Of course my doctors do, but they can't make me eat. Yet.
In all honesty, doctors never can make you eat.....if they could there wouldn't be so many deaths due to anorexia.

You are the only one who can figure out the weight you can be comfortable with & the healthy food you are willing to control your eating to maintain. It takes more control to eat healthy & to maintain a healthy weight without getting too thin or gaining too much.

When you realize that it takes more control to maintain that healthy point, more than the control not to eat at all until the fainting point, they you will be able to look good in your cloths & otherwise & be healthy also.

I can honestly say from my own experience that there isn't anything beautiful about my body when it's so thin it looks like a walking skeleton. When you can't see that, then the only thing you can go by is having a healthy weight.....healthy doesn't mean overweight either. There is a large range within healthy to be able to find the right point that is acceptable & healthy for yourself.
