Anorexia
I am female and 15 years old. I am a very serious dancer and am also a little upset about my body. I know dancers are supposed to be really skinny and i am not. I weigh 119 pounds and want to be 100 or less. I want to kind of become anorexic because it will help me loose weight and i think i will be much happier. I know that becoming anorexic can be dangerous but this is for my career. Do you think that this is a really bad idea?

You want to be anorexic, eh?
You have nice hair? Chop it off. It'll fall out. It'll also turn gray.
Gray is a nice color, isn't it? No. It's the ugly gray.
You have those pretty nails, don't you? Chop them off now. They'll chop off anyways.
You have a lot of great friends, eh? Diss them. They'll be tired of hearibng how you want to loose weight and to excersize.
You love to wear short shirts and dresses? Throw them out. People will be discussted of how your bones pop out of your body.
You love to dance, don't you? I can assure you that you won't be able to anymore. People won't vote for you or like how you are because they will be discussted of how you're boney.
You have soft and silky skin? Not anymore. Your skin will be dry as the desert.
Don't be anorexic. Even if it's for your career. Excersize everyday. You don't want to be anorexic. You might think you do, but you don't want to be after you read this. You know it in your heart.

Hey there,
I understand you want to lose weight quickly but anorexia is NOT the answer.
You are essentially starving all your vital organs to the point where your body begins to feed off itself.
You're bone density lowers which makes you more susceptible to breaks and injuries essentially damaging you're dancing career anyway.
like the last answer said you are slowing down your development.
Anorexia is a serious illness and is not something you should wish upon yourself. People with anorexia battle for years.
You are basically looking for a death sentance.
There are SO many horrific consequences of starving yourself. You become malnourished weak have a lack of energy, your bones begin to protrude,your body grows excess hair just to keep itself warm your organs begin to shut down, your periods can stop and you lower your chances of being able to conceive.
Please I urge you not to do this.
Be sensible and lose weight the healthy natural way. Eat three square meals a day exercise regularly drink plenty of water and eat lots of fruit and veg. You'l be surprised how quick you lose weight and tone up.
Good luck
Much <3

No, I know it's a bad thing. Being anorexic is basically eating so little that your malnourished. This means the energy you need to I don't know dance won't be there anymore; youll be starving your muscles of the things they need as well as every part of your body. Children your age that become anorexic don't develop normally because your still growing and your body's still changing, so if you want to look like a 15 year old when your 20 that's what your setting yourself up for. Athletes that become anorexic are going to end up in the hospital real quick.
My advice is to not be so lazy; I don't blame you for not being able to see the right choice for you but I can blame you for being lazy, if you weren't maybe you would have found it on your own.
You care about your career right? Well Dont put your health at risk; lose weight the healthy way,go run, eat healthier, and workout. Being anorexic is for people that take the easy way out; people that probably wouldn't work hard enough to become great at anything (including dancing)
