Recognizing Signs of Eating Disorders
When one makes constant excuses to not eat at meals
When one is preoccupied with food and calories
When one constantly complains about weight, even when thin
When one constantly complains of being cold and wears sweatshirts in hot weather
When one draws back from society and becomes very secretive
When one's nails turn blue
When one exercises excessively
