Am I anorexic?

Am I anorexic if I eat 2000 calories a day, but want to eat 500 or under?

I just want to know. I'm getting worried. Say yes or no.

You need at LEAST 1200 calories a day to be healthy.

I know that BUT AM I ANOREXIC???

Eating 2000+ calories is good... eating under 500 calories would be really bad and probably be considered anorexic stick to 1200+ cals aday.

this doesn't sound healthy, you should consider talking to a professional about this. Generally anorexia is a mental condition, it is mostly about control. Are you wanting control over something in your life, or are you just wanting to lose weight. If you are just wanting to lose weight, (and not gain it back) you would be going about it the wrong way.

No, you're anorexic if you don't eat at all

Anorexic, I don't think its exactly the type of condition that you actually draw the line on. If your diet is making you sick because of malnutrition, then you have a few millions Anorexic people in Africa, it does not work that way. Like the fella said above, its generally a mental condition. Your diet is making you sick because you want to be skinnier, can't stop and is never satisfied that is a simpler definition of Anorexia.

it isnt a yes or no question
first of all anorexia involves a behavior as well as a mental condition
wanting to starve yourself doesnt make you anorexic
If you started restricting your diet, this still doesnt make you anorexic, infact it doesnt necessarily mean you have an eating disorder... people on diets are obviously not all anorexic...
Now if you're starving yourself for the wrong reasons, your eating habits become harmful, cannot actually see how big you are, etc etc, then we're in the domain of an eating disorder. If you are under a BMI of 17.5 and have several other symptoms, then you can be classified as having anorexia...

no you're not anorexic.
although wanting to eat 500 calories per day is not good.
if you did that it could lead to anorexia.
are you binging on 2,000 calories per day or eating normal meals??
