This path is pure misery.
You need your wits about you and you will lose them the deeper you get into severe restriction.

it's simple: don't eat

It's not simple for me to just not eat anymore so I meant more what are things I can do, drink, think to curb my hunger

I'm already living in pure misery and have completely lost myself I don't plan to die by to starving because it's unrealistic but I do want to be severely underweight when I do kill myself

Can I ask why? wdym "barely here"?

I don't have a logical answer I'm already slightly underweight but I want to be skin and bones when I do it I don't know why I just want there to be less of me

Are you trying to starve yourself to death, or just be thin when you do ctb? Starving to death is a much harder method. As for tips, it's like just follow the diet rules but take it to an extreme. If ppl fast for 4 hours a day, you do it 8, 10, 12. Only give urself an hour to eat. Drink lots of water, it'll fill ur stomach make it feel like it's full. Find snacks that are low calorie but you can eat in a pinch if you think ur gonna eat smth else instead. If you are jsut trying to lose weight you don't need to stop eating entirely but eat much less then what a normal person would. Counting calories and stuff could help. I think a person needs at least 800 calories a day minimum for health, but anywhere from 1200-2400 are generally recommended for a normal diet. Some ppl say to try to eat at least 500 calories a day to help ur brain function, but im pretty sure its gonna be cranky either way. I always found that just tracking and trying to distract urself l throughout the day is what helps the best. (Also if this violates some type of rule feel free to remove it whoever)

Don't eat obviously. Or just eat and be normal and not suffering. Life already sucks so do what makes you happy

You don't want to go down this path. Anorexia is hell. Pure hell. You think you're in hell now, just wait until every waking moment, and even your dreams become consumed with food and calories and eating. All you can think about is how many calories you've eaten today, how many more you're allowed to have, what you have to do if you go over to punish yourself. You'll start to experience mental hunger where you begin to fantasize about foods you don't allow yourself to eat and that doesn't sound that bad until you experience it and realize it's torture. Not to mention the dizziness, the fatigue, the pain. You won't have energy to do anything anymore. If you have a job, are in college, have any commitments or hobbies, you can say goodbye to those as your brain and body become too tired to function. When the hypoglycemia starts to hit it becomes too much to leave the house, I often don't feel safe to drive anymore as my blood sugar drops so frequently. Eventually as your body gets weaker it's very common to experience severe chest pains and trouble breathing as your heart can't keep up anymore. It is mental and physical torture. You do not want this for yourself.

I did something similar back when I was in high school because I also wanted to be skinnier before I ctbed and I wouldn't recommend it.

The suicide method is "VSED" "Voluntarily Stopping Eating and Drinking," which may not be relevant to your question.

Food does not suppress appetite; appetite suppressants do.

If you want Ana tips, go to the ED websites.

I was this way as a young teenager sorry if it's insensitive but I do want that again I want to wither away again I just don't have the will power I used to I don't remember how I used to commit to this

You can start by doing intermediate fasting. That will get you used to not eating. So for example only eat during a 4-Hour period. So skip breakfast and lunch. You can drink water or coffee. Nothing with calories though. And then just eat at 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and just get used to that and then do it for 2 days. And see how that goes. And then try 3 days. And just gradually into it.

I do intermediate fasting. And I find that I'm not even hungry during my 4-Hour eating window.

don't go down that route... please, it's not worth it

Do you want actual tips?

Okay, first I am a different body type to you, I am male, 26.
What authority do I have? I have been starving myself on-and-off for 5 years, and this year alone I have lost 40 kg of weight. I keep a journal of everything I eat.

I'll organise what I say into bullet points, but remember these are tips, you would be wise to do your own research.

• There are levels of starvation, my body needs at least 2,500 calories to not lose or gain weight in the day-to-day, if I eat under 2,500 it puts me in a diet zone. If I eat under 1,000 I would say that is a starvation zone. I am assuming you are a boy too, so you should aim for under 1,200 if you wish to loose weight.
• I have done 0-Calorie days before, the longest chain I could have was 4 days, before I gave in a binge ate, during those four days I was psychotic and self harmed like fucking crazy, if you wish to do 0-days, YOU NEED TO KEEP BUSY, no games or porn or whatever, ACTUALLY KEEP BUSY, else you will go psycho like me.
• I would strongly recommend, going for under 1,000 calories for a week, this can be done via salads and meat, I go to aldi, buy 3 salads, and some chicken for £5 and it roughly is 500 calories for three meals, high in protein (will fill you up), then you can add in a kitkat or an iron brew as I do, and there is 800 calories and congrats you are starving, not insane and self harming, AND you can hide the fact from your family.
• Anyway I will wrap this up, if you go 0Kal, keep busy, try going under 1,000 for a week or two and watch the weight melt off you
• One last thing, try and keep exercise light and fluffy when starving... I went to the gym one time and started having hallucinations due to being on a 4 day starvation run
