As the body starves and is forced to try asnd function through malnourishment, the organs can suffer greatly. Muscles, eventually, begin to deteriorate and weaken and become thinner in anorexics over time. Thinned muscle on organ like the heart can cause many problems. Also, anorexics tend to have heart conditions, and things like low-body-temperature and low-blood-pressures. This, along with lack of food and a lot of exercise, can place great strain and stress on organs, causing damage or organ failure.

Do people with anorexia eat a lot?
No, you are describing bulimia, which in Latin means "ox-like hunger." Classic bulimic behavior involves eating huge amounts of food ("binging"), and then purging it, by one or more of the following methods: self-induced vomiting, laxatives, excessive exercising. Anorexia (which means "lack of appetite") is characterized by self-starvation. However, it is quite common for people with eating disorders to have both anorexic and bulimic symptoms. For example, someone might start out strictly anorexic, and then become totally bulimic, and then settle into a sort of limbo between the two. Binging, without purging afterwards, is known as "compulsive overeating."
Are bulimics skinny?
== Sometimes people turn bulimic because they're overweight and are having trouble with other diets. Maybe they're under a lot of stress, or maybe someone is making them feel bad about themselves. Bulimia sometimes goes on for years and is a very serious condition. By not keeping food down, the bulimic person is starving their body of nutrients. In extreme situations the bodys organs can start to shut down. In that case, the bulimic person most likely has to be hospitalized immediately or slowly starve to death. Not necessarily - even if you are bulimic usually you binge and purge but you still eat and take in the calories of what your eating regardless if you purge. Bulimia is serious and does not always just involve being bulimic on its own they are also over obsessed with exercise and are also most time anorexic as well. It varies from individual to individual.
