    Default Girl working every day to lose weight?

    One of the girls at my club yesterday in the dressing room was talking about how she's danced 10 nights in a row so far to lose weight. Exercise is healthy and all but I think she's pushing herself too hard. She said she eats healthy everyday but i'm concerned that she's gonna hurt herself. How can I tell her?

    There's a thread on here where girls talk about how many days in a row they've worked. Honestly, if she's eating & getting enough sleep she will be fine for a lot longer than 10 days. I've worked 10 days straight, & my body just sort of re-set itself after. I'm getting ready to do another long string of work days next week too.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    The human body is meant to take some stress. This idea that people should exercise only 3 days a week is just ludicrous. You're SUPPOSED to be active daily.

    As long as she's eating good food and getting enough rest, she's fine.

    I agree she is fine. Ive not worked 10 days but done 8 days lots of times. Ive also worked with girls who regularly worked 20+ days in a row and then would take 3 weeks off. I dont really think its your place to say anything anyway. If someone I work with tried to tell me what they think I should do on any aspect I would be pretty defensive.

    As long as she's not displaying symptoms of anorexia athletica, she'll be fine.

    This is exactly what I'm worried about. She seems dead tired yet works anyway. I know the body can handle stress but it seems a little crazy to me when she comes in half asleep and dances herself into a sweat 7 nights a week

    Anorexia athletica is a much deeper issue than what you are describing. She might not be approaching her goals correctly, but it doesn't sound like a severely injurious situation, but if you are really worried than educate yourself on the issue, and approach her with solutions, not problems.

    As someone who goes very hard at the gym. I cant really see how a girl could work out to a dangerous level at work, unless she is doing insane stage sets with tons and tons of pole work. I mean its physical but its no where near as physical as going for a 10k run or doing a body attack class followed by an RPM or something. Shes probably more tired from the late nights. She would maybe be at risk for knee injury but as long as shes not in pain Im sure shes fine.

    it's not a great idea, but it's her life.

    it wouldn't work for me. working that much would make me stress-eat, and i'd gain. if i want to lose weight, i'd have to work a lot so i can afford to take time off, then take some time off to focus on losing weight. if she can work and also lose weight, i'm damned jealous.

    it's also possible that she's lying, and she's working everyday for the money. strippers can tell some weird lies sometimes.
