Kassia / Fitness Article

[Guest guest]

Thanks for passing on the article, Kassia! I know of at least 3 aerobics instructors at one gym location that have had eating disorders. I heard someone say that after dancing and modeling, the fitness industry is #2 for eating disorders. I am the anomally of being a chubby instructor and do compare myself to other instructors sometimes and feel like a cow. The [sort of] good news is, when I look at the general population, say at the grocery store - I'm way more fit than the average person. Anyway, this was a good reminder that appearing fit doesn't always mean that one really is. If you're forcing yourself to throw up in the bathroom and missing your period there is definitely something amiss...
