She hardly eats, and when she does eat she will have very little. I know for a fact that she always skips breakfast, and she is exercising a lot, and she is becoming obssesed with her weight, even though she's not even fat!
Does she have an eating disorder?

I think maybe talking to her mom and making her aware of your concerns about her daughter is a good idea. Tell her how little she has been eating and how she seems to be obsessed with her weight. That way her mom can keep a closer eye on the situation, and if things don't seem right, she can take her to a doctor or counselor. Sometimes parents are very unaware of how their children behave when they are not around, and it's being a good friend to open her eyes, in case she really is developing an eating disorder.

Sounds to me like this could become a problem. More and more people are developing eating disorders lately. The problem is she will deny it if you ask her. Your best bet is to talk to her parents and make them aware of the situation. From there they can decide what to do. They should know her best. There are so many treatment centers for anorexia now.

There is no sure way to tell. One of the sure signs if if she talks about eating as if it is an evil. I highly recommend talking to your friend about it in a calm manner. Don't play the offensive because that may push her away but getting her to see a therapist just for the sake of a diagnosis could ease your mind or set her on the right path.

I'm afraid your friend may be in danger of having a disorder. Try talking to your school nurse - she can direct you to local support & give you advice.
