Fiona?s a normal suburban teenage girl, but she can't seem to control her appetite. Periodically, she has a need to gorge herself on so much food that it hurts and then depresses her. She feels helpless to stop.  

Natalie is struck by how thin and beautiful the other girls at her college are. Now she?s doing everything she can to lose weight; starving herself, excessively exercising, using laxatives and diuretics, and avoiding situations and locations where she may be enticed to eat. Though she is quite thin, she sees herself as very fat.  

Tracy was always part of the ?popular? girls. But her jealousy over how thin she perceives her friends to be has caused her to go to extreme measures for controlling her weight, including throwing up after big meals and exercising to the point of exhaustion.
