"A new study of teenagers has found that the same risk factors are associated with both being overweight and with disordered eating behaviors like binge eating and using diet pills. Moreover, food related problems are extraordinarily common among urban teens affecting 44 percent of adolescent girls and 29 percent of boys."Now if they can only find a way to use the thin Force for good and not evil.
"More than one third of the overweight girls in the study engaged in what the researchers called "extreme weight control behaviors," like vomiting or taking diet pills or laxatives in an attempt to lose weight. "We usually look for these behaviors in very thin girls, but here we see a very high prevalence in overweight girls," said lead author Dianne Neumark-Sztainer, Ph.D., professor of public health at the University of Minnesota."Clearly fat people either do not vomit enough or soon enough after eating to prevent absorption of Calories.
Adding two cents and nonsense is Kelly Brownell, a fat expert advising fat people on how not to be fat.
"'This study shows that some common factors may create vulnerability to or protection against both problems,' said Brownell..."As if he can "create protection" against just one of these problems. Let him do that for himself, then talk.
Of course, if he talks, he risks opening his mouth which will likely lead to inserting food.
Kelly needs to take the right way to vomit for weight loss class.
Now for the obligatory it is someone else's fault that fat people stay fat because the someone elses are not nice.
"She added, 'We have seen over the years that it does not work to make people feel worse about their bodies. The data are striking talking about weight, worrying too much about diet, focusing on it increases risk not only of eating disorders, but also of being overweight.'"But no word of blaming too many Calories in.
