Would My Friend Be Considered Anorexic?
My friend has always been overweight. But her New Years resolution was to lose weight, so she went on a diet. At first, she started eating healthily, but recently I’ve noticed her eating less. Now, she skips lunch everyday, is so weak she can hardly stand up and I’ve noticed her weight dropping dramatically. I had a sleep over at her house last weekend but it was so weird. She wouldn’t eat anything and spent practically all evening exercising. Then next morning she wouldn’t eat breakfast because she “wasn’t hungry”. I thought about talking to her mom, but don’t know how to approach the subject. Does this sound like she is anorexic?

You NEED to talk to her mom NOW! Before it gets worse! She need to see a doctor that can help her! (Btw how tall is she and how much does she weigh do you think?)
The majortity of us know that we need to lose that extra weight. Just think of the health value and your attractivness. Here is something to think about, if one is 14 pounds ( One Stone) overweight, then you are carrying the same of a 14 pound bag of potatoes around with you all day and every day.
losing fat is easier than you might think. Theres nothing hard about it at all, you just need a little motivation. There is a good site i have put up for you and hope it helps you.
SO BASICALLY IF YOUR LOOKING TO LOSE WEIGHT THEN GO TO THIS WEBSITE.
Yes it does and you should talk to her mom.
Yes, it does sound like anorexia. Your cousin needs help before it’s too late.
Maybe, it depends on how much time she’s acting like this.
diet is part of a long journey and the longest journey starts with the first step. To take that first step go to this good website below.
It definitely sounds like she is going that direction. To be classed anorexic, you have to be under a certain weight which is a bit of a joke but she has the mind of one. This is usually thought of EDNOS (eating disorder, not otherwise specified) i would advise you to speak to your friend first, dont shout at her about it but tell her your suspicions and see how she reacts, reassure her she is beautiful the way she is, she may wnat to stop after getting it off her chest, if not and the problem persists, for the sake of your friend i would talk to someone.
