Because of my syndrome.

The original thread.

Because of my syndrome (or BOMS) is a phrase used to refer to a special lightweight female. Because of her syndrome, Lizzie Velasquez is not able to gain weight store fat. She is 21 years old right now and only weighs about 60 lbs. She has ~0 percent body fat as well. Obviously she could put on some muss and is just too lazy to lift dem weights.

In addition to having a face that makes you want to gouge your own eyes out with a spork, she is also blind in one eye and has limited vision in the other. It is so rare that it is -to this day- undiagnosed. There are only 3 people in the world including Lizzie who have it.. Some researchers believe that there may be a link between Lizzie's syndrome and Amy Winehouse Disease but so far this work remains speculative.

She cannot do many things regular humans can; because of her syndrome. One thing she can do, unlike most regular humans, is post on /b/. And so, on December 26th, 2008, Lizzie came out of the closet and spoke to the masses on /b/.

She attends Texas State University, so if any of you failures reading this see her on campus, be sure to yell "EAT A BURGER"

The Maury Show

Lizzie appeared on The Maury Show in season three in the year 2000 in a November 8 (or possibly January 1) episode titled "I'm Only A Kid...Please Don't Stare." At the time, she was 11 years old and 50 pounds.

Liguori

First book

Second book

Lizzie co-wrote her first novel with her mother Rita, called "Lizzie Beautiful". She wrote her second novel by herself, and chose an interesting group to publish it. It was set for release September 1, 2012, by Liguori Publications. Their summary is elucidating:

	“	Liguori Publications is a collaborative ministry of Redemptorist priests and brothers and lay staff whose mission is to spread the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world through its publications. Liguorian magazine is one of the nation’s leading Catholic periodicals. Liguori also produces trade books, youth and catechetical materials for parishes and religious education programs, parish bulletins, and devotional and educational pamphlets	„
	—For more information, call 1-800-325-9521 or visit Liguori.org.

Clearly this means that Lizzie is now using her disease to promote her Catholic extremist views.
