She doesn't eat. She starts to loose weight. She starts looking more pale and sickly. She's generally unhappy.

Many things will change, including physical appearance, social life, personality, eating habits...
It starts off with low self-esteem. The main signs are obsession with appearance, going to the mirror/scale many times a day, eating alone-and of course- eating little or nothing at all, or eating a ton and visiting the bathroom afterwards.
If you are worried that she is anorexic (and she is practicing strange behavior that she hasn't done before) you should inform someone and get help ASAP even if it's a false alarm.

saying that they are sooo fat and not eating much or anything at meals never eating snacks
]
always talking about how "fat" she is. always looking skinner, only eating a little, only eating one certain food for every meal. saying how skinny you look, or how other people look, always talking about a new diet, or her body, being sad, and with drawn from her normal activities, not caring about things she used to, going to the bathroom after she eats, if she ever does eat, wearing very loose fitting clothes, when she didnt before(some girls just wear loose clothes, that does not mean they are suffering from a problem, only pay attention to this if she does any of the other things on this list)always talking about her weight, diets, how "ugly" she is, your body, other peoples bodys, obsseing after she ate "to much" at lunch or snack, or dinner, worrying that if she eats a certain thing that she will gain so much weight, only drinking something at a meal
all of these are signs of the disease, but some one can be doing these things and dont have anorexia, do not look at this list, and pick out one thing, and think some one is anorexic. you should talk to your friend before you do anything else. dont assume that she knows you support her. tell her that you are concerned and worried about her. she may say she has it under control, but that is what alot of people say. if she keeps on loosing wait, and gets angrey at you when you tell her that she needs to stop, you must bring an adult in. this is a serious disease, and if your friend has it, she needs help
