I think there a few different reasons why someone might starve themselves. It is a way to have rapid weight loss (though an unhealthy way) and it is a way to have control for someone who may not even be over weight but it's a way to feel like they have power over something in their life. Most people will hide it, by all means necessary.

One explanation is if they have very controling people in their lives and they feel they have no controll over their lives, eating is the one control they do have over their life. That is thought to be one of the reasons. Actresses' on TV don't help when young girls see them starving themselves into sticks.
