how old are you?
im 13 and i weigh 90-95 pounds...so im da same.
im 5'1
im not anorexic, u dont make ur self throw up after eating a meal...do u?
other wise if u dont do that ur not anorexic...they are just jelous maybe...
dont force your self to eat and eat, if ur body gains any weigh, then let it do it on its own, dont try and make ur self fat...u might regret it later.

If you're eating regularly, not obsessing over food, and not starving yourself then odds are, you are not anorexic. If you do obsess over food, starve yourself, etc, then you should probably talk to somebody about it...IRL (in real life). eg, counselor, parents / family, etc.

You may just have a slim nature, personally until i hit about 8th grade, i was REALLY light for a guy who was about 5'9 i was maybe 120? That's pretty much because i had a little appetite, and that didn't make me anorexic and it doesn't for you either.

Im 16, im 5'2, and i weigh 96pounds, Some times i don't feel hungry, and when i am i can't eat much with out feeling sick, I try and gain weight but its really hard to, and some days its like all i do is eat, there is not one moment where im not eating or getting ready too eat, and i weigh myself sometimes when i eat, and i dont' even weigh 99. I don't know what to do? its hard to explain.

i think a similar thing happens to me
im 5'8 and im 120 lbs.
ive always just been on the skinnier side though
but since the summer has started ive been off my regular eating schedule
and now i just never seem to want to eat
its more like a chore for me
i mean
i feel my body being depleted of nutrients
but its so hard just to get food down my throat because my schedule is so irregular
its weird because if im not feeling too hungary that day
ill get high and it wont make too much of a difference

no, anorexia is somthing that your mind pretty much controls in some ways. you may be premature. my sister is pretty much the same. she's 19 years old , 5'0 and weighs 79 lbs. no, she's not anorexic. she's just very little because of the birth issues. she doesn't have a big appetite and she has a very fast metabolism.
