It is withdrawl. I had to stop drinking at times and the body goes through some funny changes. My advice is to tell her to get active, start working out and drink water like crazy.

Yes, it's possible. Stress can cause weight loss in some people and in others it causes them to gain. Does she look unhealthy? Keep an eye on her.

talk to her about eating healthy and tell her you like the way she looks.  tell her you do not want her to be thinner.  she has a control issue that is showing through her bulimia.  She needs to substitute her control in throwing up to controlling what she eats and then keep her from being alone after she eats for an hour so she can not throw it up.  she will have a hard time at first but she can do it with support. talk to her about it.  throwing up will ruin her teeth and throw off her electrolytes and make her have cramping and headaches...most women look sickly and too thin from this because they lose color in their face. I experienced this when I was a girl. many women do because the thick women are not as attractive to men. it is our sick society.  She needs to get her mind on something to distract her from this obsession to get thinner...something that makes her feel good about herself from the inside and less focus on her feelings of perfecting the outside. self acceptance is a beautiful thing and people who love and accept themselves are more attractive and more fun to be around.  I hope she can find it in herself.

You can't force her to gain weight. All you can do is encourage her to eat right and excercise and be happy with who she is on the inside.

You can decide not to be affected by her ruined moods.  You can't control her lack of awareness about what's bothering her, but you being in a good mood may lift her off from her blah periods.  You can only do so much for her, but being her positive bf will really do wonders for her.  Good luck!  :)

changes in eating and sleeping habits (eating and sleeping too much or too little) \nsignificant weight gain or loss \nmissed school, poor school performance and/or a sudden decline in grades \nwithdrawal from friends and family \nno longer enjoying activities that were once pleasurable \nindecision, lack of concentration, or forgetfulness \nfeelings of worthlessness or guilt \noverreaction to criticism, irritability \nfeeling that nothing is worth the effort \nfrequent health complaints when no physical ailment exists \nanger, rage, anxiety \nlack of enthusiasm and motivation \ndrug/alcohol abuse, thoughts of death or suicide \nSymptoms such as insomnia, panic attacks, delusions or hallucinations can indicate extreme depression, \nThe first problem is to distinguish between a more serious depression and "normal," typical adolescent moodiness, caused by hormonal changes and brain growth spurts. For example, it is common for girls to become moody, edgy, and anxious just before and during menstruation, and maybe even longer, if she suffers from hormonal problems. If grouchy behavior seems to have a pattern or cycle, it is likely the symptoms are tied to hormonal changes, and are not indicative of clinical depression. In contrast, one hallmark of clinical depression is the tendency to become isolated—to stop talking to family, and to stop spending time with friends—and this kind of moodiness does not seem to lift after a couple of weeks. \n\nRushing to a therapist when symptoms are actually within the range of normal can have several negative effects:\n\nthe child feels like there must be something wrong with himself or herself, which can tip a fragile balance toward lowered self-esteem \nthere may be a long-lasting stigma attached to a diagnosis \nmedications may be prescribed unnecessarily, and without careful monitoring \nIf you suspect depression:\n\nRespond with love, kindness, and support. \nRepeatedly let your child know that you are there, whenever she or he needs you \nBe gentle but persistent if your adolescent shuts you out (depressed teenagers do not want to feel patronized or crowded). Do not ask a lot of questions, but make known your concern and your willingness to listen. \nDo not criticize or pass judgment once the adolescent begins to talk (the important thing is that he or she is talking and communicating feelings). \nEncourage activity and praise efforts to socialize and be active. \nSeek help from a doctor or mental health professional if the adolescent's depressed feeling doesn't pass with time. Be prepared to list behaviors, note how long and how often they have been occurring, and how severe they seem. \nDo not wait and hope that symptoms will go away on their own. When depression is severe—if adolescents are thinking about hurting themselves or about suicide—seek professional help as soon as possible. \nParents of depressed adolescents may themselves need support. Seek out groups of parents who have experience with teen depression. \nThe single most important thing a parent can do to break down the social isolation that is at the heart of adolescent problems is to LISTEN:\n\nlisten when your children talk \nlisten to their music \nspend more time with them and be involved in their activities \ntake them to movies and concerts, and discuss them afterward \nknow their friends, and listen to them as well \ndo not lecture or offer unsolicited advice or ultimatums \ndo not try to talk them out of their feelings or solve their problems, just acknowledge the pain and sadness they are feeling \ndo not compare your teen’s feelings, reactions or experiences to your own or to someone else’s \nA parent can—and should—express their concerns directly. It is not easy to connect with teens in this way, and parents may need professional guidance to assist them. Yes, it is likely that the teenager will get angry and will say harsh things ("It's none of your business!" "G

You need to have a serious chat about your concerns.  Do NOT allow her to make it a joke ("I'm so fat!").\n\nIf you notice her skipping meals, exercising excessively or throwing up when she does eat, tell a doctor or counselor right away.\n\nEating disorders are serious and should be cared for by a professional.\n\nBest of Luck!

Yes, she will lose weight. And muscle tissue and brain functionality,strength and endurance. She is dangerously below what she needs in a day (usually 1200-1600 calories are recommended for those who are extremely overweight). Sounds like she may need to seek counseling because if she sees something different than what really exists when she looks in the mirror, then her mind's eye needs to be reprogrammed. These are often beginning signs of anorexia and bulimia. Encourage her to talk to a counselor. She is in danger of harming herself by doing these things. This is not the time to keep your thoughts to yourself. If necessary, ask for help from a trusted adult to intervene. She may get mad at you, but it's worth it to save her life. Be encouraged.

First and foremost realize that she doesn't have an eating disorder if what your saying is true. What she has is self esteem issues because she is a little bit overweight. Eating salt will only dehydrate you and only SOMETIMES limiting your caloric intake will actually make you gain weight because your body will go into "starvation mode" and store all food that you take in as fat. Your friend however seems to have the mind set-up of someone that could really develop an eating disorder. Tell her she's pretty and that if she really wants to lose weight plan it as a long term goal for HERSELF not so she can be popular, have a boyfriend etc. and most importantly tell her to talk to her parents or a school nurse or doctor to help her plan her diet and exercise regimen.

Get a second opinion. She could have a thyroid function problem. So seek more medical advice. There has to be a reason.

Don't over-analyze this. If she's normally in a good mood, she has a right to have a day when she's not feeling so hot. Maybe it has nothing to do with you. Give her some space and allow her to be moody. If she's not being nasty to you, then maybe it isn't about you at all. Just say, "Honey, I hope you're okay. If you want to talk, I'm here. If not, then you don't have to." And then leave it at that.

Sounds like she is uncouth. why lower yourself to her level?\n\nor if you just have to tell her:\n\n"I may be just a little overweight, but I can diet and lose weight, but you will still be rude!"

no.  she is on a track to becoming healthier.  If she ahs dieted in an unhealthy way that concerns you, then you should talk with her about that, but if you are no longer attracted to her, then you should let her go.
