At tea I eat mum makes me my sis watches me.I eat slowly afterwards if i cant purge i exercise for an hour in my bedroom Do you think I am becoming anorexic or What?. I have a snack sometimes I just drink water whenever i cn. i feel fat and ugly. Lots of people call me skinny at school and I hate it When people like that say stuff like 'ughh your skinny put on weight' I think they are lieing Do you think I have got low self esttem or confidence? my mum is putting heaps of presssure on me she wants me to get to 8 n half stone gross!!!!!!! You might this why am i doing this well cause i feel fat. and i think victoria beckam looks good. i want to be size 0 but it aint happening please help me !!!!

Okay maybe it would 'nt do you much harm to put on 3 lbs or something, but if you don't want to eat thats your choice. I think 8 1/2 stone is too heavy anyway for a girl.

And if you can purge then do it!!! God its not as if it gets rid of all the calories anyway.

I think you have an eating disorder and thats ok but just don't starve to the point where you are collapsin all the time.

It sounds like you are no where near fat be careful about not eating you are still developing and could regret it when you are older it's OK to have a bit of weight just make sure you tone up.
you sound like you may have slight anorexia because it does start with your mentality about your body size.
you really need to eat healthy and that does mean three meals a day they can be low fat if you want but don't miss meals it's not good for you.

http://www.childrenfirst.nhs.uk/teens/he... I entered your details and it says your BMI is 16.3 and it says
A 16 year old child/young person whose weight is 7 stone 5 pounds and height is 5 feet 7 inches is not overweight. If you have any concerns that they may be underweight, you should see your doctor.
You do need help

Ah. I think you definitely have an eating disorder of some kind, but I'm not sure if it is anorexia or bulimia. I'm tending towards anorexia because you starve yourself, or make yourself vomit anything you've eating, or if you can't you overdo the exercise.

If people think you're skinny, then you must be very emaciated indeed - especially if you're fainting, as you have mentioned in other questions. Victoria Beckham does look good, but I doubt she's happy, she doesn't smile very much, for all her glamorous clothes and wonderful lifestyle. She's thin, yes, but not so thin that she's unhealthy. Bear in mind also that the likes of VB also have personal trainers, dieticians, cooks, stylists, make-up artists, etc., a whole army of people dedicated to keeping her looking the way she does. The rest of us just have to make do with our own sense of style and commonsense. People do not lie about what they see in front of them. If they say you're skinny, then you must be skinny.

I think you might also have that compulsion that relates to how you see yourself, you have a distorted idea of how you look. You're convinced you're fat, whereas other people see you're very thin. This is also common with people who have eating disorders.

I think that judging from your weight and height, you are probably dangerously underweight, and if you continue with this, you will quite possibly die from heart failure. (Yes, skinny people can also die from heart failure!) So you need to get help, see a doctor, and get recommended to a therapist or whatever is suitable for your age group. I think that very soon you will need to be hospitalised, if you don't get help soon.

well being a size 0 is not nice. you must have a bit of skin over your bones. having a low self esteem ... yes you do lack in confidence. i suffered your same symptoms when i was around your age. i guess it was to get the attention i wasn't having at the time. having your mother forcing you into eating is very wrong, i mean you will defiantly not eat just to spite her in a way. it's normal when people start to act in this way. i remember myself wanting to eat but still have mixed feelings about food. i would go for days without food and act as if i was eating a real big deal. but the more people encouraged me to eat, the more i would not want to see food with my eyes. later on i realized that i was not getting the attention i was seeking for and decided that i had a good figure and started to eat modirately. now days i still thing that i have way much weight to loose, and i m a size 2, but still i m not trying to fall back to seeking the attention which will finially make me feel week and ugly. do not fall in the trap of anorexia, believe it is difficult to get out of it.
ps. bulimia is when you bulge eat and then induce vomitting. i did not read that you do such a thing, so you might be leading to anorexia.

Well, i think you are suffering from what i used to refer as peer pressure-induced anorexia. Bulimic individuals vomit out ingested food after meals just to get the taste without being subjected to any calorie intake.

What you need to do is trust yourself..Here is a way to gauge your own weight in proportion to height...it is called the Body Mass Index(BMI), doctors often used it to define obesity.

BMI = weight(kg) / [height(m) X height(m)]

For your case, you are 48 kg and around 1.72m which gives you a BMI of 16.1 .

BMI Classification:
Underweight <18
Normal 19 to 24.5
Overweight > 24.5
Obese > 30

So,it is obvious that you are in the category of underweight if your condition persists you might be severely underweight which will bring lots of complications to your health.
Maintaining a balanced diet and conforming to a moderate exercise regime is the key to everything you do.

From now on, use BMI to plan your diets and never ever starve yourself again as this is an irresponsible act..you will upset your family deeply should anything happen to your health in the future.

And let me tell you from the point of guys, i never thought in a moment those skinny female celebrities looked good...just by looking at their figure makes me feel nausea..they looked more like a bunch of living cadavers.
