If you maintain a healthy weight? I was 13 when I was bulimic, and my weight fluctuated beetween 8 1/2 stone and 9 stone, what I did was binge then purge constantly, loosing then gaining weoght like a yo-yo, but I was never underweight. Have I stunted my growth?

it is very possible that your growth has been stunted. any extreme deprivation of nutrients can stunt your growth and cause permanent health problems. the most important thing you can do is to be healthy now and see a doctor.

Yes it can it can also cause poor bones/joints. I'm paying dearly for my chemical imbalance that my brain didn't tell me when I needed to eat; therefore by the time I was 13 I was an anorexic. I hope this helps you out.

of course it will stunt your growth. You were depriving yourself of the nutrients that you need to help you grow.

if you don't feed and water a plant properly does it grow? use a little common sense.
