Well, lot's of things happen when you don't eat. Your body cannot function properly. Your body requires energy to do simple things like... breathe... move....smile. To get the energy, it burns fat. If you aren't taking anything in, the body tells itself.."I'm in trouble! I"m starving". So, it begins to store the fat away and begins to burn up muscle tissue instead. So, you end up keeping your fat, and losing your muscle. You become weaker and weaker. Your brain begins to not function properly, you become very weak, and finally, you just slip away. And, if you want to scare your friend, have her look at those kids from Africa and India that are starving. They have huge rounded bellies... not skinny at all. Some of the other things that happen when you starve yourself: Your hair falls out. Your teeth fall out. You bones become brittle and break. Tell your friend to see her doctor. He can recommend a dietician that will help her lose the weight she wants but still be healthy. Believe me. I tried it your friends way. I ended up looking like I had been on crack all my life. After seeing the dietician, I lost 100 pounds, and I had to eat 6 times a day!!!!! 6 months isn't really that long of a time to lose weight, and believe me, it's worth it to stay healthy. Good luck to you

when you dont eat, your body goes into starvation mode and hangs onto every calorie it gets. If your friend is not eating to lose weight, its not gonna happen, they will end up bingeing (body's reflex to survive) and keeping all that new weight. It also robs the body's bones of nutrients and makes the mind weaker. Think of a car with no gas or oil, transmission fluid, steering fluid.....

Tell her that when you don't eat, your body responds by slowing your metabolism as a form of a safety tactic. You can speed up your metabolism by eating more, just more of the RIGHT foods. But slowing down your metabolism actually makes losing weight harder than eating a normal diet and eating the RIGHT foods to lose weight.

you don't have to say , just showing her pixs of starved ppl. and im sure at the end, when she feel hungry she will eat automatically. Otherwise, you only need to take her to hospital.

Not eating will kill her. You should probably have your parents talk to her parents if you're that concerned.

her kidneys will eventually shut down and she will die. her hair will fall out, her skin will get really nasty looking, and her teeth can fall out, her nails will split, starvation isnt pretty.
