In our society, the perceived perfect image of girls falls right in line with the slenderness of girls 10 to 12 years old. This unrealistic perception spawned by the supermodels seen today in ads for popular clothing and undergarment makers such as Victoria's secret has caused many girls to become obsessed with thier own images.In our society, girls are ten times more likely to develop eating disorders and compulsive exercise habits that can be life threatening and often do prove to be fatal.
Here are the most commonly developed eating disorders:"Anorexia nervosa" is a life threatening disorder that occurs when you eat really little food and become obsessed about your weight even when you're badly underweight. An anorexic person will often see themsleves as being fat when they look at themselves in the mirror even though they appear really skinny to everyone else.
People with this disorder often turn to laxatives and various diet aids such as fat burning pills to bring their wieght down to dangerous levels."Bulimia" is a disorder that occurs when you go on an eating binge, and then immediately purge it all out. You will eat a large amount of food, even junk food, and then get it all back out of your system by both self-induced vomiting and laaxtive use.
This practice may thorw off your body's mineral balance in the blood and put the health of your heart at risk."Compulsive overeating" followed by "compulsive over exercising" is a pattern that's not as dangerous as anorexia and bulimia but still can lead to both physical and psychological issues.
This is a pattern in which you will eat a large amount of food followed up immediately by exercising excessively hard and for a long period of time.It is estimated that more than one out of three collage female athletes may at one time develop an eating disorder.
If you suffer from an eating disorder, seek medical help as soon as possible cause if left untreated, these disorders can cause permanent health issues and even death.Jim O'Neill gives you tons of valuable inofrmation on the subjects of weight loss, fitness, and nutrition to make it not hard for you to live a healthy lifestyle.
