growing up is a part of life. You need to make your friend know that she cant be one size for ever. Encourge her. Tell her guys like girls that have a nice shape not really skinny girls. Small isnt everything.

Anorexia can cause infertility(no babies), a low immune system, frail bones, and ultimatly DEATH. Tell her that she means alot to you and that if she died suddenly you wouldnt know what to do. She's important to you and she's hurting herself which is hurting you (and others around her) so tell her if she doesnt want to see you in pain to stop hurting herself because not eating (or throwing up what you eat on purpose) is dangerous and it scares and hurts friends and family.
