Sometimes... I feel so chubby.

Well, like most young teenagers, I'm obsessed with my weight and staying healthy. Actually, it's not exactly my weight... It's just that I look kind of fat. I'm 14 years old... I stand at 5' 1" and I weigh just about 105 pounds... I never thought that I was over-weight (but am I?)... It's just I look fatter than how much I really weigh. Is that even normal? Does that even make sense?(o.O) My friends are always telling me I look fine and that I'm "skinny" but I know they're just saying that so I won't feel bad. A lot of my friends weigh more than me and are taller than me... but they look more... normal. Sometimes I just think I'm insecure... or something... Should I exercise more often? Should I try to lose just a little weight? Or am I just going crazy?

Thanks... (link)
You aren't fat! What is going on is all mental. This is how so many eating disorders start!
Stop telling yourself that you are chubby because after a while you'll really believe it (maybe you do now). Just tell yourself that it's not important, and that your friends don't care (since they think you are fine already). You are perfectly healthy, don't be obsessed about your chubbyness. If your thoughts continue, talk to someone or get help. :)
