What Lady Pi Phi said about eating disorders is true. While a good friend who is a dietician tells me that she is seeing more and more men develop eating disorders their problems rarely if ever become not eating.
A good family friend of ours is in the UCLA eating disorders program. She is 15, 5'7" and had gotten down to 77 pounds before being admitted full time again. During the 6 months she was living there and I was going to see her about once or twice a week I never saw a male patient who was there for eating disorders. It may have been the sadest place I have ever been. Watching these young girls destroy their bodies was heart wrenching.
