Faced with the marketed image of the waif-like model, many women have become obsessed with their weight and food has become a secret form of self-punishment. The forms this problem may take are obsessional dieting, compulsive eating, binge and vomiting or anorexia. Aiming the advice directly at the sufferer, this work examines the different problems that may bring about such behavior, enabling the sufferer to understand the emotional meaning behind their eating disorder and begin the journey to recovery.
