My answer would be to just talk to this friend of yours. Tell her that you're worried about her, and of course a little boost of confidence will go a long way in most girls.

Seeing as I don't know the girl in question, I can't really say whether this is a serious situation, or the mere case of some compliment hunting, but if even you're not sure, I'd simply talk to her about it.

If at some point you find out that she is doing something to hurt herself, and has an eating disorder, or is using a bogus diet that lacks nutrition, I'd consult someone older about this. She might get mad at you, but if something of concern is happening, it's always the best idea to tell someone like a school counseler or a parent, and let them deal with the situation as it needs be.

If you see dark circles under her eyes or see her dizzy speak with her parents about it they'll certainly take matters into their own hands or get someone else's opinion to tell her she doesn't need dieting that she looks fine the way she looks.She must probably go through stress.Help her try convincing her to stop its bad tell her things that will get the foolish idea of too much dieting if she doesn't really need to.Hope you can stop her.

Talk to her about it. Say stuff like, I don't want you hurting yourself, you're not fat at all. If she doesn't listen, talk to her parents or yours. You shouldn't have to take full responsability. Let an adult handle it. I don't know how old you are so this advice could be useless to you....but I hope I helped!!

tell her that she looks perfect how she is and reasher her that if she is really skinny and she goes on diets she couple be asking to get sick.If she doesnt stop after a while its always a good idea to look things up like that and tell her the harm that can happen to her body

the best thing to do is talk to her about it and tell her your concerned. theres alot of stuff she can do to watch her weight, but its not totally a diet either. you can actually help her by telling her better ways to lose weight, the healthy way. she needs to sleep at least 9-10 hrs every night, make sure she eats breakfast, and all 3 meals w/ 3 snacks inbetween, healthy 1s. that may seem like alot but if you eat every so often, it helps your metabolism. she also needs to exersize. maybe if she thinks she really DOES need to lose this weight, at least you're telling her the healthy way to do it. if you don't want her dieting at all, tell her how you feel.

good luck!

number one thing you must do is be there for her no matter what stay by her side

have her mother talk to her because if you say shes really skinny and she thinks she is fat and is on diets that is not good

you cant do much in this case but her parents could

hope that helps if you need anything else drop one in my inbox ♥
