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 is doing damage to his body. He has bulimia and anorexia.
Sure, it’s a good way to “loose weight” but it’s also a great way to cause damage to his organs due to lacking vital nutrients. It’s a great way to lose teeth and get mouth and esophagus cancer because of the constant damage from stomach acid.
Calories cause you to retain and gain fat. Nutrients maintain your health by giving your body building materials to replace dead cells.
This is why 1200 calories is considered the MINIMUM people should eat… Any less and you aren’t really able to get the nutrients you need in so little food.
