anyway I guess I would like to trust this girl to KNOW if she is getting sick from not eating...chances are if it IS an ED then she'll be hospitalized soon, right? I dont know!

Sadly, most people with eating disorders deny the fact to everyone, often including themselves.

So many people die or have serious, long term consequences to their health from eating disorders that I am not about to stop trying to help if I see ED type behaviour. And I also worry when I see people reassuring these folk that all is well. All is not well when a seriously underweight person continues to try to lose weight.
