it's interesting.......just yesterday I saw the movie "Dying to Be Thin" based on a true story of an Olympic hopeful in gymnastics that nearly killed herself physically trying to rise to the coach's combativeness to lose weight and work harder.....she was literally killing herself in the process and tearing her family apart........I had a niece who went thru the same turmoil.........some times it's due to a very controlling parent usually the mother.... not always of course but I think true in my niece's case.. my sister was always on her case....always..believe me, my sister is very controlling........my niece actually confessed to me herself............I controlled my feelings and asked if she had gotten some counseling which she had.....she thought that she was better but the thoughts of getting fat never go away totally.......I've seen a recent photo of her with her young son and hubby and she looks healthy........so maybe all is okay now........I don't really know for sure..........do I worry? Of course I do..............
