I just found out today that people can be called anorexic even if they dont have an eating disorder.

because I have the eating disorder I have to keep track of what I eat and make sure I am above a certain weight and above a certain amount of calories a day. I have been sticking to my treatment plans and saw the doctor today. I was weighted in. he wouldnt tell me my weight but told me I was below by target therefore labeled anorexic even though Im following my plans. I couldnt understand why he was calling me anorexic today when I havent been rejecting food, havent purposely keeping myself underweight all that kind of stuff I used to do a few years ago. I was afraid he was going to put me back in the treatment center downstate again.

he told me to relax. the word anorexic doesnt always mean the eating disorder. its a medical term for anyone who is under a certain percentage of the weight they should be as their physicans directed ideal weight standards.

some terms that might help -

obese is being overweight/above your doctors ideal weight system
morbidly obese is being a lot over weight/above your doctors ideal weight system.
average is being right on target with your doctors ideal weight system
anorexic is being underweight of your doctors ideal weight system.

the eating disorder anorexic has other symptoms too besides being underweight like being focused on thinking you are too fat, obsessed with not eating lacking an appetite. obsessed with needing to know how much you weigh every day especially before and after meals. theres other things too.

your post says you are underweight. thats why they are calling you anorexic. talk to your doctor they can tell you more about why they are calling you anorexic and what to do about it.
