@marjan12342 - Then you shouldn't talk about how "dramatic" or "over the top" they filmed the eating disorder scenes if YOU don't have an eating disorder yourself.

@HunterJumperGal91 When I was younger my grandmother, dad's side, told me I would end up fat and ugly just like my mom. I am 105 lb and 4'11" obviously I am neither but it still hurts.

@youngatheart212 Oh yes, that I absolutely agree with. With all those other things already in play, a little comment can definitely be what pushes someone already struggling over the edge.

@HunterJumperGal91 I meant a smal comment can be the straw that broke the camels back...

@youngatheart212 I can see how one would get that impression but it was more than that, even if it doesn't appear that way. Tracey Gold explains it well in her memoir. She says that for a person with a different personality and background that didn't make them prone to eating disorders could lose the weight and be done with it but with those other things at play in combination, that's what does it. It's a whole lot of things on top of each other.

@mama3183 Actually, compulsively cutting food into small pieces and taking lots of little bites that are chewed for an extended amound of time is a good indicator of a eating disorder, or at the very least and unhealthy relationship with food. This technique is particularly common in anorexics because it helps them eat less by giving their body more time to feel full on less and allows them to eat less while still appearing to be eating, even eating more than they are when out with other people.

@quelita28 there is no standard weight for elite gymnasts.How much a gymnasts weighs depends greatly on his/her body type. Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson don't weight the same because they have very different bodies. Obviously gymnasts aren't going to be over weight but that's not because its a standard

[youngatheart212]

Correcy me if I am wrong but doesn't this show how one little comment can change a belief and can be cataclysmic psychologically?
