Am I anorexic? Read more.?!


Question: Am I anorexic? Read more.?
I am 13 and weigh 85 pounds at 5'4". Two years ago I weighed 106 pounds at 5'1". I weighed a lot more than the other girls in my 6th grade class and I jiggled in some areas. I went on an intense diet and skipped lunch and dinner whenever I could (I don't eat breakfast anyways) and I lost 27 pounds and went down to 79 pounds. I was never medically diagnosed but a lot of people said I was anorexic. Since then, I have gained 6 pounds but I am still wondering. Please tell me what you think.

Your body mass index (BMI) is 14.6. This means that you are underweight. In order for you to be at the ideal weight range you should weigh between 108 pounds (48.9 kilograms) and 145 pounds (65.7 kilograms). When you weighed 106 pounds two years ago, you were at the right weight.



Do you eat? Do you have a hard time eating? With the littlest foods do you feel like you've eaten 2 huge meals? If no to any of those questions then no you're not anorexic. If you eat everyday like you're supposed to you're normal. Just don't go on such intense diets like that especially at that age, you're still very young and your body is growing and developing so you're gonna gain weight.



u might be anorexic but its more than just losing weight. its where someone is commited to looking like a stick. they deny that they are anorexic and refuse help. anorexic people make themself throw up and dont want to eat in public and hardly eat at all. they dont want to eat anything except things low in carbs. if you think you are anorexic after reading this, talk to a doctor



i feel the same way. Although i am 15 and weight only 70 pounds.
i do not think you have a high metabolism like me so you should just eat more. Don't worry about gaining too much weight. you will be fine.
