A 13-year-old girl battling anorexia has told how she survived on just 250 calories a day after feeling pressure 'to be the prettiest and thinnest' girl at secondary school. Aliya Riaz began losing weight at a dramatic rate after suffering years of bullying in junior school when she was at her heaviest. She was diagnosed with the disorder a year ago and has spent five of the past 12 months in hospitals and treatment centres.
