Eating Disorders Treatment - How Thin
Is Too Thin
America is not the only country with diet issues. This same dilemma is spread
throughout the entire world. And it's not just about obesity. Although being
overweight is definitely a common issue in the states, eating disorders such as
anorexia and bulimia are also quite prevalent. I can't imagine why this is? Can
you? Oh wait, of course I know the problem here. It's the media. Whether it be
television, film, fashion shows, magazines, or music videos, they're all pushing
for the skinny folks. And by skinny, I don't necessarily mean healthy. Because
let's face it; some individuals are totally over-doing it. Apparently what we
need is more eating disorders treatment information in circulation. This way
people can get help.
Check out the cover of the latest tabloid. You are likely to see either Nicole
Richie, Kate Bosworth, or Lindsey Lohan. All three girls have been targeted and
zoomed in on. Why, you may ask? DUH! Clearly they all require eating disorders
treatment. I am going to take a stab in the dark and say that Nicole Richie
suffers from anorexia. I mean come on; the reality star went from chubby to
skeleton. Now days she is so frail and scrawny looking. This is NOT a good look
on her or anyone else. I often wonder if someone told her she was chubby and she
then went overboard with a weight loss strategy. Many girls end up doing this.
Suddenly they're stuck in eating disorders treatment clinics and having trouble
consuming anything. This is basically like a disease. I personally blame the
media because they feed into it so extremely. Shows like "America's Next Top
Model" are always pointing out average to slim girls and calling them fat. They
just did this on the last season with one of the contestants. Even a designer
said she was overweight. This sends a terrible message to women everywhere. The
media, after all, is such a powerful tool. Letting your kids watch it can sadly
damage their confidence; hence the numerous eating disorders treatment clinics.
I hear in Argentina the pandemic is even worse than here in the states. It seems
a bit hard to fathom, but I really don't doubt it. I was told over there you can
find an eating disorders treatment center on every street corner. YIKES! We all
need to be able to recognize how thin is too thin.
