Question about anorexia?!


Question: Question about anorexia?
I'm not anorexic- this is for a poster for my health class.

About how much weight would you lose from not eating a week? 2 weeks? How long would it take for you to die from anorexia?

Answers:

hardly any loss 1st wk
7 pounds 2nd wk
very unhappy years to death because the body resists
self worth issues and body type problems - small structures have occ difficulty large meals



it's usually 2-3 weeks for a person who is of healthy weight to start dying, the rest really depends on exatly how much the person weighs for a 70 Kg male I say that after a week, he wouldn't lose that much weight as when you stop eating completely for a few days you begin to gain weight as your body stores fat for survival. For two weeks, I would say that same 70 Kg male would've lost about 7 - 10 Kg depending on height and muscle-mass.
