While weight is a big factor, more impotant in diagnosing an eating disorder like anorexia is weight in terms of BMI (Body Mass Index) and percentage muscle and percentage body fat. A diagnosis for anorexia also requires other symptoms or signs, such as low blood pressure, low heart rate, organ degeneration, hair loss, and a disordered mental state.
