Supersize VS Superskinny S2E2 P1

Checking into the feeding clinic is marathon-running, superskinny Kim Fawke. Following a stressful divorce, her weight has plummeted to just over six stone.

In her race to get her relationship with food back on track, she's joined by supersized scoffer and takeaway queen, 23 1/2 stone Trudy Alexander.

Meanwhile, Anna and her Flab Fighters club swap gorging on cheddar for a hike in the Cheddar Gorge.

And four young women in the grip of the eating disorder anorexia nervosa reveal their extreme eating habits, and are forced to discuss the causes, symptoms and anxieties around their distorted relationship with food.

I dont understand how kim can just not think about what she's eating. I thought that eating was one of the most imporatant things for sporters?

I only jog a little bit (compared to Kim) and the idea of trying to run on what little she eats makes me feet sort of faint. I can see how athletes might eat junk or not totally understand balanced diets but I can't imagine how they wouldn't eat enough to fuel themselves. It's almost literally basic math. There is such a huge gap between "I want to get my diet spot-on" and just utterly and totally not eating enough, it's hard to see how she wouldn't understand what she's doing to herself.

@chocolatefan1711 hahaha, its cool :P

[chocolatefan1711]

@Zharpenx Aaaah yes of course, you're right!! So embarrassing that I'm apparently not able to do the simplest calculations...I'm desperately searching for an excuse right now^^ :D

[Leithy1989]

This superskinny is one of the most ill I've seen in all the episodes...

[earthypig]

wow first time i'm seeing a superskinny finish off the first swap-meal with a supersize !

[Zharpenx]

@chocolatefan1711 All the food in the tube are all the stuff she days for the whole week. And it said that she's consuming 3000 cals per day. So u basically multiply 3000 to 7. And that's how much cals in the tube

[zdtzgsdkzmthdcmhg]

you don't need meat fo getting all essential amino acids!

[chocolatefan1711]

Only 3000 cals in that tube??

In my opinion it looks far more...

[missphy]

@astaliini oh yes, it does. for a woman who is sedentary or mildly active, 3000 cals is way over the roof. also, calorie requirements for a woman depends also on her weight and height. personally my maintainence calories is only at 1400. (i'm 5"1)

@astaliini quickly - no, but in a year you can turn out very big
