how many people can actually say that they have an eating disorder? who here binges eats? wo many people don't eat for days? who eats one meal a day? I'm 5'5 and i weigh about 106, does that mean i am unhealthy? or would you said that i am just right? my mom thinks i have an eating disorder my siblings think I am bilemic. i'm not.

i think whether or not you have an ed depends on what you do, not what you weigh or whatever. as long as you're eating normally and retaining food, i think you're fine.

edit: and the height - weight stuff sounds about right.

if you think you're bulimec (spel) you're probably not. A lot of poeple with that stuff don't admit it. If you're thin , you're thin, just that. but if you throw up after eating or refuse to eat period, then your bulimec/anorexic.

5'5" and 106 isn't that bad. Some people just have higher metabolisms. You are probably on the lower end of your ideal weight for your height, but it's not that big of a deal. If you feel to to be a big deal, then visit some kind of doctor.

Yeah, you probably are. I am and I'm just thankful I don't weigh 300 lbs instead.
