you need to see a doctor. loss of apetite can be a symptom of many serious things. your period is very likely affected by your starvation.

It sounds like an eating disorder. You really should talk to your doctor. You don't state what your weight was before you lost the 10 lbs., but if you were already underweight, that could be the reason you stopped having a period. Get help. When you get back to a normal weight, your period should come back.

I would see a doctor. Your eating habits are not healthy, and unless you are very short (as in less than 5 feet tall), your weight is not healthy either. Losing 10 lbs in 2 weeks is dangerous and can lead to health problems such as infertility, osteoporosis, heart attack, and stroke, among others.
Your period may very well stop because of your poor health habits, but that shouldn't be the highest of your worries. If you want to get better, see a doctor SOON.

Go to a doctor. These sound like symptoms for something else that you should get a professionals advice on.

Yes if you are too skinny or too fat you will either get a heavy flow or none at all
