Dude... you know, it's possible to be thin and frail-looking without being unhealthy. Try eating normally and doing some aerobic exercise. Trust me... people who don't eat because they want to be thin end up only being pretty in their coffins... way before they should.

I second Sebastien.
Stuff like thinspiration is really unhealthy and will harm you in the short and long run.
But hey, if you want to be so skinny you will fall unconcious at random moments, while your body is eating itself, go right ahead. Sacrifice everything for the sake of looking thin, right?
If you think I'm a bit harsh, just wait how harsh life is when you are lying in bed, too weak to stand up because of this obsession with "thinspiration", a tube of mashed food going directly to your stomach.
It's more likely than you think.

Consider; why would you want to look so incredibly unhealthy?
I mean, is it going to make you happy?
No, it really isn't.

Second that.. and because you aren't eating properly you will get more and more depressed.
Also it wont help with passing.
I don't recommend this at all.
Like Seb said eat healthy, exercise and you can go for your desired look.

Also, not eating adds to weight fluctuations. The only way to lose weight and keep it off is to have a healthy diet.

Be careful. It's all too easy to self-abuse through eating (or lack thereof) without realizing it - thinking you just want to change how your body looks, when you really want to punish it for not being what you want it to be (I've been through this, and it was very upsetting when I realized what I had been doing to myself and why). The fact that you say you want to look fragile is what makes me worry about you. :-X But I could be wrong, of course.
The best way to do what's healthy for your body is to listen to it. If you're hungry, then eat; keep healthy foods around if you're really worried about keeping weight off. Exercising will help you feel better and slim down, aerobics I believe are the best way to get rid of fat without building too much muscle if you really don't want to look stocky - although muscles build confidence for most guys.

I have just looked at some videos on pro-ana and to be honest.. the women look sick They need help, and maybe you need to get some professional help if you wish to look like them aswell.

You don't look fat from all the pictures you've posted. It actually appears like you have to gain more weight!
As someone with an insanely fast metabolism, being really skinny is not fun. I just lost 10lbs and I'm not even sure how it happened. But this isn't good for me, why? Because when you're really thin you get sick easier, your body has to work harder and you get tired very easily. And if you keep starving yourself, when the metabolism you already have working right now slows down, you'll GAIN weight if you try to 'starve' yourself, this usually happens in your early twenties. Nothing good comes from this... not only that, but if you get on testosterone, you will have to eat even more calories to be healthy.
Emoboi, it is clear to me that this isn't a weight issue, this a self-worth issue. Start being happy about yourself the way you are now. Write lists and lists of things that you like about yourself because losing weight will not make you any happier.
