anorexic? Is it cosidered anorexic if you dont eat all day, drink nothing but water, and then eat a little bit of dinner?
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
eating less than 1200 calories per day is considered anorexia.
like the person below me said, it also depends on if you're trying to loose weight and obsessive over it or if its just a habbit. ]
if you are doing it in hopes of losing lots of weight, then yes it is considered being slightly anorexic. if you do it without thinking because you dont have time to eat or you are busy doing other things, then no it is not. ]
it is considered anorexic if you continue to do that and do it on purpose. sure, there have been many times when i've been sick or not feeling well and i just don't eat. but if you don't eat for the purpose of losing weight (and take it so far as to not eat anything all day or whatever) then yes, that would be considered having anorexic tendencies. ]
Hi, thanks for your question.
It all depends on why you don't eat. Many people are anorexic because they feel that they can't control things in their life, and that eating is the only thing they can control. Another reason is because of low self-esteem.
Either way, it has something to do with losing weight, either because of control, self-esteem, or other issues.
Of course, other things could cause you to not eat much. I don't know if you were refering to yourself, but if this was another person, was she sick? Upset? When people are like this, they lose their appetites. Look into it, but don't worry too much unless it keeps up for longer than a few days without the person looking sick.
If you suspect that you or a friend has an eating disorder, this is a good website for more information:

in a way, yes it is. this is because you arent consuming food throughout the day. anorexia is a mental disease though, so technically you are not truly anorexic unless you have the mentality. hope i helped<3 ]
yes and no. It can include that or buliemia. But it is some kind of disease. Very addictive and hard to overcome it if you ever do do that. ]
