To have an eating disorder

Do you have to be skinny? Or can you be fat and just not eating and have an eating disorder too?

Answer #1

Any thing that is too extreme is an eating disorder. Over weight people can be over weight from not exercising and eating too much, which is an eating disorder. If that person chooses to stop eating, then all of their muscles will go to fat because their body thinks that it is starving.
