Lose 7 Lbs. in 7 Days

I’m doing a project on anorexia for advanced Psycology. I’m currently writing a fictional case-study but need it to be written using real-life facts.
I’m going to base it on a 17year old girl, 5′5 and 135lb pre-illness.
Can anyone with good knowledge of the illness tell me how much weight she would averagely lose in week 1,2,3 etc.
I know that every case is very different so i just need very generalised, averaged figures.
Thanks

if you were really doing this experiment then you would know everyone varies and that eating disorders are a mental health issue. Also you would be reading your material instead of asking this q on here.

double majored in sociolgy and psychology.
You have the eating disorder: here are some of your q’s

Have i eaten enough today?
Most days i have a bowl of cereal with skimmed milk for breakfast, an egg sandwich no mayo for lunch and a bowl of cereal again for dinner.
I do not eat after 5pm.
Is this enough to maintain my weight?

Why have my periods stopped?
I have always been very regular (every 21-23 days) but i have now not had a period for 2 months. I have been celibate since August so there is no way i can be pregnant but i have changed my eating habits. I used to eat lots of small meals a day throughout the day but now i just eat in the evening due to work.
I’ve not intentionally been starving myself but could it be that i am not eating enought and thats why they’ve stopped (i don’t weigh myself) or can the mere change of eating habits stop periods for a bit?

Im only eating 700kcal a day…?
I’ve never had an appetite or really enjoyed food since i was young but when i was living at home my mum would force me to eat or give me calorie laden food when i did eat. Now however i’ve moved out and looking back i’ve realised i’ve only been eating about 700kcal a day and i don’t tend to eat anything before 5pm.
Am i going to lose a lot of weight?

N.B I don’t have an eating disorder and i don’t want to lose weight i just dont remember to eat!

anorexics would have a SLOWER metabolic rate! they starve themselves and so their bodies would be trying to live off fat they may already have. NOT a good road to go down!

Reiss: get some help on your eating disoder .
