Question Posted Monday October 23 2006, 8:10 pm

I'm really athletic, but I have recently became anorexic. The thing is I don't want it to make me weak or have trouble running and stuff. Do you think it will effect me??

Listen, we all know the obvious answer is to just say " stop being anorexic!"

unfortunately, not all of us are educated enough on this topic. I think I know a few things, as I suffer from the disorder myself.

since I know that it may be very hard for you to start eating "normally" again, I would suggest that if you are restricting at all, to make sure you take a multivitamin and when you DO eat, make sure it is something that contains protein in it. Exercise- like running- Without enough protein will cause muscles to become weak and your body will start eating away at them, leading to lack of energy and a collapse or fainting during practice sooner or later. Also, drink plenty of water - more than recommended since you arent getting enough nutrients for energy, this will help keep it up. And most of all, please consider treatment or at the very least, research what you are doing to your body and organs.

Yes sweetheart, yes, yes, yes! It will affect you...it will make you weak, it will make your bones brittle, and it will weaken muscles...becoming anorexic can even keep you from playing sports in the long run.

If you're a serious athlete then there is no need to worry about your weight and seek to remedy it this way...even if you weren't an athlete...

I've done the research and you should too, please don't go this route...

It will defiantly affect you. It can kill you for starters. You will get weak. Your teeth will rot.
your bones will become brittle. Your organs will stop working.

Please seek help before that happens.
