I have students asking, what can I eat to get rid of love handles? And they pinch, and theres nothing there, Jakubczak said. Three years ago, Jakubczak saw about four male students during the school year who were asking for help to lose weight. These days, she said, she sees at least one a week. In addition to asking about how to look like someone on the cover of a fitness magazine, male students are doing extreme dieting, exercising compulsively, using food supplements or combining said. , all three, Jakubczak Randi Wortman, a clinical psychologist who woiks with men and women with eating disorders at her Bethesda, Md., office, said the increase in male eating disorders is only about five to 10 years old For women it comes from the Twiggy generation, Wortman said.
