They start to think of eating disorders possibly when they are about nine and up. Some possibility of this illness is things such as,thinking the will be prettier. Or, another possible thing is that they don't want to be stared at when they are in public or possibly even at school. Also they look at models in magazines and they strive to be them.

I think that the most important thing is that might trigger that is when they look in magazines is that they see the models with the so called "perfect" body. They look at the other people that surround them and say how pretty they are and about how skinny they are.

Most girls think that guys will like them better if they are "perfect" When really that is so not true. Guys could care a less about your weight. Some women think that if they are the weight that they are supposed to be for there height that they will gain weight and that will make them loose more weight so they don't think they are over weight or fat.

There are many reasons that girls have eating disorders but one of the most important one is maybe that they think that it is a healthier lifestyle than being heavyset. They see all these heavy set people around them that might have health issues. They think hey maybe that they are better off being skinny so they are healthy and they don't take the risk of having to go to the hospital and taking the risk that they have some sort of illness. We all have heard in many sorts of places that if you are more heavyset that they are most likely to die at more of a earlier age then they are planned to. They think that the less weight that they are they are more healthy and that not eating is okay.When your body does not get any intake on food it starts to eat away inside of you. It will feed itself by eating everything it can find and sometimes that does mean that it will eat the organs in your body so yes you might have some kind of illness. Well is more of a chance that you will die sooner if you have a eating disorder cause you organs will not have any energy to run on so they will stop and your body ill eventually just like give up.
