Ok I dont do any of these things, nor am I consedering them. I just want to know.

~If you strave yourself, when you start eating healthy the gain the weight back
~If you starve yourself you gain weight quicker than before
~Anorexic people gain weight faster than normal
~If you have too less body fat you could die
~If you are underweight by a certain amount, you are anorexic.

Any answers?

 Anorexia is not 'being underweight'. It is an illness.


So technecally then you wouldn't have to be underweight to be anorexic?


No, you don't have be underweight to be anorexic.  But I believe that you have to be a certain amount underweight to be medically diagnosed anorexic.  But most people are anorexic long before they reach that weight.

Well when an anorexic first starts starving themself, they're not necessarily underweight.
And bulimics might never be underweight.

In most cases this is true.
But there are some who have ruined their body so bad they struggle to gain again

~If you starve yourself you gain weight quicker than before
Generally true because your metabolism slows down and what ever food you DO give your body it takes ALL the fats and nutrients from it because your bidy dosnt know when it will get its food again.

~Anorexic people gain weight faster than normal
^^ see above 2

~If you have too less body fat you could die
Yes
Anorexia does kill

~If you are underweight by a certain amount, you are anorexic.
No.
Some people are naturally underweight but they still eat normally.
Also they could be underweight for other reasons appart from an eating disorder

if you starve yourself then eat then starve yourself again, you gain weight because your body strores the food straight away because it doesnt know when it will be fed again?
