I suffered from Anorexia as a teenager... I was always tired and cranky. Once I started eating again and exercising in moderation I was a happy girl. Your body needs food as it is fuel for your body, without it you are a tired, cranky piece of sh!t!\n\nTell him to lose weight the sensible way! Eat lots of healthy food and exercise!

YESSSSSS!! dont listen to ppl that tell you NOT TO EAT! If you let your body think its starving (not getting the calories it needs) it will kick into starvation mode and keep every calorie it can, every bite of food it will store into fat!!! You need to eat healthy snacks before and after your work out. You need to Fuel your body, give it what it needs and it wont feel as though its starving. :)

No your not the only one.  I use to be in your situation, I mean I never used to seem as run down as you say you are, or atleast not all the time, but it's a major drag to have to wait for buses & run your schedule around them. It makes you not want to do anything.  Especially where I use to wait for them in South TX where it's really hot.  The problem is that your not able to do what you want & w/ in your time schedule. So your just a little depressed which is what is making you feel like you don't want or have the energy to do anything.  & w/ the time it takes to wait for the bus & to actually get to where you want to go takes a bit of your time as they are  constantly making stops.  One of the mains things tht will help you in your situation would be to save some money & get a car. Even if it's just a little cheap car till you can get a little bit better one.  Which w/ a car you can than look for a better paying job since you'll have your own transportation now & can than save alittle quicker to get a better one.  This should take away the slight depression & low energy abt the bus thing.  & if this still doesn't have you feeling better after a couple or few wks you might actually be low in Iron.  When your body is low in Iron you tend to feel run down, no or little energy, even tired alot of the times, when you never use to be as tired all the time.  But before you go trying to consume Iron you should consult your Dr. to have some blood work done to test/check your Iron level.  & since it'll probably be alittle while before you can get a car you can even go ahead w/ checking your Iron level now so tht way if tht is one of the problems you can get a start on tht while you save for your car.  & if you don't want to go to the Dr. & get checked, you can start eating more iron rich foods. Such as leafy veggies like lettuce, spinach, etc.  If you don't like tht there's eggs, most soups, red meat, raisins, clams, & strawberries are a great source as they have Iron & vitamin C.  Vitamin C helps Iron to absorb in your body. But at the same time don't go & eat nothing but Iron rich foods as tht isn't good either. You can even check out these 2 health sites below.  Well I hope I have been able to help you.

work out.... starving yourself just slows down your matabilism and that wont help, cause then when you indulge you dont burn fat off so fast. WALK, RUN, SWIM, USE THE TREMILL< just go exercise and eat normally.

Is it just that you have no appetite or do you feel sick if you try to eat?\nReally, eat anyways. \n\nSkipping meals can lead to a wide variety of health problems.

uh.....no.  first off it does no good.  your metabolism will slow down causing you not to burn as many calories which kind of defeats the purpose.  plus it will hurt your body in so many ways it would take an hour to type it.  If someone is so superficial that weight even enters into their thoughts of someone they arent very good friends.  Dont get hung up on other people.   You have to live with you and harming yourself to make someone else like you makes no sense.  If you really want to work on weight work with your parents to help you get the correct food and amounts.  I like www.kraftfoods.com it gives you some idea of what to eat.

actually, sometimes, if you dont eat, your stomach swells. it might shrink, though, with luck. dont try it-you go weak, and if your stomach is small, the rest of you will be horrifying.

Basically starving yourself to lose weight eating only enough to stay alive.

Your head.  \n\nA starvation diet is a stupid, stupid thing to do.  First of all, you'll probably lose a bunch of weight quickly, but after very short time, your metabolism will slow down so much that the first time you eat anything, you'll gain weight.  If your body thinks it is starving, it will conserve every last scrap of energy (calories) and not burn any more than what it absolutely needs to survive.  \n\nIf you want to lose weight, eat less food, eat healthier food, and shut off your computer, go outside and get some exercise.

being on anything that doesnt give your body the right amount of nutrients is bad. you will be tired and unhealthy.

Depends on what you ate thats giving you gas..\n\nMostly, no. But you can get drowsy from lack of oxygen.

No! as soon as you go on a diet all you can think about is food and eating! You have to realise that you eat to live and dont live to eat and then you have to find the worthwhile things in your life that make your days special and enjoy. One day you will find that  dieting is an unnecessary evil

Confront her in seeking help by a doctor, nutritionist, or counselor. Because starving yourself will lead to many exposure to horrible diseases. Help her through this process because nobody can't do this alone. (Healthy weight range 125-145 pounds for girls who are 5'7")

Absolutely can mental negativity make you sick.\nAnger can cause cancer. We are not only what we eat but also what we think. to think bad things about people is as bad for you as to say them out loud.\nThoughts are things.I believe you can stay well by thinking possitive, forgive and don't judge as you can get sick from being angry. Give it a try. Tell yourself I am too large for worry, too nobel for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble
