I'm 5'0" and i'm 105 at the moment. I don't believe she's 92lbs in that pic on the right. I look like that at 105 and just a few lbs is a huge difference when you're 5'0"

This is 5'0" at 88lbs and very clearly underweight. At this point you might no longer have periods. You're more likely to break bones in a fall as you probably have a calcium deficiency and if you still have periods you are additional risks. There's some additional risks in severe cases like organ failure and shit because your heart and lungs weaken over time. When I was at 103 I still had irregular periods but I was becoming anemic and during particularly heavy periods I would sometimes be unable to stand. Eventually I was medicated (for PCOS surprise surprise) and now my weight fluctuates between 105 and 108 and has for over a decade since I've been medicated. The girl in the post obviously wants to be underweight. She mentions she's struggled with eating disorders and body image. I don't think we should be coming to her defense. But the whales have no right to harp at her either. At this point I would encourage her to keep healthy habits (and it's good she's seeing professional therapy during all this) but I would never ever fucking tell someone to "go eat a cheeseburger" when you can tell in her pics she's is within a healthy weight at the moment.

Yeah, okay? That page just shows those at 100lbs or less so if you click on each photo it shows you their exact weight and most on there self report "100lbs". OP in the pictures claims she's 92lbs. 8lbs is a huge difference at that height. She wants to go even further to 88lbs. The picture I posted is of an individual at 5'0" and 88lbs.

Thank you, it didn't look right to me either. I'm 4'11, 97lbs, and muscular. Her before pic on the left makes her look around 115 to 120, and her after pic looks more like 105. Something's fishy, maybe her scale is broken, as she looks way fatter in the before pic. She doesn't weigh as low as she is claiming, it's like she wants a reaction out of the whales.

I think it's possible to be ok at a 17.2 bmi if you have no muscle tone like op's pics. But if she decides to actually get some muscle to be more shapely than 105 is probably better.
