My friend has been starving himself and vomiting up his food consistently for the past 2 years i’d say, he’s about 65kg whilst being around 6’1, i try to tell him that it’s bad for your health and that sooner or later he’ll just put the weight back on again anyway, but he hasn’t, he’s stayed being relatively skinny and there has been no changes in his behaviour or personality in fact i’d say he’s much happier than he’s ever been.

Your friend has an eating disorder by the sound of it.
Anorexia/bulimia is bad because your body doesn’t just eat fat, it eats your muscles, too. That’s not a healthy way to lose weight. It sounds like your friend suffers from a bit of both. Usually anorexics just starve themselves, while bulimics will often binge eat, and then throw it all up. It kind of sounds like your friend is doing a combination of the two.
Do some google image searches on people with these illnesses and you’ll quickly see why it’s ‘bad.’
