Ok. So first let me start off by saying I feel like I'm chubby. I wish I could be like those skinny girls at school and wear cute clothes and not be self conscious. All my friends and family tell me I'm skinny but I don't see it.

I have tried a lot of diffrent diets but I didn't see a change with any of them. 5 weeks ago I started eating less to see if that would help. I started eating less and less over the weeks and people started saying I was looking skinner. About two weeks ago the PE teacher said something to the councilor and she talked to me about possibly having a eating disorder. Except I don't think I have one. I decided to try and start eating more but it's hard cause first after eating I would get horrible pains in my stomach. But now after eating I feel super full even if it's a small amount and feel like I need to go run 5 miles. Sometimes I don't even feel hungry or just don't feel like eating cause people have noticed a difference and I want it to stay that way.

I know it's dangerous to not eat and I have been scared of getting a eating disorder but I really don't think I will. I went to the doctors 3 days ago and I'm at a good weight I guess cause she didn't say anything but I feel like I am fat.

Is this normal?

    i think u have an eating disorder. or at least a serious problem. once u realize you have a problem, you will be able to begin to fix it. i wish u the best. there's nothing wrong with wanting to get into shape or lose a little weight as long as your body can afford losing some. how tall are you and how much do you weigh? I'm a female, 5'3" tall, and 135 lb. I want to be 110 lb. never got around to exercising regularly or eating more properly thought lol.

    This is normal... However, I want you to know that you don't have to compare yourselves to other women. If everyone compared themselves to Albert Einstein we'd all feel insecure about our intelligence. The trick is to compare yourself to yourself. If you think that you look more attractive then yesterday, that's great. But if you think that you look better than that "pretty" girl, that's not good for your self esteem.

    I know that being around people can make a person feel insecure but at the end of the day you have to accept yourself for who you are. Someday you'll realize that. In the mean time, I suggest eating healthy and exercising. Looking thin isn't all that matters and from your post, you sound like a very sweet girl.

    You need to suck cocks and swallow the cum. It will make you hair shiny too.

    "Eating Disorder" is so over used these days! It really makes me mad, if you are being healthy and losing weight people should applaud that, not make it seem like some kind of mental illness. If you are eating atleast 1400 calories I think you are fine!

    You sound as though you have an eating disorder coz you said you feel full so want to go for a run!! When I feel full I want to lounge on the sofa and watch TV so it sounds like you're trying to burn off the calories.

    Ayrhia is right about eating healthy but please please please don't try to follow any diets on your own. Ny sister went vegetarian - never lost an ounce - but all her teeth have become discoloured and look awful. My cousin didn't eat enough nutritional food and her hair fell out in chunks. She has about as much hair as would fill an eggcup - even though it's to her shoulders. We can see her scalp!!

    I'd say if school staff are talking about you, you look 'at risk' even if you can fool your doctor. Check out your BMI and stay within it. Fruit, veg, protein are all essential to you just cut DOWN on the carbs, your brain still needs carbs to function though!!

    i'm sure there are many things in your appearance that you already have that you can have confidence in! i like my face, hair, and bodyshape (once i lose some weight). i just wish i was a little taller lol. the most important thing (more important than losing weight) is to feel good! do you feel good? do you feel strong, healthy, and energetic? or are u always tired, unsatisfied, and guilty? best of luck! i hope u don't make your mother more worried than she is! :)

    As long as what you do eat is nutritious and you aren't throwing up, you are okay.
