I just want someone to help me. I'm 18 years olds. I weight 105. My height is 5.2 feet. I hate my body. I had anorexia for 3 years and I just get out of a recovery center where they made me gain 25 punds. I was so skinny, and now I'm so fat. I have no friends. My mom keeps saying I'm fat. I really want to be anorexic again and weight what I weighted. Can somebody just tell me their opinion? Am I fat? Is my mom right? Could 5 pounds less look better on me? Please somebody. ↓

| O my. I'm 25 and I've had eating issues all my life. I am 5'10" 121 lbs, I have thought I was fat all my life. What I would do to weigh 110 or 115. But you are tiny!!!! Please! Get away from your insensitive mother. I can not believe she would ever say such a thing. And congratulations on being strong and gaining a few lbs. Its ok to lose 5 or 10 lbs. But one suggestion, move far away from your mother. That is unfair treatment!! It makes me so sad for you. ↑ |

| your mom is crazy! dont let your mom tell you that. a girl that wieghs 105 should not be worried about her wieght. its not healthy. be concerned with you health. your NOT FAT! trust me. 105 just screams skinny. and if skinnyness is what you want you have it. 5 pounds will make things worse, if anything try and gain 5 pounds. ↑ |

| Please Please read a book- a self help book- its the only thing that is going to get you through your childhood with a mother like that. I had an eating disorder for 14 years and still fight it. I have 3 beautiful children, 2 of which a little girls. One is so naturally tiny and petite - the other is built like my husband who is 6'4 250 and his bones are so huge- I swear his ribs are the size of my forearms. With a bone structure like this I'm so afraid my little girl is going to have problems comparing herself to her sister. It is so weird how different they are without any real influence since they are 2 and 4. The four year old literally wants salad if we go to mcdonalds- with chicken- the 2 year old would have a big mac if she could. I get so scared that my past disorder will begin reflecting on them. I just want so badly to be a loving nurturing mother- my goal is to give them so much confidence in themselves that NO ONE will be able to tear down that shell of reassurance. Regina I wish so badly that you had been my daughter- you wouldn't have even been in here asking that question. When I was 18 I thought I was fat too. I think there isn't a girl on this planet that is 18 and thinks her body is perfect. Its part of growing up. 10 years from now I swear on my children- that you will be looking back at the pictures you have of yourself right now- at 105 -and think- what I would do for that body! How could I ever have thought I was fat then?...be happy and satisfied with yourself. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder- go visit a childrens ward in the hospital. See little children receiving chemo therapy. Ask them if they are worried about their weight- better yet- ask them if they think you are fat. I bet they would look at you - and would do anything in this world to look like you. Rise above your mothers comments. She is just jealous that you have such strength- and she was probably either really fat when she was 18 or really skinny and unhappy- and is trying to relive her youth through you. Next time she says that to you- just say thanks- and walk away. Be the better person. Maybe she will learn a thing or two from you- if she hasn't already! ↑ |

| you are not fat, if your mom says your fat its because she hasent seen you or is jelouse of you. and standing at 5.2ft and wieghing your weicht may make you look fat, but you arnt, heck... i am almost 6 foot and weight almost 200 pounds. ↑ |

| you are NOT fat. Actually, 105 pounds for your height is still on the thin side.However, you may feel fat because you are used to being emaciated. instead of triing to lose again, why not do some strenght training to firm up you muscles? Just a thought... ↑ |

| How ignorant of your mother to say such a thing, especially since she is aware that you had a problem. I can tell you that I have never been overweight and right now I weigh 120 and I feel so incredibly fat. Im 34 years old, 5.4 and I have allways struggled with these feelings. Other people compound your feelings about yourself. Everytime I look in a magazine I see these girls like Nicole Ritchie and I want to be like that, but at the same time I know she is anorexic. You aren't alone and you need a support group or a good friend to talk to. ↑ |

| Ladies, please don't feed into the hype about thin being sexy or attractive. it's all about your health. I used ot have an eating disorder but as soon as i found out i was pregnant, that went right out of the window. i would in no way harm my baby...i care about my body too much. please look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are beautiful...please see the beauty in your faces...PLEASE don't let anyone tear you down.....you are all beautiful... ↑ |

| Don't let anyone change you.. tell yourself that your body is just fine and no one needs to tell you differnet ... being anorexia is not a good thing ... many people die from it every year .Being anorexia can cause depression and that wouldn't do u much good ethier just write down all the things to like about ur body ... like maybe its ur smile or ur hair anything.. and make sure that you relize no one is perfect and my body is me. ↑ |

I think I can help you. Im 14 years old. I know im younger then u and all but i have alot of common sence. And i know what your going through. I was 128 lbs. now i am 103. My hip bones stick out, my ribs, my everything! My mother once told me, I should loose some weight. My brother called me chubs as a joke. So i lost weight. i lost 25 lbs. and i didnt do it the healthy way. My boyfriend hates the way I look, my friends hate how I am, and i hate myself. Im so happy for you that you got over anorexia. I really am. becuause I would give ANYTHING to get over mine. I still think im fat, as little as everyone says I am. I feel fat. but my clothes keep getting bigger, and the scale keeps going down. My dance teacher told me she hates seeing me kill myself. KILL MYSELF! now when i started this I never thought about it. But dont get sick again. I care about u even tho i dont know u. You can die from this! Its not a glamorus life style, it sucks. I want my boyfriend to be able to take me out to eat, I want to pig out with my friends. I want to be happy again and normal again, and i dont want to be known as the really skinny anorexic girl in school anymore. do u really want to do that to yourself?!?! think about it. please think about it. and please save yourself. ya dont want to die. please. hope i could have been a help.
Peace.love.hope

| 5 pounds more would look better. Girl Eat! Everybody hates their body every now and then, but you need to except the real you, and if you are 110+ be happy with it. You can eat, exercise and still be skinny without startving yourself. I am 5 months pregnant and I only weigh 125, love yourself ↑ |

| I'm 18 too and recovering from 70 lbs. I also had to gain alot. But i;d rather that then die! Don't listen to your mom. you are not fat. you are actually underweight according to the medical charts. Tell your mom to go jump in a lake. Go talk to a therapist before you go back to anorexia. YOU DO NOT WANT IT. Otherwise you wouldn't be wanting our opinions. We are all here for you. Don't listen to negative comments. (Also, my first time in the ed unit they wouldn't let me out till i was 110 and i'm your height) ↑ |

| The trick is to love yourself in life no matter what Regina. The best way to do this is to start keeping agreements. Make a tiny one with yourself for the coming week. Make it something that will make you feel special. I recommend picking up 10 pieces of litter a day as a starter. As you do it realise you are one of the only poeple who is trying to make a difference, most peole would just ignore that litter but you ae doing something positive to improve your society. Keep rigidly to your agreement and you will start to trust your word. Every time you keep your agreement you will become more trusting of yourself and your ability to do whatever task you set yourself. Then you will be powerful. Powerful women are attractive whatever size they are. You are so hung up on the weight thing and believe me you can be as skinny as you like and people might not like you. If you have power and integrity then you are someone and other people will be drawn to you. Give it a go. It works. www.isaexperience.com ↑ |

You are definitely NOT FAT!!!!
I wish I could meet your mom and slap her upside her head....
Please contact the recovery center you attended and let them know of your current situation. They should be able to direct you and your mother on the path to good physical and mental health (for your mom...she needs it) ↑ |

| there are so many more important things in life to worry about! i mean come on you are worried about 5 lousy lbs??girls today think that being underweight is sexy, its so sad they dont realize that being healthy and eating a drinking is what lifes about.and of course excersize. but life is too short to be so worried about loosing 5lbs!! and your mother has serious issues if she really says things like that to her daughter.!! ↑ |

I know that this might sound realyy stupid to you, but I think that you are very lucky. I would do a lot to be you. You are eighteen, and you weight only 105 pounds? I'm only 13 and i weigh like 128 pounds. I always feel like i'm going to die, because i'm so fat. You are so lucky. Be happy, and i think that five pounds wouldn't make you look too much better, maybe you should just keep on doing what your doing, and try not to worry so much about it.
-You are soo lucky. ↑ |

| I am 29yrs old. I was skinny all of my life until I turned 22. Now I have been overweight for 7 yrs. I used to weigh 115 and now I weigh 216. I always thought I was fat but now I know what fat is . I have not doubt that you are beautiful just as you are. Your mother should offer support not critisizm. So to answer your question no you are not fat and no your mother is not right!!! ↑ |

Regina,
I'm 5'2'' just like you I'm 130 I feel fat but I don't want to hurt my body, sometimes I want to become anorexic and sometimes I eat just a little bit. My opinion, don't let others run your life, my friends tell me I'm fat!! Most of the time I feel happy with my body, but sometimes I hate it! Life is not easy but there's something very important your confidence in your self and you'll accept your body. Don't hurt yourself, I hear a lot of my friends talking about me, but yeah, they will not live my life! I'm the one in charge! Regina society does put a lot of pressure on us to be skinny! But think about your health more than your looks. LIfe is harsh sometimes but we need to learn how to deal with things we can't change- society want skinny girls, but I want you to be healthy and learn to love your body don't hate it, i know sometimes is hard. Wish the best! ↑ |
