Go to the papers about the agency, take her to a funeral home, keep taking her to counselling, don't let her change the subject, change it back.
Good Luck!! xx

Ask her who told her that she had to lose more weight to be a model?
It could be that she went into some agency and they told her she needed to lose weight. If so then go to the local papers about how this agency could be literally causing girls to KILL themselves through dangerous weight loss. It's probably some anorexic bitter girl on reception that said it anyway.
It could be that she is just using the modelling as an excuse to get an eating disorder.
Get her to open up to you and be harsh to her. Tell her that you cannot be with someone who has an eating disorder and that you would help her to get help but couldn't stand by and watch your beautiful girlfriend turn into some kind of 3rd world malnourished freak and then die as it would hurt you to watch.
Stop this from happening as soon as you can, she'll do more damage to herself the longer she goes on. Get her to see a doctor if you can.
Good Luck!! xx

Losing 10 pounds in one week sounds very unhealthy. She is not getting proper nutrition and that could lead to fatigue and organ failure.
