Date de diffusion: Nov 01, 2021

Renee says she has been caring for her 34-year-old daughter, Danielle, for over two decades because of her extreme case of anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Danielle, who now weighs 68 pounds, says she first believed she was fat in elementary school and then starved herself at age 14 and dropped around 50 pounds. Danielle says she was then admitted into a hospital and had a feeding tube put in, beginning a constant cycle of hospital visits. Now, as an adult, Danielle admits she has posed as a nutrition counselor advising others online on how to lose weight. Danielle’s friend, Thalia, says she felt compelled to reach out to Dr. Phil for advice after seeing Danielle looking emaciated in birthday photos on social media.
