Wow, that except from her blog is really disturbing. Yes, she definitely has eating/food issues.

She will keep going as long as she can. Anyone that has been ravaged by cancer is never the same as before. The disease changes people and their body functions. Her weight issues could be attested to her illness.

Am watching her now on ENews" She looks so UGLY..... turning my T.V off, She just looks so BAD.

what is wrong with you harpies. Every woman in Hollywood is unhealthily thin. Giuliana rancic no more so. She is tall and long/lanky, which is why it may look more dramatic, but seriously, why are you giving this so much air time?

And by the way, my cancer doctor also told me to keep the body fat down.

as someone who used to be very sick with an eating disorder and still struggles it is painfully obvious that she has food, eating, body issues.
she is a naturally thin person, but it is beyond that now. cancer or not, she didn't look well before that either.

the way she has talked about food in the past, her appearance and talk about herself all point to an eating disorder.

Giuliana Rancic was frighteningly thin before her cancer diagnosis, so I highly doubt that's a reason. And where is the science/evidence that body fat is related to cancer return? I've known many people who had low body fat, who had and died from cancer, specifically on the second time the cancer came back.

One thing. Robyn Roberts said she was advised to keep her body fat ubder a certain amount to avoid a cancer from coming back. I wonder if this is why she is so thin.

many doctors really don't have E.D. on their radar. I have known many girls with an eating disorder just hoping doc will notice something and help them and they don't.
if simple blood tests come back fine they will declare everything okay. I don't know why really if it is lack of education or the taboo nature of eating disorders.

she clearly needs helps and most people with an E.D. can tell she is struggling.

To 1:14 and a question about a physician intervening;

I wonder about this, too. I have an ED in my personal health history (I put it there) and so even annually, my ob/gyn checks in with me about this...how I'm doing, reminds me to take my vites, etc.

The fall out from disordered eating often won't manifest itself until years later...oral health problems like eroded enamel ( from vomiting), osteopenia/osteoporosis, heart palpitations, digestive issues...

I'd love to hear from physicians...are you not required to intervene?

Many people with anorexia are over achievers / perfectionists and they keep going full speed until they drop or someone intervenes and forces them into treatment. Remember she doesn't think she is skinny, so any symptoms she has get written of as just being from living a hectic life and schedule. they are often great at 'rationalizing' everything to their family and it makes it hard for family to challenge them as they have to say "i don't believe you".

I get that she is rationalizing her behavior - everytime she talks about how she'll only have pasta if she can have a spoon of Bill's or pass her 1/2 serving all around the table, you can tell she is rationalizing. But since she is still functioning, doesn't that mean that medically she is okay? I mean if her body wasn't okay, would it allow her to keep her hectic schedule for as long as she has? Or does it not work like that?

Doesn't work like that. Even when not medically okay anorexics can continue to work out for long periods of time and keep up hectic work or school schedules.

I get that people can deny and rationalize. She gives reasons for eating one spoon of Bill's pasta rather than ordering her own, which I'm sure make sense in her own mind. I'm sure if someone expresses concern -- a friend, colleague etc. -- in her mind she's probably thinking -- I know they just said they're worried about me but I know it's just their way of saying they're jealous and I look awesome. BUT doesn't she see doctors? Since she was ill recently, I'm guessing she still has to follow up with doctors regularly at least for a while to make sure things stay stable. Don't they take one look at her and lecture, send her to a psychiatrist, send her to a nutritionist? How do you deny that? Do you just not go? Do you think the dr. is also complimenting you? I know it's a complicated issue but I'm just trying to understand the thought process.

Yep. Until she has a heart attack and dies.

And then the report comes out without attributing it to anorexia and another opportunity is lost.
