Are these signs of anorexia?

Question

I'm worried about my sister... She's very thin to begin with but is constantly worried about her weight. If you tell her she looks great, she says she needs to lose a few pounds. She barely eats. I've asked her what she eats and she says that some days she just has a bagel and then some ice cream for dessert. Or some days just a "big" dinner. I don't believe it, I think it's more than just on some days. She doesn't exercise but I've seen her weigh herself a lot. I've asked her how much she weighs, but she just laughs it off and won't say a number. She looks to be getting thinner each week. Is she anorexic? What can I do to help her?

Answer 1

well tell her parents or your parents whichever. and tell them to take her to a doctor. he will make sure all the signs are right. but my ex best friend had the same signs. i would ask her what she ate over the weekend and she'd say a bagel. and thats over 2 days! and the doctor confirmed that she was anorexic. so tell a professional.

Answer 2

It sounds like she may be anorexic you should talk to your parents and let them know so they can  try to get her some help.
