Erin, 24, is blind-weighed at an eating-disorder clinic, Coconut Creek, Florida. She has asked to mount the scale backward so as not to see her weight gain.

Erin, 24 years old

"I hate being weighed. That is the worst part of my day. I do the blind weights, where I turn backward, but I’m getting to where I can hear the clicks, and I’m afraid to hear that second click at a hundred".
