CN: Should a gym revoke the membership of something who obviously works out too much/has an eating disorder?
LV: There is a women who works out at my gym who very VERY obviously has an eating disorder. She looks like she's in her 50s, about 5'3'' and cannot weigh more than 75-80 lbs. She is all skin and bones (thinking maybe she was heavy before). At any rate she will work out for hours, sometimes I do 2 a days- work out with my trainer around 10:00 then go back at night for a group yoga class at like 5 or 6 and she'll still be there. Now, maybe she leaves like I do, but I don't think so.
She also stands in front of the mirror in the womens locker room and pinches at herself- her skin- for.ev.er.
My trainer today told me that a female personal trainer has tried to talk to her before, round about asking her if she needs any training help or if she'd like a body mass comp test... I guess getting at helping the woman realize she's got an issue- and the lady flat out said don't ever ask me about my body fat again.
Lately, she's been bringing her teenage daughter with her. The girl is a normal, fit weight for a 14ish age girl but I dont think she's old enough to drive so she's at the gym for hours with her mom.
Anyone think the gym has, a moral obligation to step in and tell the woman to cut back on hours? Or to revoke her membership? Or something? I guess she could just go to another gym but... idk I feel like her working out to excess is one thing but now that I see her healthy daughter being forced into her mom's routine I feel like its going too far.
