(edit to clarify) - I don't mean that she has a mental disorder like anorexia, I just mean the reasons behind it are similar. Also her goal - to be the heaviest woman ever - is completely unrealistic because if she ever reaches it she will loose all mobility and she will die.
Actually the main reasons behind feederism are erotic. This is a fetish that she and many others get a kick out of it for whatever reasons sort of like bdsm. And immobility btw is one of the hottest things they can imagine. Of course this is harmful and not all of them deny it but they think it's worth the price. When you have erotic fantasy vs. health I'm afraid that many would knowingly choose the former because they'd find it more satisfying than living on earth longer. Not everyone sees a correlation between length of life and satisfaction in life.
That's a very unusual definition of anorexia. I've always thought that anorexics were deluded into thinking that they're overweight when they're really underweight. But even so, if anorexia is analogous to feederism (which I doubt) then I say leave the anorexics alone too.
