You sound like you do have an eating disorder. You need to make sure that you are consuming at least 1200 calories a day as that is the amount it takes for the body to function properly. I suggest that you talk to your parents about your problem immediatly, so that they can schedule an appointment with a therapist. If you do not want to speak with your folks, I would talk to a guidence councelor at school or something.

Ok...first of all, only a doctor can diagnose you with an eating diorder... but, nonetheless, it sounds that you have a high chance of having an eating disorder... let me tell you something... I was once obsessed with being thin and then I got a reality check when I realized I looked a lot better when I had weight on my body than I looked when I was really skinny (which looks ugly if you're too skinny)... so now I eat... and guess what I look beautiful, healthy, and great... and I'm quite a normal weight and I'm quite content with myself... my boyfriend (who is also a normal weight) even said I could use a few pounds :)... but he thinks I'm beautiful no matter what... so eat.. you'll be much happier and healthier if you do eat... and hey people will still think you are beautiful even if aren't a walking stick (which is actually not very pretty)... but if you continue to have a problem with this go to your doctor.

Start by not weighing yourself daily. This is a sign of an eating disorder.
If you cannot stop doing this (ie, it is an obsession), then make an appointment to see an eating disorder specialist. Like most other addictions, an eating disorder is not simply about weight, body image, etc. It is a sign of deeper seated issues that can be recovered from.
There is hope. Good job on seeking answers at the early signs.

Go to your Doctor and tell him what your doing. How much do you weigh and what is your height ? Is it normal ? Do you feel your bones are showing? Are you eating? Why do you have these thoughts? Has someone ridiculed you or someone around you about there weight? Just go to your Doctor to be on the safe side.

you need food to live .
good food is a blessing and one of the joys of life.
so denying food is illogical.
eat drink and be merry,but do it all in moderation.

If you look as ugly as dead corpse or a skeleton then maybe you should eat and look normal and hotter.
