A lot of models don't starve themselves. A lot of models you see on television are not much older than 15 or 16 years old and haven't finished puberty yet. Of course they are very thin! I was very thin at that age too and I ate all the time. I still eat all the time and many people in western countries would think that I was starving myself, but that's simply untrue. Blame it on good (or bad?) genes, but not all models or thin women have eating disorders. I do wonder why there are so many fat women and teenage girls out there though.

Some models do, some don't. I think the reason why models starve themselves is because they are in front of the camera and/or on a runway a lot of the time and they feel they have to look perfect. Modeling companies probably also have weight requirements. Also I hear that some models have low self-esteem because they worry about the next model being prettier than them, skinnier than them, etc.

To be a model... That's the only reason. Alot of modeling companies will not accept over weight people so therefor the starve themselves to be that perfect size 1 or 2. It's very sad.

Some people believe that they have to live up to certain standards, I don't think that most people realize that there are different types of models for different types of modeling they don't always have to be a size 1 or 2. Personally, if I am going to lose weight it's going to be for myself and because I want to, not just because the agency told me to.

because they get it in their head that being a model is more important than their health. Its very stupid if you ask me.

Not all of them do. Some eat a lot and are naturally thin.
