How quickly do people with Anorexia Nervosa loose weight?

I'm currently in a Fashion Theory class and I'm writing a paper on body images and gender. As the media is portraying thinner and thinner women in their ads, I'm researching different types of body ideals found all around the earth and this includes diseases. However, does anyone know how rapidy a individual who is anorexic looses weight?

Update:

Along with my information, I need a survey of opinions.

    if you are writing a paper, you need to get your facts right! Contact a proper treatment clinic or specialist medic to get an accurate answer - your average person online can't answer this and is only guessing. Even someone who has experience of having the disease won't necessarily show what is 'typical' of the condition.
