Anorexia affects mainly women (95%) and there is no single known cause for this serious condition. People who are anorexic have a distorted body image with obsessive fear of gaining weight. There are some genetic tendencies toward eating disorders (as noted in twin studies) as well as behavioral, emotional and cultural causes. It is a serious medical condition that requires treatment and sometimes hospitalization.

That is really sad and a very effective ad.
I think it's sad that in the mirror the girl looks like a good healthy and beautiful weight. And yet that's still being looked at as fat, not that she's viewing herself as incredibly obese.
O-kay, i know i shouldn't say this, but....super envious...of the real girl....
tracy: I presume you mean the woman in the mirror and not the "real girl".
No, not the girl in the mirror...the "real girl".style
PS i do not know where "style" came from, but how ironic...
