Elle Lietzow, then 17, was eager to be popular in school under the delusion that starving will make her thin and look sexy. She refused to eat nor drink water.
After a week of fasting she collapsed with a seizure and was rushed to hospital, where horrified doctors and nurses were surprise she was still breathing.
Her toes and fingers had lost their circulation and her nails became brittle, black and snapped easily.
Her long blonde hair was falling out in clumps, her periods had stopped and she became so emaciated her hips and ribs jutted out from under her skin.
PICS:
Message from Lietzow 'she said, for those suffering with anorexia at the moment is that only you can save yourself. You have to make the change to choose life'
Elle Lietzow now in a healthier state (right),
Elle Lietzow, now 19, is from Melbourne, Australia.
