Anorexia....


Caught the movie " Bad Habits" ... A spanish film.. Filmed in Mexico..


Synopsis of the show...
-------------
Matilde is a nun convinced that faith moves mountains. Secretly she begins a mystic fasting to end what she considers to be the second great flood. Elena is a thin and fashion-conscious woman ashamed of her daughter's chubbiness. She's willing to do the impossible to make her daughter Linda thin so Linda will look like a little princess on the day she receives her first communion. At the same time Elen's husband Gustavo, a professor of architecture - cannot cope any more with his wife's bones sticking into him during more intimate moments. For relief, he turns his attention to a buxom female student with a hearty appetite.
--------------
I felt sad for the little gal in the show.. The mom is an anorexic herself and she hates seeing her kid fat... To the extent that the mom finds other slimmer girls prettier than her little kid.. In the end, the little gal dripped more than the prescribed amount of appetite suppressing medication in her mom's water... Her mom died but the little gal didn't know that wat she dripped was onli placebo... The real cause: Her mom died of being too thin.... Malnutrition..

The coming sun... THe few hours of suffering... the indescribable sense of acconplishment.. Army Half Marathon. 21 km.... I am NOT PREPARED!


Anyway... a very nice ad from discovery channel.. Enjoy
