There's very little, if anything, that you can do to help her. She needs to see an eating disorder specialist. It's a problem in her head. There could be any number of reasons why she thinks the ethiopian look is pretty, but it boils down to it's self harm. The one thing you CAN do is educate her about cocaine and discourage her from becoming a hooker for her next fix. Not everyone gets addicted to cocaine, but she is undoubtably going to be predisposed to addicition since she already has some serious issues.

i think you just need to keep saying so. Some people are just naturally lean. Or maybe you dont have as much of an appetite as others. \nI guess it doesn't matter whether you are skinny or fat they will always find a way to judge you. You just need to tell them where to shove it. Certainly your family should love you for what you are as a person. You are beautiful.

i think it depends on your relationship with the person and the situation...\ni had put on some weight once and ran into an aquaintance and at first i felt kinda wierd cuz i had gained the weight and kinda embarrassed....but then the girl said "it's been a long time since i've seen you...you look great, you've put on some weight and you look so healthy and so much less stressed out"\n....you might ask how she's doing...maybe she just had a baby or maybe she has  a health issue...\nor maybe say "wow you've changed so much since i last saw you..." and then add a compliment like "i really like how you're wearing your hair now, you look great"

I'm not a fat girl, and I am.. pretty skinny... and this is just something i want you to know, DON'T EVER listen to what others have to say about how YOU look. You are your own person.I say you don't get fat even if they want you too. If they want you to.. they must really not be someone who really cares for you. Being skinny is a gift to some people and a curse for others. But i think that everything anyone has, is a gift. Don't listen to negative comments. Do what's... right^-^

Something delicious and not to high on calories if she is one of those girls. Don't go for something slimming, she may think you are saying she is fat. Cheesecake is good so is Strawberry shortcake! Chocolate is almost always the way to go.

Wow!  If you talk like this about a friend, I 'd hate to see how you diss your enemies!  Friends are supposed to be supportive, non-judmental and not broadcast the other friend's weaknesses.  The answer is to just speak privately to her.\n\nBe tactful and tell your friend that you are worried about her and why.  Please do not call her a "whore" or not "good looking enough" as you will hurt her feelings and close her mind to anything constructive you might have to say.  Not to mention that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and your opinion may not be the same as someone else.  You might want to tactfully suggest that she seek counseling to find out why she is on a self-destruct course.  There may be some driving force or emotional issue in her past that you know nothing about.\n\nHowever, she is an adult at 19 and is entitled to make her own choices and mistakes in her life so if she rejects what you say, you have to accept it.

You guys need to tell her how you feel.  If she does not shape up, then stop being friends with her.

give your friend the support a good friend would tell her that it is important to stay healthy and not worry if shethinksshe is fat she sounds like she is just right or a little to thin she should be proud that she doesnt have much bigger issues such as health etc.

She probably is fat.  Tell her to lose weight.

First of all, to the guy who said "get another girl..a slim one of course" you are mean, and didn't even address the question. Not everyone is as superficial as you are.\n\nNow, if you think she's cute, and are mostly dissapointed that you can't enjoy physical activities with her because she always finds excuses not to go, then I suggest that you kindly explain to her that its something you really enjoy, and something you want her to be a part of, and that you can take it slow if she wants. I think you're right about her being afarid she won't be able to keep up (thats how I'd feel) \n\nYou could also just stop by her house and ask her to take a walk with you, or take her to go swimming at a lake or something...activities that are romantic as well as counting as excersise. Once she is able to be comfortable around you in these sort of situations, she'll agree to them more and more, and most likely start to lose a bit of weight. \n\nAnd if she says she goes to the gym, why not suggest that the two of you go together? \n\nJust keep in mind that healthy weight loss takes a lot or work, pateince and time - and this applies to you as well as her. Be supportive and don't get impatient.\n\nSorry this was long, hope it helped.

if you've already been honest and open with her and expressed your worries which perhaps she hasnt listened to, maybe suggest you can go on a diet together?..so your with her every step of the way. and let her know that if she's not happy you are there to help. make sure she doesnt go below her ideal weight- you could suggest she could set a target weight to meet and once she's there to relax on the dieting and treat herself more often. if she is worried about losing weight remind her it is unhealthy and will make her feel worse about herself if she has no energy from lack of nutrients etc. it is more important to maintain a healthy diet and to excercise to keep the weight off rather than starving yourself...this can lead to problems later on in life, such as concieving and growth.

So she's not perfect....are you? If you want her to do something about her weight and you don't want to upset her there is only one way that I know of to do it. You don't tell her to lose weight. You could invite her to work out with you. Take walks together, go to the gym, or whatever works. If you have trouble getting her to do that then you should just simply say that healthy people should live longer lifes and you want to make sure that you are both around. Just make sure that you do the work too.
