I know personally, when I get to loosing & even get to that bottom point.....there is something inside that says....."just a little bit more"

Horses & low weight are a dangerous combination.....after I got below that safe BMI.....I almost collapsed while riding.....& another time I actually passed out in the field surrounded by the horses....I came to with their noses sniffing at me.....it actually scared my horses when my anorexia got too bad.

I am glad your MD is monitoring your weight.....it's always good to have someone who is holding us accountable to staying within that healthy weight & it's hard when we try to make ourselves accountable to ourselves because we can always talk ourselves out of that accountability with the "just a little more won't hurt".

Be safe.......when anemia does hit....being in the medical hospital & having to have IV nutrition through a PICC line or a Central line or even a feeding tube.....isn't glamourous....it's actually dangerous. I had a PICC line get infected.....& I had the surgical procedure for a central line nick my lung & that caused a whole set of other serious problems.
I think I will be ok. I take a over 55 multi vitamin with extra iron. I also take extra potassium. Magnisium flax oil. Fish oil. Cq10. Vitamin D3 and k2. I force at least half a atkins protein drink in the morning with my vitamins. I dont think I will get animia.
