First and foremost, she should go have a check up with her doctor to make sure she doesn't have any health issues.
Anorexics tend to have problems with their hearts- something she needs to have checked. This is because, when you starve your body, it lives off of your body fat. When body fat is gone, it feeds off of your muscles in a desperate attempt to survive. Your heart is a muscle. Anorexia and bulimia can lead to heart failure. Scary, I know, but true. More the reason for her to visit her doctor and to eat a healthy balanced diet.
I would venture to say that her boobs will grow bigger once her body starts packing meat back on. Fat and muscle, in other words.
Her period has likely stopped because of lack of nutrients in her body. It may well come back once she starts to replenish these nutrients by eating that healthy balanced diet EVERY DAY.
I will say it again, she needs to have a check up with her doctor to make sure that her body isn't damaged internally.
I hope she realizes how good of a friend she has in you.

Anorexia isn't the way to go. You will lose weight in time, but you'll gain all of the weight you lost plus some, in a shorter time than it took to actually shed the pounds. If she lost weight, her breasts probably have thinned down. Naturally, once she begins to eat normally and healthfully again she will regain some body fat, which will increase the size of her bust back to it's prior measurement.
As for her period, it will more than likely come back. It usually does, but there are those rare cases when it doesn't. This is called Amenorrhoea. Should that occur, she is in a world of trouble. Anorexia can jeopardize your ability to conceive a baby. You don't want to fool around with eating disorders. It's like playing with fire. She can be satisfied with the weight she's lost and her extra attention from men, but compared to how many men would potentially leave her later on in life when they find out she is unable to birth a baby.. is just not worth. She is in way over her head. She needs to correct this problem immediately with some serious help.
Now it sounds like you're a good friend. Why not encourage her to go about weight loss the safe and proper fashion? Perhaps you can even do this diet with her. A little toning up never hurt anybody, and sometimes some people need the extra motivation. It could even be fun.

Hey,
Aww, I'm sorry to hear that.
I've checked my records, and yes, it is possible to stop getting your period when you dramatically lose weight.
And yes, your boobs are usually small when you're super skinny. When you gain weight, you'll get boobs again lol.
Hope I helped
