i have always been skinny but i got sick a couple of months ago and lost some weight. i liked the way it made me feel people kept on giving me compliments and saying how great i looked. now i starve myself or only take in about 500 calories a day. i like the way i look but all my friends are saying i am too skinny. i am 5' at 73 lbs i think that is normal for a girl my size i am 20 years old and i think i have an Ed but i don't want to put on weight. if i put on like 3 lbs i freak out because i feel fat. when i look in the mirror i look huge but all my friends are starting to make comments about me being to skinny. most of the time when i do eat it is when i am in front of people to make them think that there is nothing wrong with me. my boyfriend is grossed out about the way my ribs stick out and how he can get his hand around my leg. i don't know what to do i don't want to put on weight and i don't want to vanish into nothing. i need help ASAP. i don't have anyone i can talk to about this.
