Question:

What do you think about a 48 year old female that weighs 83 pounds???

MY BOYFRIENDS MOTHER WEIGHS 83 POUNDS IT MAKES ME SAD. I JUST WONDER WHY SHE DOES IT IS NOT MORMAL. HE SAYS THAT SHE IS UNDER STRESS BUT CAN THAT MAKE YOU BE THAT SMALL? BY THE WAY SHE IS 5'2. WHAT DO YOU THINK???


Answers:

She may or may not have an eating disorder, but her weight is rather dangerous. Tell her that you're concerned that she could have an undiagnosed illness since her weight has gotten so low, or because she could have done damage if its just from not eating due to stress. No matter what it is, the doctor will be able to tell if she's truely ill and probably will be able to get to the root cause better than anyone else can. If she's really damaging her health, perhaps it will be a wake up call when she finds out?
