I've got a friend from uni who about 2-3 years ago was admitted into a unit for anorexia, she's a normal size now anyway and has a tiny frame but she's greatly improved and you would never have thought she'd had a problem.
I'm currently on weight watchers and going to classes, and lost weight myself ( except I need too!) and she's seen how well Ive done and we were discussing today about whether she wants to come along with me (her idea).
She really has nothing to loose, however as she's been living off pizzas and junk as a student, and she does want to loose a few pounds and tone up a bit for our holiday, I don't see a major issue- she's not very skinny but is actually a perfectly normal weight. However I see her point about wanting to be able to get some support about eating properly etc and maybe loosing some weight.
However she's said she wants to loose 2 stone, so she gets to a BMI of 18.5 (which is the absoloute minimum) tbh I think this is far too much than is healthy and she should at the most aim for a 1/2 stone or 10lbs!!!
I'm just concerned because the nature of WW is, tracking what you eat, weekly weigh ins and you do need to stay in control..and I'm worried this may be a trigger, or actually a bad idea for her. I can see her going really overboard and going into some old anorexic habits.
She's coming along to my meeting tomorrow..and Im not going to stop her, but should I be concerned? Or just keep a beady eye?
