Well your weight is around the normal range. Ide say your getting there if you keep going like this. Eat something for breakfast even if its a piece of toast or an orange or something.

one days limited food consumption does not make u anorexic. Anorexia Nervosa is defined by intentionally dieting until one is well past the point of being underweight. If u weigh between 120-130 for ur height, you're skinny & should not lose weight. l would not panic & worry however just because u did not eat much for one day. If u intentionally did so in the hopes of reducing ur weight, then u could be classified as anorexic if u did so for a prolonged number of days.

'Anorexic' people generally like myself see nothing wrong with their actions.

It is like a second sense to them, it is a part of who we are, and sometimes we like to show a little pride in it, not worry.

I'd say you're not.

l am 5'6'' and weigh 115 lbs . This really has little to do with anything btw.

Anorexia is usually forced upon.. they starve themselves. The reason for your stomach hurting is because you waited and then ate and ate and ate. Just do not do that again if you do not want to be anorexic. If you would like to lose weight, which you really don't, exercise and eat healthy!!

No, you're not anorexic, from ur question description.

Anorexic people r very uptight about their personal image & r very self-conscious. You seem to be just normal (ish.)

Your eating habits r not good at all! Every person NEEDS to have at LEAST 3 meals a day for a heathy life style. Did u not eat anything because u do not want to gain weight? Or did u not eat anything because u did not feel hungry at all? If it is the latter, go see ur doctor & tell him/her about it. Or take matters into ur own hands & force yourself to eat, lightly, & more often.

no your not anorexic

the anorexic wieight would be around 100 to 115

Ummm you could have a virus too.

Anorexia is a mental state, not like something you ''catch''

If you are purposefully not eating or eating very little in order to reach an unrealistic weight then yes, you are anorexic.

u may be getting sick, or taking medications that surpress ur appetite.

anorexia is an eating disorder. this means that people starve themselves for control. r u really stressed lately? that could be causing u to not eat. like u dont mean too & u dont think thats the reason but it could be. thats how it starts.

cam down though. 75% of woman practice some sort of disordered eating during their life. (i mean like for a month or something) & only 10% of that 75% actually has the offical eating disorder.

an eating disorder is all about control. l would stop worrying! if this continues talk to a guidence counselor or nurse or doctor. just tell them whats going on & they will help you. but dont be like. omg doctor am l anorexic? that will just make a scene. so calm down. u will be okay. & just try to eat. u will be back to normal in no time. what ur doing is nomral. it happens to a lot of teenagers. youshould only worry if it gets out of control. & good for u for recognizing this!

ps--you cant be 'an anorexic' u r 'an anorexic person' anorexic is an adjective. anorexia is a noun.

Here is a growth chart (by CDC) http://cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhanes/growthcharts/set1clinical/cj41c022.pdf

According to this, at 14 y/o, you're fine.

The problem with going all day without any food until the end of the day is that ur blood sugar will be low--too low, & u can pass out. Not a safe thing to happen.

Furthermore, ur stomach expects something to be there--and it probably hurts because the gastric juice is digesting on practically nothing--thus the heartburn feeling u experience.

You need to speak to ur parents about this. Were u late to school a reason for not eating? Did u not have money to get lunch? Were there other reasons? Do food repulse you?

It sounds like there is more to this ''not wanting to eat all day long'' then skipping meals--and l am afraid you're so young, & u need food to grow. Your body is not fully mature until u reach the end of ur teens.

Do something about it soon.
