How many times does it need to be said that she is anorexic? 
She is anorexic. She has said so. [/quote]

Is or was? Is anorexia a condition you have permanently?[/quote]

Yes, anorexia is considered a permanent condition. Like alcoholism, you can be in or out of recovery.

A family member died of anorexia. I do not have an issue with people expressing concern over an admitted anorexic weight loss. I suspect if people had expressed more concern for my family member, and alerted us to her substantial weight loss while away at college, we may haven been able to get her in treatment before it was too late.

I do see where some posters are coming from about how inappropriate it is to shame very thin women.

On the other hand, in the case of Lily Collins, was brave enough to share her struggle with eating disorders publically. Having done so, many of us, including those who have dealt with our own eating disorders, feel a connection with her and her struggle. This is why people are concerned.

On top of that, she famously lost 20 pounds off of her already slender frame to play a person suffering from an eating disorder. It's hard to look at the previews for Emily in Paris without noticing that she looks more like she did when she filmed the movie than she did during the first season. [/quote]
