Same thing is happening to my friend, but I don't think shes taking it to size 6 levels. Went to Greggs the other day and she bought a BLT... Next thing you know shes throwing it all up. Tbh, I think 4 of my friends have been at this stage... Only 1 being seriously anorexic. I can understand them doing diets and all sorts... But it just takes control of them to the point where they're scared of food. Everyone has their reasons though...

[Kurtis]

ill jus do like everyone else n blame the media.but nah, its down to their distoreted perception of beautyonce they get to the super skinny levels theirs minds are so gone anyways they still see themselves as fat

stupidity

[LuLu]

hmmm i wouldnt call it stupid as such because like Danielle said , everyone has their reasons.its hard for people with eating disorders to escape the viscous circle that they are in. It becomes an obsession for them.

Obese people are costing the taxpayer £4.4 million a year in incapacity benefits.The payments are picked up by almost 2,000 people classed too fat to work, the Department of Work and Pensions has disclosed.Peter Hain, the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, said it was "nonsense" to suggest that someone would be able to claim incapacity benefit simply because they were overweight.The figures were released in response to a Freedom of Information request for a breakdown of the conditions cited by the 2.7 million people claiming £7.4 billion in incapacity benefits.They also show that £2 billion was claimed for mental health complaints, including £518 million for people whose ailments are "unknown and unspecified", in 2006/7.Some 250,000 people claim £600 million for stress-related illnesses and 50,000 alcoholics claim £85 million. It adds £100,000 went to those with acne and a similar amount to 60 people with a "nail disorder".Former welfare reform minister Frank Field told The Times there had been a large increase in the number of people claiming benefit for conditions which were unspecific, claiming the system was a "racket".He said: "The big change over the last decade has been into illnesses which largely defy a clear medical classification: depression, dizziness and such. It is a move from the tangible illness to the tangible."It is reported that Mr Hain will announce new moves to get 20,000 people off incapacity benefit.The Sun newspaper said that the Personal Capability Assessment is to be scrapped in favour of a new system which encourages people to show that they can work.

if your friend's flatmate doesn't get help sooner or later , she is just going to be trapped in the cycle of bulima. the other flatmates are too quick to judge before they know the facts , the girl could be going through some f*cked up sh*t and her way of dealing with it , is believe it or not, making herself vomit. i think maybe your friend needs to have a one to one conversation with her alone and try discover whats going on with her flatmate and If confronted by your friend about it ,she may say nothing is wrong with her , for after all its a control thing and the person with the disorder thinks they are doing no harm to themselves.

[LuLu]

^ she looks ill in the bottom pictureits amazing how many people you know that have these disorders in secret.

[LuLu]

that chantelle girl been spendin to much time with that anerexic nikki and probably felt fat stood next to her.some make themseleves sick as they see it as a quicker way to loose weight and throw up every single thing they eat , some binge eat and then vomit , for the food they are consuming tastes good for 5 minutes or so and makes themselves feel better inside but then they feel guilty and sad for eating it and feel they will put on weight and so decide to get rid of it in a vommitting manor.Some even take laxatives and do pure exercise and still take the time to vomit after their meals.

Its true. It can stem from loads of things and its not always about how you look, its about control. Trust me.
