Review: I had to watch it in my 8th grade PE class and it is very informative and somewhat graphic. It shows the scariness of it and makes you eat for one thing! You wont ever forget it!

Summary: VERY interesting!
Review: I have read many books about eating disorders, and this is the first video I have watched. I enjoyed it and it brought the people to life, instead of just reading about them in a book. It follows a few girls during and after treatment for eating disorders. It brought me to tears a few times and helped me understand just how serious eating disorders are. I am more concerned about myself now, too. Do yourself a favor and take an hour to watch this video. It is well worth your time, whether or not you have an eating disorder or know someone who does.

Summary: Very well done.
Review: I was so impressed with Dying to be Thin. I am a graduate student and I used this video while presenting on disordered eating in adolescence. My classmates and professor seemed very receptive to the video. This would be a great video to show to girls ages 15 and up. It focuses on anorexia and bulimia as well as treatments for both.

Summary: Interesting and informative.
Review: This video shows exactly what it's like to have an eating disorder. I now have a better understanding. I'm not a sufferer of anorexia or bulimia, but I do know that this shows what can happen if you are a sufferer and effective ways to treat the disorders. I watched this because psychology is my area of interest, but I would recommend this. It could be a very valuable teaching tool.
