jonathan856:anorexia affects both men and woman but mostly woman so thats what I will focus on this post.
if a woman is terrified of getting fat or being a normal weight.
Have her pretend to be that weight for a day or so and see its not so bad.
Wearing a fat suit or just some padding might be a good way to over come the fear of being a little bigger.
After words say "You were bigger for a day and the world did not end"
I think thats why celebrities have gone under cover wearing fat suits.
To play on the fear of getting fat most women have.
Note I have found this a lot in research that having anorexia often causes a great deal of rebound weight gain.
Also often it is not permanent as many eventually lose some of the weight and make it to a healthy weight naturally.

Megan Jayne Crabbe.
Treatment
show the anorexic the fat suit or pads on a manikin
she might say something like thats not to bad
the let her try it on
she will think omg im huge
but the point of this is to show the woman how distorted her mind is.
It looks the same on You as the manikin
if You were to try this with obese fat suit I think it would traumatize the women
a lot of anorexics would rather be dead than fat.
there are some challenges going around for anorexics in recovery.
let some one pick what You eat for a day (family friends)
the 10 k cal challenge.
maybe it could be suggested to do a fat suit challenge.
Pleas note as of the posting of this I have not bin able to find anything on this subject on the Internet.
if You do find anything pleas share.
As somebody who has had a variety of eating disorders, including anorexia, I think this would just function as a sort of "reverse thinspo" situation and would not help.
