Hi,
Sorry if this post is not welcomed,
I cant really find the words to make it diplomatic and safe,
But,
I know under a bmi of 18 is worrying
Under 15 is just really dangerous,
But what weight can a person be when they are probably going to die,
My sister is really ill and I just want to know the level of serious risk involved.
I mean am I worrying to much, or not enough.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
For some girls only a bit under healthy weight can mean lasting and severe damage to health and for some it can easily lead to heart failure. If she appears anorexic, I would definitely try to talk to her about it and have her see a doctor immediately.
your all very concerned,
she is anorexic, she has been for a few years,
she knows it and admitts it sometimes,
her bmi is just under 14.
she cant even open doors sometimes, becasue shes too weak.
so i was just wondering how low a body can go really.
shes not getting better, shes still loosing weight. slowly.
thanks for your concern!
really good of you all.
