If an anorexic is tube fed in a treatment center, how many calories does he/she receive daily?

Why? Don't you want them to stay alive?

I heart he lord? We may have a fanatic on our hands.

In more ways than one.

I say 3211. Am I close enough to win the pprize. The prize is a large McRib sammich

Yup . . . actually was bein' nice . . . if you read that as "I hear the lord," then we know we've got a nut bar on the line. The boy's hearin' voices.

Anorexic saints prefer to be tube fed thistle seed oil.

Apparently, Chris here didn't care for the responses he (?) got. He started another thread.

Both threads popped up at the same time. Like a lot of newbies who think they did something wrong if they can't immediately see their post and try again.

I prefer to treat a post like this seriously. Having worked with anorexic girls, this poster might be trying to figure out a way to beat the system and burn off any calories forced into her body. She (I'm betting it's a female) is using some technical language. Granted, she could also be studying for some type of nursing test and is trying to grab a few answers here.

That's a good point, but the "I hear the lord" BS is disturbing. If the author is the one in a temporary commitment and is trying to avoid the feeding tube, with a name like that, you do have to wonder what her (?) motivation is.

By the way, 5150 as a name for a temporary commitment places the action in California, for what that's worth, if anything.

I don't think the poster is coming back. She either passed out from hunger, guessed at the test answer or was raptured.

You know, this website was not created for non answers! It was made to get answers not wicked remarks so I will go ahead and give one.

I am taking a guess here, the calories are determined depending on how much weight they need to gain. In some cases, they are started off slowly, 1000 calories a day. Ideally, a healthy person requires 1600-2000 per day.

Lastly,
Psalms 10:
In pride, the wicked holy pursue the afflicted;
Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.
For the wicked boasts of his heart's desires, And the greedy man
curses and spurns the Lord

and you base that upon....?
