Anorexia Nervosa

Anorexia nervosa is a serious, potentially life-threatening eating disorder characterized by self-starvation and excessive weight loss.

Symptoms

*inadequate food intake leading to a weight that is clearly too low.
*intense fear of weight gain, obsession with weight and persistent behavior to prevent weight gain.
*Self-esteem overly related to body image.
Inability to appreciate the severity of the situation.
*binge-Eating/Purging Type involves binge eating and/or purging behaviors during the last three months.
*restricting Type does not involve binge eating or purging.

Eating disorders experts have found that prompt intensive treatment significantly improves the chances of recovery. Therefore, it is important to be aware of some of the warning signs of anorexia nervosa.

Warning Signs

*dramatic weight loss.
*preoccupation with weight, food, calories, fat grams, and dieting.
*refusal to eat certain foods, progressing to restrictions against whole categories of food (e.g. no carbohydrates, etc.).
*Frequent comments about feeling “fat” or overweight despite weight loss.
*anxiety about gaining weight or being “fat.”
*denial of hunger.
*development of food rituals (e.g. eating foods in certain orders, excessive chewing, rearranging food on a plate).
*consistent excuses to avoid mealtimes or situations involving food.
*excessive, rigid exercise regimen--despite weather, fatigue, illness, or injury, the need to “burn off” calories taken in.
*withdrawal from usual friends and activities.

In general, behaviors and attitudes indicating that weight loss, dieting, and control of food are becoming primary concerns.

Health Consequences of Anorexia Nervosa
Anorexia nervosa involves self-starvation.; The body is denied the essential nutrients it needs to function normally, so it is forced to slow down all of its processes to conserve energy.
This “slowing down” can have serious medical consequences:
*Abnormally slow heart rate and low blood pressure, which mean that the heart muscle is changing. The risk for heart failure rises as heart rate and blood pressure levels sink lower and lower.
*reduction of bone density (osteoporosis), which results in dry, brittle bones.
*muscle loss and weakness.
*Severe dehydration, which can result in kidney failure.
*fainting, fatigue, and overall weakness.
*Dry hair and skin, hair loss is common.
*Growth of a downy layer of hair called lanugo all over the body, including the face, in an effort to keep the body warm.

Girls never lack relationship skills, they upgrade techniques like fashion trend! ***************************** WOMEN WILL NEVER CHANGE! A woman and a man are involved in a car accident. It's a bad one, caused by the woman's reckless driving. Both of their cars are demolished but amazingly neither of them are hurt. After they crawl out of the cars, the woman says... “So, you're a man? That's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days." The man replied, "I agree with you completely. This must be a sign from God! The woman continued, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely damaged, but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune." Then she hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opens it, drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman. The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man. The man asks, "Aren't you having any?" She replies, "Naaaaah. I think I'll just wait for the police to come and collect their evidence. "Drunk driver offence!"

cum see wetin I dey talk

it will be30 years since ace journalist and founding editor-in-chief of Newswatch Dele Giwa was killed with a parcel bomb. Assistant Editor (News) OLUKOREDE YISHAU examines efforts to identify and punish the mastermind(s) of the murder IT all happened on Talabi Street, off Adeniyi Jones Avenue, Ikeja. A Sunday it was, when Christians were busy worshipping God in churches. House 25 where the unprecedented tragedy occured has now given way to a hospital, where doctors save lives. Here 24 years ago, the founding editor-in-chief of Newswatch magazine, Sunmonu Oladele Giwa, better known as Dele Giwa was killed in his prime. He was just 39. That Sunday morning, the merchants of death gave the deadly parcel to his then 19-year-old son, Billy, who received it on his behalf. The assailants had vanished into thin air when he attempted to open the parcel and a blast occurred ‘’tearing open’’ his lower region. His colleague, Kayode Soyinka who was with him,Newswatch’s London Bureau Chief then suffered perforated eardrums. Giwa died at the First Foundation Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos, where he was rushed to after the explosion. Before opening the parcel of death, he was said to have remarked: ‘This must be from the president.’ The military president at that time was Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, who is angling to run for president. This decision has, for the past few months, brought to the fore the controversy surrounding the death of Giwa. Advertorials, cartoons, interviews and other editorial materials have taken sizeable space in the media, querying Babangida’s right to run. Many of these materials linked the death of Giwa to Babangida. But the former military president has repeatedly denied culpability. Interestingly, the death of Chief Gani Fawehinmi, who was Giwa’s lawyer and the arrowhead of the campaign to hold Babangida liable for the death of the first class journalist has seen his son, Mohammed taking up the gauntlet. Fawehinmi once got an order to sue two security chiefs-- Col. Halilu Akilu and Lt. Col. A.K. Togun-- who were the director of Military Intelligence and the deputy director, State Security Service under the Babangida military regime. But both officers were exonerated for lack of evidence. He took the case up to the Supreme Court and still lost for lack of evidence. He also tried the Oputa panel. All to no avail. Today, a book is billed for presentation on the Giwa death saga. Dele Giwa’s Murder: The Answered Question is written by journalist-cum-lawyer, Mr. Richard Akinnola. Another book on the matter is in the works. It is written by Maj. Debo Basorun (rtd.), who was the military press secretary to Babangida. In a newspaper interview last June, Basorun said he was being hounded because of the book and the facts it contains on who killed Giwa.u In his words: “I was privy to some of the terrible things ... when we were in the army… My problem is 2011. Babangida wants to become president again. I am not saying I am the only person, but I am one of those who know that he is connected to the death of Dele Giwa. That is why they have been trying to kill me. “I was sent to do a dirty job in America in respect of Dele Giwa’s death. I was sent to cover up what they did. I refused to comply. When I came back, they threw me into jail. Newspapers reported it that time. I protested. The press was on my side then. I was shouting on the roof top that ‘These people want to kill me.’ They decided to send me to a unit in Makurdi, which was a Siberia then. I refused to go. Incidentally, the General Staff Headquarters, which was my unit (and Babangida’s unit too), issued an order that whoever wanted to leave the army should volunteer. It coincided with what was happening to me. So, I volunteered and resigned. I quoted their order in the resignation letter I sent them. But out of those who resigned then, I was the only person whose resignation letter was rejected. I contacted some attorneys. Alao Aka-Basorun was my lawyer.” Maj. Bashorun went on: “Babangida has assembled a think tank of south-westerners who have warned him of my tell-all book that is about to be launched. They warned him that if I am allowed to launch the book, the expose contained there will totally destroy his chances of even gaining a foothold any where in the South-West.” But Babangida recently insisted he was being wrongly accused. He said: “For the umpteenth time, I wish to state that I did not murder Dele Giwa. In addition, no agent or agency of government was found guilty of this heinous act by the law courts. I am a man of great faith in God and I believe in the sanctity of life. My discipline as a military commander also does not condone the killing of defenceless innocent people.” Giwa’s colleagues in Newswtach have also resigned to fate. The Chief Executive Officer, Newswatch Communications, Mr. Ray Ekpu, said it had become a routine for him to talk about Giwa in the last 24 years. He said it brings sad memories. Ekpu said since security agents have failed to find his killers, God will surely do one day. Next year, it will be 25 years since Giwa, who studied English and Communication Arts at the University of Brooklyn, where he bagged Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees, left. But the legacies of this refined journalist, who had a stint with the prestigious New York Times before he was convinced to return home in 1976, can never be obliterated. And the question continues: Who killed Dele Giwa? May be an answer will come soon. May be.
