Okay, I think those who've been following me from long ago will be familiar with my sister like cousin. Vicky has always been very self conscious about her weight... You know, refusing to eat chocolates, avoiding candies, constantly weihging herself, etc. But I never gave it a lot of thought. Its almost common place even with many men. Now, I must say I never found her fat. She's just your average size ten.
Now, she wants to get to 120 pounds (That means going down 20 lbs for her). And she's OBSESSED with it. However, its her actions that are starting to worry me. She's talking to me of it as a normal thing, that in the past few weeks its been commonplace for her to often not eat anything until 3 PM in the afternoon. And almost every single day she induces herself to throw up late at night. (Thats the little part that has me the most worried). And she's considering coupling that with a cabbage soup diet.
I've told her that I am worried about her health with such habits, but she will just answer with "I'm fine. Really. Everythings ok." I don't know, I am worried about her. I don't know. Somehow I just wish she gets to the desired weight, and will just go back to normal habits. But at the same time I look at her height and body form, (This girl is taller than many men her age, and is the voluptuous body shape that was in vogue in the 1960s) and I have my fears that such a weight for her will be too risky with her health.
I really don't know what to do.
