Because someone who is anorexic has gone beyond fatloss, and has eaten into any lean muscle mass they might of had. Not the physique a healthy person would want or desire. joanne

Not that I want to be anorexic by any means, but it goes against what is supposed to happen when you don't eat enough. You would think that anorexic people would all be stuck at one weight. -- DisneyDana
From: Cubit on 24 Oct 2005 17:30 How many obese people can be seen in the films of the survivors being freed from the German concentration camps? Surely, a percentage of those interned were obese. According to the theory of fat retention because of calories that are too low, these victims should have been trapped in their obese body shapes. I have read that the standard rations were 600 calories per day.
