Is it normal to want to weigh 99 pounds?

I'm 19 years old and am 5'4(ish). My dream weight is 99 pounds. I know this is a very unhealthy weight. I used to be anorexic but the lightest i ever was is 110. I still remember when i first tipped over the hundred mark, i think i was 14 or so. I was so ashamed and never told anyone, although im sure other girls weighed that too. It makes me really sad that i'm over a hundred but i dont understand why(i dont even want to tell u how much ive gained since giving up my 'diet') my boyfriend makes me eat, but it gives me anxiety because i feel so gross and like i'll never reach my goal unless i go back to my old eating habbits, and recently ive been getting panic attacks. i love him though and he made me choose one or the other, him or my anorexia. I hate eating but am scared to lose him if I go back. (i know its normal to eat... i dont know why it makes me feel gross and embarassed)

Is It Normal?

    If you chose for dieting, you don´t know how BAD you will look. And if you keep going that way, you will never be happy because you will always want to be skinnier and skinnier.
    Be careful cause you are seriously risking your life. Under 20 year old girls die all the time because of your problem. Do you want to die at your age? I think you should just be happy, feel privileged that you have a boyfriend that wants good for your and helps you to overcome the problem. You should listen to him and be happy with him and eating healthy! Eating is a pleasure of life and you should enjoy it too!!!!!

    That's not a helpful answer. I would say you should try talking with some type of professional.

    You're 19. Stop thinking like a girl and act like a fucking woman.

    I am 5'7" and I would LOVE to weigh 99 pounds, though I know it will never happen! I currently weigh 132 and I hate it, since I feel like a big fat cow. My goal is to get back into the 120s. 119 would be cool though!
