ever since i was 10, (i'm 13 now) i've constantly been working toward losing weight. i would constantly weight myself, keeping track of how much i lost, or how much i gained. if i gained, i would cut back on my eating a little bit, and exercising as much as i could. toward the end of 5th grade this slowed down a little bit...and i finally realized in the summer before 7th that i had gained more weight than i shouldve. i couldnt handle it. i constantlycompared myself to other girls my age, and i needed to lose weight. by this time i was 110 pounds, 13 years old. i confided slowly in some close friends, about wanting to lose weight and they shrugged off my comments...telling me i was one of the most beautiful girls they knew..and i was a perfect size...big boobs, flat stomach. right. sometimes the person i see in the mirror almost makes me sick. so about a month ago i started throwing up after desserts at dinner, about once a week when i felt i needed it. do i have an eating disorder?
It sounds like you may have.
Please talk to your parents/guardian and/or doctor. It sounds like you may need some help.
Good luck! |
