I don't want to brag, I just want to tell the truth. I am thin for my age and height. Every morning, I wake up and go to the bathroom, and my stomach is really sucked in. I like it because I look skinny. Then I eat until it is pushed out to a certain point, then I won't eat for the rest of the day so that my stomach will go back down. I just drink tons of water that just flushes out of my body the next morning, and I eat little things like a box of raisins or a bag of kettle corn, which are only about 100 calories each, so they don't really do anything.

Is this unhealthy or is this normal? Everyone calls me skinny. Half of me says "You are skinny. Don't worry about eating", and the other half says "You are fat and ugly. Look at your stomach. You just ate 2 slices of pizza". I feel guilty after eating large portions.

So is this normal or not, and if it isn't, what advice do you have for me?

Thank you. I'm 17, 5'9", 115 pounds.

Ugh...For a girl of 17 you should be able to think for yourself...

You're on the way to an eating disorder. If these eating behaviors of yours started within the past 6 months, expect to be diagnosed with anorexia within the next 4 months. I'd say that once you get to around 105(just an estimate) you can get diagnosed with anorexia

Girls who suffer from eating disorders or are going to develop one soon don't think logically. I'm not trying to be an asshole here, I'm just stating the truth. So since you can't think logically, you don't realize that being 115 and 5 9 is severely underweight and those who call you fat are just making fun of you and your (lack of) eating habits.

It's not normal. I suggest you start eating healthier, try to get in at least 1500 calories day an exercise. Try doing cross country next year or track? Eating healthy and exercising will make you a lot happier than starving yourself and getting diagnosed with anorexia and hospitalized.
