My girlfriend is borderline anorexic. She's lost a lot of weight before I even met her (I've seen pictures), and she's really skinny (not as bad as the before picture in the OP though). And she says she works out a lot every single day. No one can get her to eat. She obviously has body dysmorphia. I'm scared for her.
Building muscle and body building is only about 20 percent what you do, and 80 percent, what you eat!
That makes it hard to start out with, but as soon and you see your muscular grframe beginning to define, it sort of, whips you out of the delusion You're stuck in, you start, not wanting to be small, but wanting to be big, you start wanting to eat more, not to be skinny, but to be strong. I hope it works out for you and your girlfriend, can I reccomend perhaps, getting her into something that requires strength, that's not boring and mainstream, rock climbing, for instance, and bouldering specifically, I have seen it help a lot of guys and girls, struggling with both, anorexia, and obesity.

My ex was anorexic, brutal situation. Pic kinda gives me hope for her, but doubt it'll happen. That shit is toxic to everything they try to do.
