SW212 asked:
I am concerned about a family member who has recently admitted to being anorexic for almost a year. She consumes between 1200-1500 calories a day and works out for about 40 minutes each day as well. She would like to overcome this by adding more calories into her diet gradually while trying to maintain her low weight, but is very resistant to seeking professional help. While this plan may not be ideal, any help she can recieve will be better than nothing. Any suggestions?
