1. Very dangers for you. If you are anorexic and bulimic than you most likely will not know when enough is enough. If you really won't to lose Waite than get to a Doctor and let him help you.

3. Crash dieting will upset your body balance, sudden drop in calorie intake will slow down your metabolism and make the body go on "survival mode" by shutting down some "not so important" function in your body to reserve energy. It will also try to save as much as energy as possible to fat to prepare your body for the next "famine/starve". If you were anorexic you maybe experience this : hairs fall of, dry skin, hormonal/menstruation problems, internal organs failure at extreme cases. And when you eat normal again, your weight suddenly gain rapidly, maybe even more than the first time you start. Just eat heathy and controlled and exercise regularly, that will balance the body, the result maybe slow, but permanent because you're also change your way of live.
