Anorexia is a disease. You're not anorexic unless you are personally saying "I don't want to eat, it will make me gain weight." It doesn't sound like you are.

Anyway, you should talk to your doctor about a suitable diet.

Well yeah I mean you gotta eat three normal meals everyday...
You can't just not eat. I mean you take medicine right? And isnt that supposed to work? You'll have to talk to one of your parents about it or see if they can talk to your doctor for you.

You need to eat though, so not eating is out of the question..because you could get very sick if you dont.

Good luck --

i used to have acid reflux and it SUCKED! i had it both in my stomach and my throat. it hurt really bad, i couldnt drink pop or anything with caffiene and i couldnt hardly eat anything but like...sandwiches haha. okay well eventually itl go away like i did. i think the medicine will help you from hurting if you eat pizza. you could eventually go anorexic if you dont eat anyything for a really long time like 7 months or whatnot, just if youre going to eat something like that its good to eat bread cuz it absorbs the acid or whatever. you could have a snack like that once in a while but only have a little. be patient though, your acid reflux could go away anytime soon! i dont know about teh bowel thing though. good things come to those who wait! good luck, dear.

The pizza might not have any affect at first but im sure it would still bother you because your body is used to the same kinds of food -- The reaosn you feel so weak is because your body is limited to the foods you can have -- Its not that your anorexic, because it sounds like your eating -- Anorexcia is only if you starve yourself to lose weight

Okay this will really help you out. I read it in my South Beach diet book and this is what you do, 15 minutes before your going to eat pizza or whatever..have a glass of metamucil(or any other fiber stuff you have) and then you can eat like 15 minutes later. So the fiber will help you break down the food and you will be fine! Funny how a south beach diet is helping you out haha. So try that, and see if it works!
