It takes a drastic diet to be anorexic in the first place. If a person eats 1500 calories a day the body will quickly adapt and stabilize its weight. How do I know? I've tried it!OXANDRIN said:
The anorexics I know eat around 300-800 calories a day, while still exercising like us. I had a girlfriend that was a recovering anorexic. She had a 17.5 bmi. This is only 'border-line' anorexia. I gave her a massage and she was nothing but a pile of bones. She was extremely forgetful, got dizzy when she quickly rose from a chair, and she had a blanket wrapped around her at all times to keep warm. Before recovery she had a bmi of 15. She'd faint everytime she stood. She said it was like a camera fading to black. She actually liked this! It was proof she she disappearing.
My other girlfriend was a bulimic. Shes a normal weight, as bulimics tend to be. She can't eat most food without throwing it up. Her body simply rejects all that goes in it. Its so used to throwing everything up its like an automatic gag reflex.
By the way, no one, not even an anorexic can live on crackers. Anorexics do eat. they can also binge, but the overall calories draws the conclusion. If anyone ate 2 saltine crackers a day they'd be dead in around 30-40 days for sure, if not sooner.
When I fasted for 10 days on purified water I could barely walk up a set of stairs. I had muscle spasms all over my body. It felt like someone jabbing me with a pen everywhere. I had persistent chest pain, and thoughts of suicide, which made me want to fast longer. I wanted to stop but I wouldn't let myself. I heard a voice that said "your weak if you stop." I finally stopped because I realised that if I kept going (and didn't die) then I could lose my job and be faced with a reality I didn't want to experience. That was only 10 days!
