If you're anorexic/bulimic because you want to acheive "perfection", you actually probably look far less than perfect than if you ate healthy food everyday. You probably look sickly and bony, and your hair is probably limp and falling out. You can be thin just by eating super-healthy food instead of junk, and you'll actually be thin and look good from eating right.

If you think being emaciated is attractive, just ask any guy and they'll tell you they prefer healthy, curvy women over pale, heroin-chic women with no breasts or hips. It's too bad our culture says that emaciated is attractive and girls actually buy it, because in reality to most men it's not at all. (why would you want a man who prefers bone-thin women anyway?) in evolutionary terms, men are attracted to women who can bear them children. Sickly, unhealthy women are therefore unappealing. So maybe you should reconsider starvation and feel good and happy for once by eating right instead of tired and hungry all the time.

Another thing: stop reading women's magazines like vogue, etc. Because they're bad for self-image. They're trying to burn into your mind that you can look "perfect" (like the bony skinny models) if you buy everything in the magazine... But you never quite acheive that perfection because they models aren't even real themselves (they're airbrushed and they've probably had plastic surgery) and you just keep giving money to these cosmetic and clothing companies without ever coming close - and they love that.

If you want to be thin, eat healthy foods all the time. That's what i've done for 2 years now, and i'm thin. I don't starve myself. And I feel great.
