she has an ed, but she has control of it. you cant have "control" over your ed, the ed controls you! it doesnt matter how much you hope that you can control it - it´s just not possible. |

Yes, I agree with Carin in terms of how it doesn't matter how thin (or fat) you are...you can definitely die from an ED at ANY weight.
And sure, Nichole is fat compared to a lot of severly emaciated anorexics...and if nichole is only restricting calories, then she might be fine for a long time. But, if there are other ED behaviors involved, then she might be in more immediate trouble. Plus, some people's bodies can't handle food restriction alone, so it's possible (not as likely but possible) that food restriction alone could prove to be fatal, even to someone who's not severly emaciated like nichole.
Also, I'm so sick of hearing how Nichole doesn't eat. I hate to break it to some people, but you can only survive for about 2 months (I think) w/o food. Nichole would have been long gone if she wasn't eating.
Finally, I also agree that you cannot control an ED...that is if it's a full-blown ED; I cannot imagine how it would be possible to "control" an ED.

That has got to be one of the silliest things I've heard in a long time? Have you ever seen REALLY sick anorexics, frankie? Nicole is fat compared to them, even though she's thin. Trust me, I know a lot of anorexic people, they're ALIVE, but they're emiciated, not like Nicole. She's nowhere near dying. Guys, give her a break! If she has an ED, let her deal with it her self and stop complaining about it. Remember, she's her own person, and only she can make the choices. it doesnt matter how emaciated you look, you can die anyway, due to chemical imbalances inside your body. like lack of potassum which can lead to heart failure. just thought you should know. God, of course I know that, but you can't set a death date on her! People can go trough they're whole lives being sick and scarily skinny, but they live. If Nicole stays at the weight she's at now, she can continue living 'til she's old. I know some people here thinks it exciting, guessing on her death date etc, but that's just not how it works. Deal with it! |

^Yes, I agree with everything your saying...except of course for the certainty that you have that Nichole will live to be old if she "stays at the weight she is now."
Nichole might be perfectly healthy at this weight, (i.e. all of her organs function properly, her vital signs are good, etc).
However, she might not be healthy.
You can't just look at a person's weight, (whether they be under, over, or average weight) and assume that they're healthy (or not).
I think Nichole's weight alone has little to do with her health right now; I think the bigger question is what means she's using to lose weight, and how her organs are reacting to her behaviors.
Notwithstanding, I *completely* agree with lawson that setting a "death date" for nichole is absolutely ridiculous...and I would add ignorant and insensitive.
