eating food

my first idea is to photograph a plate on a table the plait will be empty I wanted to have a story based on a person with a eating disorder and what they act like while pretending to eat food. the empty plate at the beginning of the circular narrative is to show the beginning and the end of the meal time

 

Anorexia

 

 I thought because I am basing this idea on a eating disorder that I should do some research on it so I chose to do anorexia

 

Anorexia nervosa is a complex eating disorder with three key features: refusal to maintain a healthy body weight an intense fear of gaining weight a distorted body image Because of your dread of becoming fat or disgusted with how your body looks, eating and mealtimes may be very stressful. And yet, what you can and can’t eat is practically all you can think about.

 

Thoughts about dieting, food, and your body may take up most of your day—leaving little time for friends, family, and other activities you used to enjoy. Life becomes a relentless pursuit of thinness and going to extremes to lose weight. But no matter how skinny you become, it’s never enough. While people with anorexia often deny having a problem, the truth is that anorexia is a serious and potentially deadly eating disorder. Fortunately, recovery is possible. With proper treatment and support, you or someone you care about can break anorexia’s self-destructive pattern and regain health and self-confidence.
