Why is it so bad

Why is it so bad to not eat ? Just wondering. If your body can handle it then why is it so bad ?

That's the thing- your body *can't* handle it.

It puts stress on your vital organs, and can cause them to shut down. People die from Anorexia. All in all, not a crash-hot idea.

well I guess if you want to its your own prerogative, but personally I think its ugly, your cheek bones are all out there, just not normal. you look like an alien,
your welcome for the advice! :]

It's like tring to drive a car with no gas.
Food is 'gas' for your body and without it your body will not function.
Organs may become so damaged that they will stop working and sometimes they do not ever recover.

Water is also a huge 'must have' for your body to function correctly.

I had a sister while in her 20's started having problems and they kept getting worse so she finally went to a doctor. They ran all kinds of tests and in the end they told her that her body was 'drying up' inside because she apparently was not drinking enough fluids. We all though that was stupid but she started drinking more and everything got better. We were amazed that all the problems she had been suffering were just from the lack of liquid which her organs needed to work.

but why do others care so much if it's your choice and you just dont want to eat?thank you so much!!!

If you don't eat the glucose levels in your blood drop. Your brain runs solely on glucose for energy. Your body must burn fat stores and reduce your basal metabolism to compensate for the lack of energy. Burning fat produces more acid and ketones than eating food- hard on all your body organs if it continues for any amount of time. Meantime your brain it only hitting on 4 of it's 6 cylinders (you can't learn or process information as well as you should.) When your basal metabolism goes down it stays down even after you start to eat again, making it easier for you to gain weight, and much harder to lose.

'but why do others care so much if it's your choice and you just dont want to eat?thank you so much!!!'

Because these other people most likely love you, and they can see the damage you're doing to your body, try seeing it from their point of view. To them you may as well be loading a gun up and putting it to your head.

food provides nutrients. we need a variation of those nutrients in order to stay healthy..
your body CAN'T handle not eating, not having any food..
your body needs food. you can only go so long without it

oh how wronhg you are
no...your body cant handle not eating
in your own mind, you might THINK its handling it well
but its not
not eating can cause many health problems
it also shows your perception of yourself is wrong, and you probably think your fat when your not
and you can die from not eating
as well as that your body cant run on nothing. food is fuel
without that fuel your body cant keep up with the things youd do in a normal day
youll become weak, slow, and sluggish

        Simply a Rose to brighten your day,
        And maybe lessen the cares in your way;
        And also, too, to help you to know,
        That in knowing you, many others grow!
