Ok, but can we stop for a second and say that telling a overly thin person she needs to gain weight is probably equally counter productive?

1. She may have the same issues the overweight person has in regards to eating.

2. She is usually trying to get thinner so telling her she is too thin is actually validating her eating system!!

A better approach might be teling her she looks unhealthy and unattractive because of a lack of muscle tone. And then leading the conversation from there.
