It's partly about weight, too, but you're right...it's more than that; it's also about having a healthy self-image and a realistic goal weight. Being underweight and ultra-thin carries health risks of its own, just as being overweight does.



I'm afraid I'll have to disagree. If someone is already underweight and wanting to lose more and displaying other symptoms of an eating disorder, giving them advice and tips on how to lose still more weight is not helpful.
