Our Action
Karina and I want to come to a class full of freshmen and talk to them about eating disorders. We want them to know about the dangers of having anorexia and bulimia nervosa. We hope to come 6th and 8th period.
I will talk to them about my experience with eating disorder. I want to tell them that they should not take that way. I know that at some point they will think that, that’s the only to lose weight but I want to tell them that there are other ways.
Karina: Eating disorders has many causes. The causes are the media, self-image, and fitting into society, and peer pressure. Eating disorders is not done on purpose. Eating disorders is a mental illness. After it is advanced is Anorexia Nervosa the person sees itself overweight when in reality they are underweight. or vice versa when the person has overeating disorders it keeps eating and eating. The reason of overeating is the lack of expressing their emotions and taking them out. Food serves for them to forget their problems and take out their feelings. Both eating disorders leave permanent health issues, mental and physical problems.
