like don't do it?

Find it disgusting.

Loss of menstrual periods
Lack of energy and weakness
Feeling cold all the time
Dry, yellowish skin
Constipation and abdominal pain
Restlessness and insomnia
Dizziness, fainting, and headaches
Growth of fine hair all over the body and face
Over time, anorexia causes hair loss, infertility, stunted growth, osteoporosis, heart problems, kidney failure, and death. Other effects of anorexia include tooth decay and gum damage from malnutrition and vomiting, and damage to the esophagus and larynx from acid reflux. Anorexia can also lead to depression, severe mood swings, and thoughts of suicide.

JUST DON'T DO IT.
If you're having body image problems, talk to a friend or family member immediately. It can be very effective to speak to a psychologist and try anti-depressants also.
good luck honey! remember your health is of primary importance!

It sucks! I just got out of the hospital from it. All you can think about is food and your next meal. when you do eat you feel completely guilty. I am going through the same thing as sd_sun said. In the middle of struggling with bulimia now because I have times of uncontrollable eating. It's depressing and takes over your life.
