Hi so I have questions that I need answers to and um thought about asking them here...I have minor anorexia and have been losing weight, about a pound a week and I don't know what's wrong with me. I eat food and only skip breakfast but that's only because I don't like eating early early. Other than that I don't know why I'm losing weight. Any adivce?

Don't think you would be coming to this site if you didn't think something was wrong - suggest you need to check in with your GP to make sure its not something medical that is causing the weight loss - but at the end of the day - if you have always skipped breakfast and maintained your weight - then you must in reality either be eating less now - or doing more exercise - so do reflect on this and really check out what is actually going on rather than what your head is telling you - EDs control your thoughts around food - I know from experience I could look at my plate and tell myself it was full and a normal portion - while someone else would look at it and say its a large plate of vege and fruit - so no surprise you're losing weight.

Not what you're looking for?
