am i anorexic?

about 2 months ago i decided to take more serious measures to lose weight
in the past 2 monjths ive lost 55 lbs.
im still feel like im obese.
i wasnt eating anything except slim fast and boullion cubes, and ocaisionally like 2wice a week i would eat a sandwich from subway. since i work there.
then after awhile i gave up the bread . i would only eat salads with fat free dressing and hot sauce. no meat or cheese, just spinach and banana peppers. i liked losing weight so much but people come up to me and ask me how i am losing so much weight.
i started to feel like i ate too much when id go to the mall and id get a piece of pizza so id make myself throw it up.
recently its been harder to avoid food but im trying to stay strong.
i went 72 hours without eating anything except ice and diet soda.
there are somtime when i just tell myself not to eat for long periods of time. now one cracker is too much. sometimes i feel light headed, and i sleep alot .am i anorexic?

Answers:
Yes sweet pea. You are exhibiting a lot of classic symptoms of anorexia. You need to go to a psychiastrist about it, and also get a physical because losing that much weight that fast can be terrible for your body. Bulimia is also in there, but eating disorders can and do kill. Im sure you are a beautiful person, inside and out. Get yourself well, I wish you all the best, hope, help, happiness, and health.

yeah. yeah, it definitely sounds like you're anorexic. you should get some help with this - it's not good for your body to gain or lose that much weight that quickly.
Your body is starting to rebel against your diet. You can't live on Slim Fast and boullion cubes forever. You need a certain amount of nutrients to stay healthy and from what you've said you're not getting enough of them. I don't know if you're anorexic yet but you're certainly not healthy. If you're trying to lose weight, think of it as not going on a diet (which implies going off of said diet and gaining the weight back) but going on a healthy eating plan for life.
It's hard to say whether you're clinically anorexic without more information. However, you definitely have a eating disorder problem if you did not eat for THREE DAYS in an attempt to lose weight.

That is not healthy for anyone. Please eat at least once a day, and real food. Hopefully more times a day, just eat until you don't feel hungry any more.I'm sure you know more about dieting than I do and I doubt any plan advocates doing what you're doing. So please, find something to eat right now, start small so you don't feel so guilty and don't throw up immediately. And talk to someone you know about it so they can help you if you begin to try to avoid food again.

Seriously. Eat. People die from the kind of eating regimen you're putting yourself through.
I would say that you have an eating disorder - definately an unhealthy way of nourishing yourself. Getting a caring professional to help you would be a good place to start. Self esteem issues are prevalent with this disorder. Would you expect another human being on the face of this earth to endure what you put yourself through?
it sounds like you well on your way to it. i would suggest yhat you you need to talk to a food disorder speacialist or get to your doctor.
Big yes. However if you binge and throw up you are bulimic. See your doctor 'cos it won't go away on it's own. Your doctor may put you on anti depressants which in some cases can help ease an eating disorder. It's nothing to be ashamed of.
My step daughter almost died eating like you are. She was hospitalized and has to see a doctor several times a week and her mother has to basically force her to eat. Not junk food but just healthy food enough so her body can go on day to day. I strongly suggest you get help.
I'm so sorry that you are in so much pain, and experiencing so much body dissatisfaction. It certainly sounds as though you have an eating disorder, as you ar restricting your caloric intake, purging and losing weight. If YOU think something is wrong, trust your instincts and find someone to speak with. I highly recommend finding some support in your area (a therapist, group, etc) and talking about what is making you so unhappy. Below is a link for a therapist search. Good luck. You shouldn't have to feel so badly.

Yes you are, and if you make yourself throw up, your bulemic too. I'd advise you to get help quickly. You should go to a hospital They'll take care of you from there.
