just how sickly thin i am

i have a off skin tone
clearly visable rib cage

Answer 1

You either have a serious illness or you are anorexic...you need to be in the hospital...

Answer 2

Maybe not necessarily anorexic, but you are way too thin. Why do you only eat 1 meal a day? If it's because you don't want to gain weight, than yes, you are anorexic. If you don't eat cuz you're not hungry, it is likely some other medical problem. That is a very low bmi and it sounds like you're body is starting to suffer. Please talk to your doctor about gaining weight, whether you think you should or not. You didn't say if you're afraid to gain weight or why you don't eat much, so I can't really tell you whehter you're anorexic or not. Low body weight does not necessarily mean anorexia, but you do need to put on some weight. Good luck.

Answer 3

I dont think you are anorexix because even though you do not eat a lot. When anorexix girls look in the mirror they think they are fat even if they arent. You can still look in the mirror and see how skinny you are. You do need to eat more before it does get out of control. Having blackouts and seizures should tell you that you need to do something about your weight. Listen to your doctor.

Answer 5

Well you do need to gain weight but you are not anorexic!

Answer 6

i'm going to go with yes. just trust your doctor to do what's best for you and listen, and take all of his advise. good luck...
