very sad.

Poor woman.

I would characterize anorexia nervosa as more of a mental illness than an disorder.

Reston would have had a body mass index of 13.4 at the time of her death

wow.

Sad, yes and I don't even believe that most men are attracted to skinny women anyway ! Where is this coming from ! A change is needed.

I'm not sure that this condition can be attributed to what attracts men to women, and such thinking is not generally the motivation for these women. It's more around how these women perceive themselves and what their self-image is to them. This, and what they understand is the 'perfect body'.

Ultimately I believe it's the image imposed by the industry that makes women believe that men are attracted to it, otherwise women would refuse to do it and to buy their products. If that's not the case women need to wise up and start taking control.

The fat cow.

Men are attracted to the images, a good portion anyway. The girls rarely have the curves, the curves before buying them or all the curves in the same areas anyway in real life. They pose in contorted stances that only look good on film, in real life hardly maintainable by their own accounts. Thier skin isn't as flawless and perfect, features as vibrant or symetrical. The fashion/beauty/celebrity spotlight BREEDS eating disorders, or disordered self-perception, even by those who simply sit, look at the pictures and want to emulate those people in the spotlight.

Change media to change minds. Sad but true.

I wonder how long it was since her last job. She looks skinny but not particularly unhealthy in the photo. I'm assuming, with a BMI of 13, that she looked much worse at the time of her death.

so whats the skinny on this story i didnt get the memo

This is how weight loss diets and extremely focusing on being slim can end. Learn from the animals, have you ever seen a fat animal in it's natural environment? They don't need diets why do we?
