I Wanna Be… under 90 lbs
Hi I don’t know so much about my desire to be under 90 lbs for the remainder of my life and I’m concerned I might be anorexic or worse and wanted to seek your advice on what could I possibly be facing.

There are charts you can find on line called BMI charts or Body Mass Indicators. Although I found one and heres the link: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Put in your current weight and height and the calculator will let you know if in the normal range or overweight. It doesnt have anything stating what is underweight but if you look at the lowest number on the height and weight chart, the lowest number is 91 lbs for a person 4 ft 10 inches. So 90 would be slightly underweight for a person that height. ANy taller and you would be severely underweight.
I don't know if you are male or female or your age but I will state that more females than males are concerned about their weight and the weight they want is underweight. Also, if women, its more common in teens and twenties to see females unhappy with their weight. If you are young and already underweight, you should see your doctor. If you are eating less and less and worried about gaining weight still or eating and purging right after by forcing yourself to vomit, then those are eating disorders and you will need help. If young and the body is still developing, it won't be getting the nourishment it needs and so your body development in all areas, especially reproductive can be affected terribly. You can't gain health organs and everything else after the age you should reach your adult size body, you'll be stuck with whatever you did to yourself, or if it's another medical issue causing this, I can't say what else could happen. Just the fact you desire to be 90 lbs says enough to me that you are not desiring a normal weight, no matter what your age is. If you are a very very young child still in grade school, then you'd be obese, and if a teen or older, you'd be underweight. SO what you think is a good weight, isn't. Please talk to your parents if a minor, and have them call your Dr. to see if you are currently at a normal weight. I am 52 and weighed 110 all through HS. Even that looks anorexic as people would ask my sister if I was. But that is still in the healthy range, as well as my current weight of 130. So the ranges are quite vast to account for snall or big boned and such. If you are an adult, call your Dr. and see what they say. Due to the pandemic, many Dr. offices are only doing phone chat appts to answer any questions so keep that in mind.
