anorexia nervosa - This involves starving the body to an unhealthily low weight. Our hair can fall out. Our bones get thin. Our nails get brittle. Our periods may stop. Dark downy hair can start growing on our arms. Such a bad look. Worst of all, we feel miserable

They often keep down their weight by more than just cutting out food, they main over exercise, or take more drastic measures like taking laxatives, diet pills or water pills which would help them lose weight.
