2 types

Why?
Anorexia Nervosa

Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder that causes people to obsess about
their weight and the food they eat.

nervosa may starve themselves or exercise excessively.

depression, low heart rate, low blood pressure, low body temperature.
Long Term

Malnutrition, weight loss, organ damage, organ failure / malfunction, irregular
heart beats, depression, suicide, death.
Bulimia

People with bulimia may secretly binge — eating large amounts of food — and
then purge, trying to get rid of the extra calories in an unhealthy way.

For example, someone with bulimia may force vomiting or do excessive exercise.
Sometimes people purge after eating only a small snack or a normal-size meal.

Purging bulimia. You regularly self-induce vomiting or misuse laxatives,
diuretics or enemas after bingeing.

Nonpurging bulimia. You use other methods to rid yourself of calories and
prevent weight gain, such as fasting, strict dieting or excessive exercise.

Story
Barbie
Fact? Fiction?

Barbie's head would be two inches larger than the average American woman's
while resting on a neck twice as long and six inches thinner.

Her 16-inch waist would also be four inches thinner than her head, leaving
room for only half a liver and a few inches of intestine's she'd be entirely
incapable of lifting her head.

Like her fragile 3.5 inch wrists, her 6-inch ankles would prevent her from
heavy lifting. Then, as far as holding up her entire body - despite so much of
it missing - it'd be an entirely impossible feat requiring her to walk on all
fours

That method of mobility is further supported, strictly theoretically, by her
children's size three feet.

At 5’9” tall and weighing 110 lbs, Barbie would have a BMI of 16.24 and fit
the weight criteria for anorexia.
