It's true, you can still be anorexic without being 90 lbs. I read a book about that called Faded Denim: Color Me Trapped by Melody Carlson. Maybe it would help you to read it to know that you aren't the only one out there.

You would not be classified as anorectic. The DSM-IV criteria states that you have to have lost 25% of your body weight. You also need to have lost three? consecutive periods.
You would probably be classed as Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified
