oh my this is so true. but a very touchy topic.

i know this girl whose literally 260 lbs if not more who is bulemic. she throws up all her food, saying her stomach hurts. she admitted to me the reason why she does this: she says she sees all these really thin moldels and she wants to be just like them.

to make matters worse her mother and sisters are so into their weight, with diets, personal trainers you name it they do it. and she is so pressured and so depressed about it!

our world is so revovled around losing weight and being thin that guys and girls are willing to kill themselves to be thin!

now that school and yeshivos are starting every teacher or rebbi should make sure there students are eating! if the parents arent doing anything about it then you should!
