You're taking a choice away from yourself before you even understand it. Anorexia is so stupid. -- Posted by audibleSIN at 2:41 pm on July 4, 2009 Eh, I probably can't help unless it involves hugs. Would you like a hug? Also, BMI is pretty outdated. -- Posted by sixguns at 2:44 pm on July 4, 2009 damn u all r small but my aunts size is 4ft6 and she dont way 90 even -- Posted by Pebbles123 at 2:47 pm on July 4, 2009 Quote: from Tits McGee at 10:39 pm on July 4, 2009 5 foot and 118 is anorexic? Yeah thats like 8st 6. Even 7st 12 is a healthy weight for my height (5'2) Thats not anorexic o_0 -- Posted by Anonymous at 2:47 pm on July 4, 2009 Quote: from Tits McGee at 10:39 pm on July 4, 2009 5 foot and 118 is anorexic? no it isn't but this girl is showing anorexia behaviours. -- Posted by xgirltalk at 2:49 pm on July 4, 2009 Quote: from Tits McGee at 5:39 pm on July 4, 2009 5 foot and 118 is anorexic? i'm 5'5", 125, and i sure as hell am not anorexic. lol -- Posted by Aliboo at 2:55 pm on July 4, 2009 not just the weight loss but the stress on your body is what causes people to miss their periods. if you stop eating it wont always make you lose weight but it will mess up your body systems -- Posted by silentsea92 at 8:15 pm on July 4, 2009 I used to feel the same exact way. and i still kinda do. i feel like having my period means i'm fat -- Posted by tell me again at 1:08 am on July 5, 2009 You should go to the doctors anyway. Or if it's easier, go and say that you missed your period (but can't be pregnant) etc even though you haven't. And then work yourself up to a confession about your ED -- Posted by xIsabellex at 4:58 am on July 5, 2009 She might starve, then binge. Or she suddenly started to restrict and lost heaps of weight quickly which shocked her body. This happened to me. I have been suffering for a while now, haven't had my periods in a long time. However now my bmi is in the anorexic range, and I'm dying for it to be lower and lower, until I am classified as 'emaciated' at the very least. If you ever want to talk about your ed feel free to message me. -- Posted by newmie66 at 11:41 am on July 5, 2009 Sweetie, PLEASE don't try and stop your periods. You are much better off just approaching your parents or your doctor about your eating disorder regardless. I dealt with anorexia for two years and I am now fully recovered so I'd be happy to talk to you anytime. Please don't hesitate to PM me. -- Posted by merryberrycherry at 3:21 pm on July 5, 2009 It is malnutrition that has caused her to lose her periods not her weight. I can see why you would want to lose yours too and I understand your reasons but once they are gone they have gone forever..I don't think you would want to jeopardise your chances of having children for that single reason. There are other ways..Good luck xx -- Posted by Anonymous at 6:35 am on July 6, 2009 Quote: from merryberrycherry at 11:21 pm on July 5, 2009 It is malnutrition that has caused her to lose her periods not her weight.
