I am asking and being 100% serious so please I am begging no stupid/insulting answers.

I am 21 and would like to lose weight, problem is I had an eating disorder for roughly 6yrs. I've been in recovery almost 2yrs so I'm doing good but it's really hard to diet without crossing the line back into an eating disorder. I wanted to try weight watchers but they don't allow people that had eating disorders to join.

So my question is how does Jenny Craig work? Is it anything like weight watchers?

I used to work for Jenny Craig. Jenny Craig is a calorie counting program. It is similar to Weight Watchers, except you purchase your food from Jenny Craig, and in Weight Watchers, you cook your own.

The most highly successful program for exactly what you are describing in your question above, is one called, Weigh Down, by Gwen Shamblin. You can Google Search this, and find it easily.

It is Internet based, as well as live groups in your area. All the information you need is on their website.

This program has an extremely high success rate for people with eating disorders, addiction problems, or those wanting to lose weight. It is nominally priced, so most any budget can participate.

I recommend Weigh Down head, and shoulders above any other program out there!

Hope this helped you.

Im doing a biology report (science in the news) on anorexia and all about its effects on the human body. I noticed all the different types of fasting people do e.g. water fasting, juice fasting, coke zero fasting.

1) Does anyone know the difference in them?

2) Also would coke zero actually work?

&& 3) What effects the different ones would have on the body?

coke zero one sounds stupid

No it is not caused by genes. It is caused by a poor self body image or a distorted body image that causes you to do extreme things like overexercise, not eat and abuse laxatives because you always see yourself as fat or not thin enough even though you may be skin and bones.
