Results of a survey showed that more than 1/3 of girls who admitted to dieting were found to merge into pathological dieting; overly limiting dieting or too low calorically. Also adding ¼ of those found to suffer from either a partial or full-on eating disorder (dosomething.org). As a freshman in college now, I have noticed more than ever the predominantly negative consequences of body image. Being in a sorority, I am surrounded by girls my age on a daily basis. Among those I know a few, whom are my sisters and best friends, whom suffer through a destructive eating disorder everyday. Put in numbers 58% of college-aged women feel compelled to be a certain weight
