Answer #4

Eventaully people do die from not eating. At 103 lbs it doesn’t sound like you have a lot of extra fat to survive.

Your body goes through several changes when you don’t eat. The dizzy feeling you are getting comes from ketosis and/or starvation acidosis.

I don’t know exactly why you are fasting. It is probably time to eat something; preferably something bland and easy to digest.

Answer #5

Hey hun you really do need to eat because thats not good for you. If you are worried about what you look like then eat healthy like salads, chicken, fruit.. Trust me you shouldnt be worried about your weight because my 13 year cuzzin weighs 100pounds and she is like a twig and you only weigh 3 pounds more than her so. Your feeling dizzy because your not giving your body any energy by not eating and thats why you want to throw up EAT SOMETHING TODAY YOU WILL FEEL BETTER if you need anyone to talk to or anymore advice im more than happy to
