I hate to tell you this but not only do you need counseling but I think inpatient treatment would be the best option for you right now. You're not going to be able to handle this problem on your own and you certainly can't live on 700 calories a day.
Have an open and honest discussion with your mom or other trusted adult about your eating disorder. They will know what to do next. The two sources below may be of some help. Good luck.
Get over it.
It's all in your mind, just stop doing it.
The only person that can help you is you...and that's only if you are willing to go for counseling or treatment. The counselors you will talk to, many of them have been in your shoes.
In many cases, I'd say just start eating more, but you have suffered abuse growing up. That's a whole nother story.
first of all you arn't fat. and you need to love yourself. if you don't eat three healthy meals a day, you will gain weight. when you only eat 700 calories a day, your body thinks its starving, so your metabolism will slow down. my friend gained like 20 pounds because she never ate and she messed up her metabolism once she started to eat again. just eat small, healthy meals. and don't count calories, look at the percent of fat in the food. if you dont want to gain weight, stay away from fatty foods. eat pasta or lots of carbs because they are fat free and give you energy.
