DarkOne (that seems a bit odd to say, maybe it's just me but do you have anything else you wish to be called by?), i'd often feel insecure and possibly on the edge of an eating disorder, however fortunately for you you're open to peoples compliments and you also have the option of seeing a doctor or counselor. It's good you'll be using the option, at the very least to have a professional view on the subject.

MMM, I love you too...sort of..it's just, the statement was so Tenchu.

Long time no see, Kakashi.

Sorry for the off-topic.

this is like the librarian at my school when she provides food in the library for people to eat (we're not supposed to eat in the library by her rules), so....

SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM

okay, something in japanese just to prove I'm smart and still fit in...ohio jk, hello to you too. How are you? Physically? Mentally? Spiritually? Emotionally? Financially? Legally?...And...how do you feel about your weight?

Isn't it romantic? the two of us, alone on an empty forum while the moon shines gently down upon us trough the clouds as we lay in an undisturbed field of snow?

Sweetheart, what ever gave you the impression I wanted to see you wearing a bikini? Wearing anything?

I'd personally recommend that these types of threads be closed.
OP is fishing for attention at the least, because you can just google "eating disorder" or "anorexia" or whatever or go to webmd and find a solution. (there's only one solution anyway... eat more food)

I believe people do this kind of thing for attention. Why else would you starve yourself or throw up every meal (yes yes I know the difference btwn anorexia and bulimia) unless you were doing it to get attention.. and if you make the case that it's because the person with the "disorder" has a need to make themselves look better, then that would also fall under the category of attention-monger.

If the one solution was to eat more food, then eating disorders (along with "solving" them) are the leading cause of obesity in America.

[IamKira]

what?? i don't understand...

It's pretty simple though.. calories are a measure of potential chemical energy. During a 24 hour interval, you use energy to keep your heart beating, move your legs, think etc. With anorexic people, their caloric intake does not meet or exceed their use of energy in a day. The only possible solution would be for the person to raise the amount of energy they intake in a day (preferably with a lot of protein to regain muscle tissue.. which is why i recommended meat in a post) and then balance it out after they've gained a healthy bit of tissues. How does that lead to obesity.. i'm confused.

[darksyndrem]

Ahh I thought that might turn out really confusing. What I was trying to say is, if people tried to fix eating disorders with simply eating more food, they would end up, not healthy, but fat. The fact is, it takes more than just eating *more* food. It takes eating *healthy* food. And not necessarily more, depending on the eating disorder.

It is a forum where information is shared. The fact that the information the OP got was enough to make her make an appointment with her doctor makes this thread alone more valuable than most of the other threads here put together.

Let's give her the benefit of the doubt and show a little compassion.

[IamKira]

ahh, gotya dark... yeah, it should be healthy food.. i was just saying that anorexic people need to eat a good amount until they are back to a healthy weight and then level out food intake..

and MMM, my point is that the op will see the attention she / he is getting from this thread... so many people worried about him / her and willing to offer advise that she/ he is only going to revert further into their eating disorder which renders this help thread inherently useless.
