Dieting Danger Signs

How do you know if your diet is out of control? Warning signs include:

continuing to diet, even if not overweight
physical changes, such as weakness, headaches, or dizziness
withdrawal from family and friends
poor school performance
eating in secret
thinking about food all the time
restricting activities because of food or compulsive exercise
fear of food
wearing baggy clothes as a way to hide thinness
vomiting after meals or using laxatives
If you, or someone you know, shows any of these signs, talk to a trusted adult or doctor.

Dieting and weight control can consume your life. By accepting your body and making healthy choices, you can keep your weight under control and enjoy life at the same time.
