(This regarding an eating disorder) Also for those who have been hospitalised for an eating disorder, what was your BMI at the time? I know there are other factors which are taken in to consideration, I just wanted to know if there was a general BMI value..

He hasn't mentioned anything about hospitalisation but I guess I was wondering more for interest.. dramaqueenxoxo Posted at 1:24 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 Quote: from PwittyBbe at 2:57 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 its usually 17.5 but anything under is dangerous lol but when u get to 15 (bmi) then they have to tube feed you no matter what I was told this aswell...
