okay im 14 and im about 5' 2'' and 97 lbs. these guys at school keep calling me anorexic and i want to take it as a compliment but its getting annoying because they always shove food at my table at lunch. i usually dont eat at lunch because im not hungry. (we have lunch early and i eat breakfast) what can i do to make them stop?

thx! (link)
well, this is a sticky situation and it kind of reminds me of myself. last year i had lunch at around 10 30 but i was never hungry! so i would wait until school was over and just eat lunch at home. i was a bit thin too, except i was 16 5' 4'' and about 105 pounds. all of the girls at my lunch table thought i was anoerexic or had some sort of eating disorder...and i wasnt even bony skinnny or anything. i just worked out a lottt and ate healthy. but there was nothing i really could do but constantly tell them i was not anoerexic...i even gained a few pounds not meaning to..just because the comments were getting annoying so i would end up eating when i wasnt hungry and i felt like i constantly needed to be eating around the people who thought i had a problem. not even that worked because they assumed i was bulimic. after all this being said, my best advice is to just ignore the comments and just eat the way that you want and the way that makes you feel comfortable. if anything, theyre probably jealous that they dont look as skinny as you or something. try telling them what really goes on, and they should understand because your lunch must be pretty early...and its your choice when you want to eat. if you are really worried about all of this and you dont want to just ignore it...then maybe you can fool them by bringing in food and just kind of picking at it or just shoving the food around...idk if that the best advice because if they find that out they will have hard evidence that you "have an eating disorder" so i would definatly go with confronting them about this.
