Are you deliberately not eating, through your own choice in order to lose weight, or for some other reason?
If you are doing it for that reason, stop now and start eating. Starving yourself causes short term problems - you look and feel awful, you have bad breath, you will be constipated - and can cause severe long term problems.

Yes your body has gone into starvation mode. It will start to consume your muscle fibre sson and you will just look shapeless, but flabby, as the fat will remain.
Exercise and eat a healthy balanced diet. God how it annoys me when women just starve themselves and think it will make them slim.
Those emaciated size zero celebs look like that because, yes they do starve themselves, but they also do hours and hours of exercise, they lose all their muscle and tone and end up looking like a bag of bones covered in skin. It's bad for their health and actually ages them alot faster.

Been there and done that, and a friend of mine ended up 5 minutes from death from it, it's a road to ruin.
It took me years to get in anyway better in including 4 hospital stays, a lot of pain (both physical and mental), it affected my studies, my friendships, relationships and family, everything really.
Where do you stop? Will you ever be happy with your shape (very unlikely) or will you just end up keeping on going?
It does horrendous things to your body, the effects of starving yourself may still appear and come back to haunt you years down the line.
It also changes your feelings towards your body and food with often long lasting implications. Never let it get on top of you, if you get that far, you'll never get rid of it, just lern how to try and control it more than it controls you.
It can also become an addition which takes you over so that however much you thing you might be controlling it that's very far from the truth.
You think being thin will make you happy? The only think that will do that it letting yourself be happy with the way you are, learning to like and respect yourself.
Take the control back now hon, it's really not worth it, x
