Anorexic...?!


Question: I'm 15 years old, 5'4", size 0 and 98lbs. My waist size is 22" and I have skinny arms and legs. I eat when I feel like it but sometimes skip meals if there's "nothing to eat" in our house. I usually have a salad when we go out to eat. Some days I just kind of "graze". I don't make myself puke. I play tennis 4-5 times a week, so I'm active. I don't think I'm anorexic, so am I normal size?

you are underweight but you're also very active.
an underweight person does not have to be anorexic/eating disordered, just like an anorexic person does not need to be underweight.
as long as you don't find yourself thinking your fat, you hate yourself and not eating even though you are literally STARVING, then i don't think you have anorexia.
if you are really concerned that you might be developing an eating disorder then talk to a parent, teacher, friend...
once again, from what you said about yourself, i don't think you have an eating disorder

really underweight dude.

you are skinny ,well really skinny but...you dont sound anorexic.

ur def. very skinny but make urself keep eating sum and ull b fine

no your not im the same size as you same but i weigh 113 and i just make it b4 under weight so you r annerexic you really got to eat

u really should eat more thats not a healthy weight so yes eat every meal

anorexic is when you dont eat at all.. so i guess your not :)
