You're 5'3" and 93 lbs, and eating 600-700 calories a day, according to your previous posts.

What you need is a reality check.

Here's what you do: you leave the library, and you go find the school nurse (if you have one) or, failing that, a guidance counselor or a teacher you trust. Tell them that you think you're fat, tell them that you haven't been eating for weeks, and they will help you.
they would call me crazy.i have been through the therapists and ciounclers and nutionists.i dont care if im underweight for someone else i have to be perfect for me.i just wanna know some better diet tips to help me lose weight.
OMG....93 lbs and 5'3".  You definitely  need to go and talk to someone.  You are not getting enough calories to function...that's why you are tired.  10 lbs in two weeks is crazy at your weight.  I hope you can find someone to talk to soon.

its not a big deal.i dont need anyone to tlk to.

Aaaand it's times like these that I use two handy little CC functions: "report violation" and "block user". To all you future readers who feel  themselves getting agitated about this thread, I highly recommend it!!

ok so i ask a simple question and u think im promoting anorexia and stuff.ya ur really helpful.

"HUNGRY (help me out)" - try eating something. It normally helps.

yea but

1. i have no money and

2 . im at school and theres no free carrots

3.i dont wanna feel like **** afterwards.

annabelleeatsbabies,

Are you asking us what you can eat that you can obtain without money?

What exactly are you asking?

You've said that you're hungry and that you want to lose 10 lbs in 2 weeks.

You're hungry because you haven't been eating properly.

You don't need to lose any more weight.

What kind of help are you really asking for here?

It's not a "simple question" you're asking us to help you damage your already frail body. Losing more weight isn't what you need. 

what you are describing is caused by long term starvation.  carrots, grapes and coffee won't fix that.  If you can't function, you need treatment in the hospital. 

You need the help of a professional right away.  Start with the school nurse and have her call your parents to take you to the nearest emergency clinic for treatment.  That's how serious this is.

 Well at the rate you're going, you will wind up in the emergency room, and then you won't have much of a choice.

Better to talk to someone now while you are still able to make the choice.

i wont end up in the er  im fine.and if i were to end up there can they make me stay in a hospital or do i have the choice

 You're fine now, maybe.

If you do wind up there, they can make you stay until they think you're better.

It's called involuntary commitment, and all it takes is two doctors to certify you are a danger to yourself. 

well if i tel them i eat it shouldnt be a problem then now should it

 Do you really think they're that stupid?

Your body will tell them you're not eating. 

uhmmm, how old are you?
17
are you posting this just so you can hear people tell you you need to eat or what. this is ridiculous
If you do not have any $ -- I'm sure an adult at school- counselor, teacher, school nurse will feed you- all they have to do is listen to you tell your story of: not feeling well, feeling tired, not being able to function-- I'm sure it is obvious to them that you have an ED.  Also, no rational person is going to tell you how you can lose 10 lbs. in 2 wks-- that is crazy & I realize that you are young, but I'm thinking that even you know that there is a flaw in your weight-loss goal-- big suprise-- ppl are not going to support this.....

 If you're only 17, your parents can say they want you to stay at the hospital.
