[quote=Anonymous]I was a swimmer through college and can tell you that eating disorders are pretty common with girls in the sport. There is probably more to it than the weigh ins though. My guess is that she feels a ridiculous amount of pressure and cannot handle it, or something along those lines. Please get her some help and forget about the scholarship. I could be wrong but the fact that you mentioned the scholarship leads me to believe that you may be pressuring her about it or she may be pressuring herself about it. Trust me, it's not worth it because, as I'm sure you already know, this could do serious harm and it's likely to continue if she swims in college. As for the coach, I cannot believe they are still doing weigh ins, it's disgusting. I think he should be fired for it but if I were you I would be more concerned about getting help for my daughter.
