Answer 1

Starving yourself is NEVER a good way to go about losing weight. At some point, your metabolism will slow way down and go into survival mode and you will not only not lose weight, you can do significant damage to bodily organs, functions, etc. Tell your friend that a much better way to get rid of her tummy is to eat reasonably, lots of fruit and veggies, limit snacks (regular soda, sweets, etc.) and exercise some every day. It will be gone in no time.

Answer 2

I think you don't really need us to tell you that what she is doing is dangerous. You already know that. It's unfortunate that her family is acting this way. She should certainly have her stomach checked out, and a consult with a nutritionist would help too!

Answer 3

i think she's turnin anorexic but wat effected her was all those bad commets n critisism it got her down it got her self-esteem since everbody was tellin her she was fat it got into her head n the only she thinks bout now is that she's fat n that she cant get bigger n that evrythin she eats will make her look fatter n she cant eat anythin /c she's fat its actually considered a disease b/c thats everythin se thinks bout n its not healthy the body needs vitamins, water n all those stuff u get from food u actually can get worse in a way when your anorexic
