I suppose you mean the literal meaning of anorexia? Today's culture defines anorexia as a disease in which someone deliberately starves themselves. The actual meaning of anorexia though is "without appetite."

Anorexia, or anorexia nervosa, is an eating disorder which causes certain people to have a great fear of gaining weight. This fear usually manifests in the teen years. Usually it starts with dieting.

A person that suffers from anorexia feel as though there body's shape is too large and must continue to diet until their body matches what the mind sees, which never happens. If you know of someone that might be suffering from this affliction, seek help right way!
