Would you rather look good for a little while, or wear a size ten and be able to take advantage of a full lifetime of opportunities? I'm 20 years old, and also suffered from anorexia when I was 15, before it became as publicized as it is now. When I was admitted into the hospital, the doctor's said my heart was 2 days away from stopping, and my blood pressure was so low I should be on the ground convulsing. I weighed 70lbs. I didn't realize until after I was out of the hospital 2 1/2wks later, how bad i looked before when I saw a picture of myself. It truly is a psycological problem, things that happened in my life that i didn't deal with at the time brought me to this. I'm so blessed to still be alive, and i couldn't imagine missing out on my life because of this disease. I don't believe these are "tips" on how to be anorexic, I believe there more of warning signs, because all of the things listed above, I was doing about 99% of those. I reach out to anyone that suffers from this, it is a life long battle. Although I've been lucky enough not to relapse, there's still days I look in the mirror and think "yeah you could lose a few lbs" I weigh 100lbs, and i know if anything i should gain a few lbs, but there's always gonna be that idea in the back of my mind that i could improve my body.
Anorexic people do not eat anything. They starve themselves due to mental conditions.
Anorexic "diets" are very unhealthy and WikiAnswers does not encourage people to go on such a "diet".
of course they eat something to keep them going. i mean even if its only half an apple a day or something, so they basicly eat tiny tiny portions.
Healthy diet & exercise
If your anorexic you should build up your food intake gradually. if your wondering how to be anorexic the easiest diet that's filling is bread(buttered) and water(pints) x
Men don't diet as often as women do, but it's possible.
I think that celebrities become anorexic, because when they were children, or teens, their hero or heroins were anorexic, and their anorexic now. But maybe it is because they don't think they are skinny enough (which of course every celeb is), and try to go on a regular diet, but end up going anorexic. And regular girls see them doing it, so they go anorexic, and it just passes down generation to generation, and it gets worse and worse each century.
Anorexics can eat or drink almost anything, but can also become ill.
Their are no proven statements stating that Lauren Conrad is anorexic. She doesn't look anorexic either, she's skinny yes but that can be achieved with a healthy diet and exercise which her show "the hills" shows she does.
Being anorexic is a serious disorder. Even if you diet frequently, that does not mean you are anorexic. If you stop eating or become unhealthily obsessed with your figure and do become underweight, then seeking help would be your wisest option.
you ethier go on a crash course diet.. or make yourself sick all the time. i do not recommend it.
The South Beach Diet seems to be pretty safe (and popular).
You can eat a lot of foods that contain a lot of calories to add a bit more weight and you can also try to get out of your diet if you are in one and it would be best to see a doctor or someone who knows a lot about anorexic people.
it is not a diet- it is a disorder. a disorder where someone chooses to simply eat very little. some anorexic sufferers do not eat for a few days at a time. People with anorexia eat an average of 800 calories per day, which is 400 below the absolute minimum of 1200. Many eat even less than that.
No, being anorexic is not a diet it's an illness. It's when you stop eating because you believe your fat. I hope this answers your question.
