I don't know if I am fat?? But I feel and think I'm fat. I'm 5'4 and weigh 87 pounds. I have made myself throw up before, but I have tried to stop myself. I ry to eat as little as possible but one time I didnt eat at all and I fainted on a school fieldtrip. I am terribly scared to gain weight. I play soccer and basketball and my friends are like you are skinny and you need to gain weight since you play sports. I could never let myself gain weight I want to lose weight. I haven't started my period and I'm almost 14. Can someone please help me!

Don't become anorexic because of that! You are not fat it is usual for teens like us to feel fat or even be fat but u will eventually be skinny
I suffer from depression and the worst thing to do is to make ur disorder a habit

Christine, Melissa, what ever happaned to being kids! Try not to worry about your weight, I know how hard it is as I have been bulimic for over 2years now and although I am begining to recover now it has still created a huge hole in my life. You need to talk to someone close to you, this will seem impossible now as it did to me at first. But I tlaked it through with my fiancee and I was persuaded into counselling witch has helped a lot. You may not have a full blown eating disorder now, but the way you are going you will have. Please please get some help from someone you trust, there is annother way! xx

I'm also about your age. I had been Bulimic and Anorexic. You NEED to get help. Talk to your parents, your friends, a teacher, coach, SOMEONE. This could kill you...you know that right? Do you really wanna die right now knowing that you died due to being scared you were fat?...you are NOT fat. You are a twig..honestly babe. Come on! Stop worrying about what you look like-the world isn't staring at you! You need to realize that this life isn't about being skinny and thin, it's about living it up and being the best you can be...and how are you gonna do that by starving yourself? and purging?...talk to someone. They'll listen. They care.

You are underweight. I am in the same kind of situation i am underweight but think i'm fat. i am also scared of gaining weight. I know it is a hard time but you really need to try to eat. i am under the hospital and if i lose any more weight i will end up in hosptial which i don't wish on anybody. The reasons you haven't started your periods yet is because your body isn't getting the stuff it needs.

I was in the same predicament as you. At 68 pounds, I was more dead then alive. While all my friends were on senior trip, iwas being rushed to the intensive care unit. after many ed units, i am finally o nthe road to recovery. I am recovering because i wanted to and wanted my life back. if you really want to recover, you have to make the first step by askinf for help. I have also not regained my period yet- my doc said i may never. YOu are a young, beautiful girl, with everything going for you. Get help, honey- you don;t want to end up dead by the time you're 16

Only the vain controling guys even care about thier girls wheight so try not to worrie about it the very worst thing you can do is develop a ED belive me i have seen at least 50 guys and they go though G/Fs like nothing

the people that you are trying to impress are the people that DONT CARE the ones that do care are the ones you are isolateing from knowing you...... it makes no sence if you dont want to be alone then this may sound different but go ask a guy out if you want to go out if he says no he ether A) has a G/F B) is too shalow or C) he doesnt want a GF or date or whatever

if you want to email me my email is

You shouldn't worry about the period thing, i started mine around your age,and about getting fat thing you shouldn't care anbout that neighther, if you are in any sports,you wont gain any weight because you exercise and thats just like sort of you are throwing it out exept the vitamines you need.Thats advise from a 16 year old.well take care.

Hi, i been in your position. Grade 8/9 right? Yeh, when i was anorexic, which you are..if you are scared to gain weight and dont eat, which i did. I was the exact same height as you, and weighed a 110 pounds and was heavy into sports. I wouldnt eat some days and lied to my mom about eating, and finally it caught up to me, i fainted running a 800m race. You may have not gotten your period because of the lack of nutrition. I had gotten mine, but when i stopped eating and i didnt have a period for over a year. Just eat right,and keep up the sports, but dont try to lose weight you are still growing, eat heathly.

You're most likely have anorexia of the binge/purge type. People often mistake this for bulimia, but it is anorexia. The earlier this disease is caught, the more effectivly it can be treated. IPLEASE GET HELP NOW!!! YOU CAN'T DO IT ON YOUR OWN!!!

You are worth your weight in gold - losing doesn't make sense. I'm sorry no one has ever told you that.

Christine there is no way that you need to worry about your weight you should just be happy with who you are and you should accept yourself for the way that god made you. Stop trying to kill your yourself with the foolish things that you hear and the things that you are doing to your body. You are beautiful and you should always remember that. Don't listen to what people say to you it is what you think of yourself and no one else. You don't want to end up with anorexia or bulimia and cause yourself to die, stay just the way you are and don't let no one change who you are.

dont worry about it in my school there are alot ov overweight people they get called names by some people but by others they get seen as nice people the fattest girl in our school is the most populer so its what is inside anyway you might have something else that is good about you like a pretty face or nice hair or something special about you whatever you do dont try and puke your food up after meals you will get edicted and become to thin and very ill

Hi Christine. You have a BMI of 15. At 14 years old that is quite low, and may explain why you have not started your periods. It's hard to accept, but you probably find it hard to see whether your friends are bigger or smaller than you because your ED is tellling you how you feel, rather than "Christine".

It's not too late to do something about this, but as great and supportive as this site is, you need a real person and a professional person to help you. They will not judge you and will not criticise you, but they will listen and help you. You need help on getting in touch with your body and how it feels, and you need help in improving your intake of food. With some help with your thoughts and feelings, and some "brain food" going around in your blood, you will find it easier to think about things.

I am currently working with a number of girls your age going through the same thing, for each of them it is a different journey, but the destination remains the same. Talk to someone you trust and get help .. go on .. you can do it!


Name: SAME PROBLEM!!! | Date: Jan 17th, 2006 5:47 PM
my friends say the same thing to me and i have the same problem im now moving rapidly towards being bulimic and as for your period all girls get them at different times if your really worried you should talk to a mum, sister or even your GP b4 your condition gets really serious

Hi Christine. I just wanted to tell you, when i was 16 i was 5'2" and weighed 87 lbs. I thought i was fat and wanted to drop down to 78 lbs. Then my heart stopped. I was hospitalized and my doctors told me that if I didn't gain weight and begin eatting that I would be dead in 2 weeks. Doctors say that when a girl hits her teenage years that she should weigh 100lbs. if she's 5' and 5lbs. more for every inch over 5'. I don't want to scare you but being underweight for significant periods of time will permanetly damage you. If you want to be healthy and skinny then eat more vegatables, fruits. Less junk food, don't drink pop. Eat protein for breakfast and you will become a healthy weight that is perfect for your body. If you ever want to talk feel free to email me @ [email protected]

OK CHRISTINE HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. YOU NO ITS NOT OK THAT YOU HAVENT STARTED YOUR PERIOD . I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR YOU DO YOU WANT TO BE A WOMAN?? IN ORDER TO BE MTURED IN THAT AREA IT TAKES BODY FAT. THERE IS GOOD FAT TOO AND AS LONG AS YOU EAT GOOD SMALL MEALS EVERY 2 1/2 HRS. YOU WILL NEVER BE FAT OR TOO SKINNY AND YOUR PERIOD WILL START AND THEN YOU WILL MATURE. I SUFFERED FROM AN EATING DISORDER FOR MANY YEARS BUT WILL POWER AND THE ABILITY NOT TO NIT PICK AT WHAT YOUR PUTTING IN YOUR MOUTH , YOU CAN FIGHT THIS AND LOOK BACK AND SAY I DID IT THIS IS WHO I AM . 87 POUNDS IS UN HEALTHY BUT ITS NOT TOO LATE TO CHANGE YOUR WAYS BEFOR YOUR BODY BECOMES TOO SERIOUSELY DAMAGED. BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER DONT LET YOUR PEERS SEND YOU TO YOUR OWN FUNERAL.
