5'9 and 110 lbs?!


Question: I know I'm underweight, and I do eat as much as possible, but the odds are one white person out of so many had to be poor and take the fall. Sometimes I really can't afford good food.

Am I close to anorexia because I really don't want to be Anorexic, and I'm not sure I fully understand the ailment (if someone could please enlighten me in the process of answering the question)

I am active, I work out and skateboard but I'd really like to know if I'm in danger of anything such as the aforementioned.

Well, as long as you're eating, it's not terrible that you're underweight. However, you're not anorexic. Anorexia is when you (a skinny person) really believe that you are too fat and so prevent yourself from eating in order to lose weight. But since you know you're not fat, and since you are not purposely starving yourself, and since you being underweight is not a mental condition, you're not anorexic, just thin.

go get checked up, the aforementioned is not healthy

Anorexia is a disorder in which people see themselves as fat regardless of reality and deliberately avoid eating. It doesn't sound like you are in that category. However, if you can afford to skateboard and use a computer, my guess is that your failure to eat is more of a choice that you are admitting.

I believe anorexia involves not wanting to eat. You are talking about starvation, or at least malnutrition. See a doctor for advice & to make sure you're not in danger if you can. Also, if you're short on money, make sure you spend it on foods that contain protein (hamburgers can be cheap) and at least a little fat. Also take a multi-vitamin if you can afford one (they make generic ones that are good) to keep you immune system strong. Good luck.

if you eat on a regular basis without puking it up you are not anorexic

anorexic people are obsessed with their weight, and losing as much as possible. Just eat and ull be ok

I came across this great product for weight loss (all nautral) and it was excellent for me (it's a detox colon cleanse). Together with a good diet and exercise I am finally happy with my body and the way I look. You should check this product at
