Many teens and tweens don't feel good about their body so they turn to EATING DISORDERS. They want to look more like super models and celebrities they see on TV. They don't relize what could happen to them if they don't have proper nutrition  their matablism gets worse, hair falls out, nails turn yellow, skin gets pail, you can even DIE! One girl didn't drink anything so her eyes got so dry that she can barley see anything and has to use glasses.

HERE ARE TWO OF THE MOST COMMEN

BULIMIA- This is very common in teens. People who purge (through up on purpouse) have it. If you purge a few times a day it can damage your body. In many cases a bulimic person might not be able to digest food any more. When this happens you must go to a docter! After you purge try drinking water you need the fluids.

Anorexia- An anorexic person is someone that eats very little calories or none at all. These people can't see themselves as skinny only big and want to always weight less. Some must have eating tubes in order to get them to eat. Like Bulimia this is also life threatning.

Extream Dieting- This is not a type of Eating Disorder but may start one. Here are exampals  of these diets.  These are very bad for you! Your body needs more food then that.            

The multiplyer. Day one 200 cal, Day 2 400 cal day 3 600 cal, day 4 800 cal. Then for day 5 start over again at 200 cal

Planer Breakfast half an apple , lunch a cewcumber and half an apple, dinner nothing.

Always remember that your beautiful the way you are. Doing this to yourself is not worth it. If you are having problems call kids help phone or contact us.
