I've heard of people losing that much weight in a month before without being anorexic... but I still think that you should probably make sure if she is or not.

Awww that's so nice that youre concerned about her. : ) Anyways, well I'm not sure if she's anorexic. There might be a chance that she is I guess. You should probably just try talking to her I mean, maybe she was frustrated because she might always be around skinnier people or something and it really isnt good 4 her self esteem, like you weigh 102 and hang out wit her right? Well she might have started feeling bad and comparing herself to you. Everybody is different but sometimes, when you're overweight or close to it, it's hard to accept that because of all the people around that are skinnier than you. I weigh about as much as she did and whenever I hung out with my skinnier friends I always felt so bad and compared myself to them, its relly hard to deal with everybody being so skinny around me. Anyways, you should probably ttry to talk to her and try to find out what's wrong. If her problem is that everybody around her is skinny and it makes her feel bad, then I don't really kno what to do, maybe you could help her stay thinner but just in a healthy way if she is anorexic. Either way, whatever you do you have to find out whats goin on with her, somebody does because if she lost that much weight being anorexic then it must be pretty bad already and something has 2 be done. If she won't tell you, try hangin out with her sometime and see if she eats or anything, you know, like for a day and try to see whats goin on with her. Sorry if I wasn't much help, I don't really know wat to say about it, just try to talk to her and all that and if worst comes 2 worst then you should probly go talk 2 her mom. Good luck with talkin 2 her and all that, you're a really good friend to be concerned and try to help her.

your friend might be anerexic. it depends on various facts.first,one of my bfs was starving herself she wore big sweat shirts and sweat pants.her parents got a devirce and it really trook a toll on her, so she stated blaming herself and saying that it is because she is fat. it could also be a posablity that your friend lost weight naterally.

She's anorexic? No I think the question is..Are you Anorexic? 102 pounds? thats not what a 15 year old female should weigh. Specially if you are around 5'0- and 5'5 in height. I dont think your friend is Anorexic..125 is very healthy.
