How much food do anorexic people eat every day?

Answer 1

It varies in each individual that is Anorexic. There are few calories and Anorexics prefer to stick with very small portions of lettuce, a few vegetable or fruits, but even that becomes distasteful for them given time. They are literally starving themselves to death. If they don't receive counseling and help with their eating habits they will eventually die because their organs start to shut-down. Heart attacks are also high with chronic Anorexics.

Answer:It just depends on the severity of the disorder. Some less severe cases will be fine with around 800 a day, as long as they are losing weight. Usually the range is between 0-500. But until the individual receives counseling and help, or as long as nobody knows, they will continue to restrict their calories more and more. I've heard of people setting 400 calories a day as their goal...and they really try their hardest to NOT meet that goal. that goal is really just for "only in very worst circumstances". the least amount of calories the better. and sometimes they will go days without consuming any calories whatsoever.

Answer 2

Answer. Anorexics eat the bare minimunm they can. One diet says ' eat 1 slice of buttered bread and drink pints of water' after four days of this diet you will be able to see your ribs. Some anorexics dont eat. They live on liquids like water and drink low fat drinks and sometimes are known to drink orange juice from cotton buds. Hope this helps =D (i know the diet of bread and water coz i did that diet and im still recovering =[)

Answer 3

It depends on the individual. Some eat next to nothing (300 calories or less) each day, while others just sharply reduce their amounts. For example, the average person needs between 1,500 and 2,000 calories a day. Anorexics would eat less than that. It could be a little less, like 1,200 calories a day, to significantly less like 800 to 600 calories a day.

I assume you want a real answer:It really just depends. Honestly 800 calories is pushing it for most anorexic people. Usually they try to keep it between 0-500 calories. It depends on the severity. Less severe eating disorders would be ok with up to 800 give or take a few...but the more severe it gets, the more the calories are restricted. I have heard of people only allowing themselves 400 calories a day as their calorie goal, and try really hard not to meet that goal. On any given day they could decide that they will let themselves eat just a few more calories, and then there are days where they will take in 0 calories. (mostly after the days that they consume more, sometimes because they're mad, and it is a punishment/ or they are trying to "fix" the "damage" they believe they have done to their bodies.

Answer 5

Nothing, or almost nothing. An anorexic person's diet may consist of as little as 500 calories every three or days. Anorexia is a disease that causes the person too fat or that they eat too much. Anorexia often has some underlying cause.

about 1/2 a meal a day

Answer 7
