Yup, my one of my best friends had an eating disorder when she was like 13.
She didn't eat much, and I think she got skinny. Like, maybe not like extreme anorexia, but she did lose some weight.

[emceej]

i never knew someone that has an eating disorder.
i know someone who's really skinny but im not sure if she has an eating disorder.

your poll doesn't work out for those who voted no in the first part. They are forced to vote in the second part...

but yes...I do know someone. She was diagnosed with a eating disorder but it wasn't bulimia or anorexia.

[addickshun]

i'm one of the example :x
i was on the edge of becoming an anorexic
it all started when i was 13.

[Antz]

i know someone who is being bulemic at the moment but she isn't really doing that based on her looks, i think. she's just kinda depressed.
um age.. i guess 16?

i think i know someone others who have/had an eating disorder, but i can't think of anymore.

[loveof]

i was friend with this girl who had an eating disorder in grade 5..
i met her in junior high.. her story was really sad.
it wasn't about trying to be skinny because everyone else is or w/e it was more deep than that.
she told me about her parents and how they were alcoholics and didn't care about her.
so she starved herself and turned really skinny in order to get their attention and concern.
she's much better now since she doesn't live with her parents.

[wow! sunshinable^^]

ohmygosh; i had a friend that was anorexic

LOL!! How ironic, skinny girl being a good cook?

You know what Emeril says "Never trust a skinny cook"!

Anyway, most anorexic girls deny that they're anorexic and try to hide it. They may eat in front of others, but they eat nothing or low-calorie, non-fattening foods when alone.

Yeah, that's true. I have a friend who was on a verge of being skinny, she was petite, and thought she was fat, so wanted to lose weight. But that's over ^^; It was last year.. so probably 13/14 years old?

exactly. you're going to end up with 100% of your respondents reporting "yes" because there isn't an option for voting "NO". your results are going to be severely skewed.

i would vote 'no' if there was an option to do so.

[wexbelongxtogether]

I voted yes cuz I was anorexic and bulemic at one point.
I caught myself tho with the help of others before it got out of hand.
But yeah i was 12 or 13.

i think thats for bulimics. then when there alone they throw everything up.. but for anorexics they dont eat at all. they make up an exucse to not eat in front of others. we're learning about eating disorders in health LOL. i know alot of REALLY skinny people but i dont think there anorexic or anything like that. and someone already mentioned this, but in your poll your forced to choose an age even if you say no to the first question o_o.

[xstacyy]

I was anorexic and bulimic last year.
Actually, it's more like.
I'm still fighting it this year.
But I'm way better

[RainFan4ever]

Yes, you should do it both on anorexic and bulimic my younger sis was anorexic when she was around 14 o4 15, people kept on calling her fat and comparing her to me all the time. She was not fat she was just hitting her puberty/adolescene and has baby fat she only weight 115 at the time when I only weight around 95lbs. Now she is looking great and healthy she is way pretty than I am and very curvy. And I am very happy for her. I kept on pushing her not to starve her self and told her story about people with eating disorder and kept on support her and I told her I love her no matter what. We will work together, so every weekends I took to park and excercise and take her shopping. And now she excercise although I don't go with her but I support her by reminding her she is doing wonderful in healthy and happy way.

People think I am anorexic because I am so skinny. I don't care as long as I know I am not and my family know I am not. I eat then go to sleep right away there is no time I have time to throw up. I want to gain weight, but my metabolism is so high. My best friend and I are so alike we so skinny and fill with lots of energy. We eat constantly and get hungry within 1 or 2 hours.

[beckii]

i had a friend who was bulimic...we all wondered how she lost weight so fast, when really she was puking up everything she ate...........

[bitter SOOweet]

yes
a bulimic girl at the age of 17 (or 16) -- i'm not positive
i wasn't friends with her but i knew her and of her.

and personally i think she was anorexic on top of that 'cause she was so skinny that u could like see her rib bones yet she didn't consider herself extremely thin. x.x

[night.star]

I don't know anyone with eating disorder, or maybe it just I can't remember

[Atmosphere.]

11-15?!?!?! HOLY!!!!!!! THEY HAD THE MOST VOTES! THAT'S CRAZY! They don't need to worry about their fatness at that age!!!!!!!!!!
I voted for the 16 one. And yes, I have friends who have eating disorder because they feel conscious with their body and they are sensitive people.
