Maybe I should have put it this way: What are the chances of a person who started dieting at age 13 getting an eating disorder? i.e.(this isn't true but just an example of the kind of answer I'm looking for)---20% of people who start dieting at age 13 get an eating disorder...

I can't tell you the likelihood of developing an eating disorder according to age, but here's some information about the age of onset.
•86% report onset of illness by the age of 20
•10% report onset at 10 years or younger
•33% report onset between ages of 11-15
•43% report onset between ages of 16-20
A panel at the 2004 International Conference on Eating Disorders in Orlando, Florida, suggested the following spectrum of risk factors. The more any one person has, the greater the probability of developing an eating disorder.
High weight concerns before age 14
High level of perceived stress
Behavior problems before age 14
History of dieting
Mother diets and is concerned about appearance
Siblings diet and are concerned about appearance
Peers diet and are concerned about appearance
Negative self-evaluation
Perfectionism
No male friends
Parental control
Rivalry with one or more siblings
Competitive with siblings' shape and/or appearance
Shy and/or anxious
Distressed by parental arguments
Distressed by life events occurring in the year before the illness develops
Critical comments from family members about weight, shape and eating
Teasing about weight, shape and appearance

Baggy clothes hide one's body and encourage lounging around. So no matter if you're relaxing at home, wear fitted clothes to keep you on track.
