I don't understand but I want to have an eating disorder?



I keep telling myslef dat I need to lose weight even though I know I mean healthy for my age. Why do I want to be anorexic?

if you are at a healthy weight, but you feel like you need to be skinnier, you probably have a distorted body image, heard of it? it means you see your self differently then you are, you might think everyone around you is perfectly fine, but you still see yourself as fat. i think most women have this problem to some extent, and it's worse with young girls, when hormones and the pressures of life are making you stressed. you should see a professional about your self image problems. anorexia is extremely serious, besides the other health risks already mentioned you can get this specific kind of osteoporosis, you bones literally start to disintegrate because of lack of nutrition, and anorexics sometimes grow hair all over their bodies, how do you think that would be for your body image?
I have that same urge!! I just like food way too much.I'm Not fat just normal but would love to be teeny tiny. I just can't force myself to not eat....or puke it back up.
anyone who wants to be anorexic has major issues................. attention seeking issues. its not a physical disease its a mental one!
If you become anorexic, your organs start to shut down because they have no fat to insulate them. You will get heart and liver failure and then you're dead! Is death a good trade-off for being skinny?

Babygirl I suggest modifying your diet, eat lots of vegetables (especially green leafy),eat things like oatmeal or oat cereal for breakfast, snack on fruit - eliminate soft drinks. Diet sodas have more sugar in them than regular one. Start cardio exercise like, running, eliptical, treadmill. Believe it or not, eating many healthy small meals during the day along with exercise will help you lose weight. Please don't starve yourself because you'll have a ton of medical problems because instead of looking good, you'll be very sick and look like you're starving. People will just look at you with pity. Think better of yourself and treat yourself right - you won't regret it.
