Am I overdoing it?
I just turned 14. I'm about 5'5 and weigh about 105 lbs. I feel I am fat for some reason even though I wear extra smalls and zero's in clothing and everything. Everyone thinks I am very tiny but I don't see myself that way. Because I feel I am fat I try to do 200 crunches a day along with running for about a half hour. Is there anything else I can do to loose weight and just tone up more? I also don't eat much. Like for maybe a couple days a month I'll eat like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But all the rest of the time I usually only eat a small breakfast and that's it. Am I over doing the whole weight loss thing? Everyone has been yelling at me and saying I am overdoing it and I really want to know if I am. Please help and answer. Is my weight ok for my height and age? I both cheerlead and run track and want to make sure I am skinny cause for some reason I feel people won't like me otherwise. Can someone please give me some advise and help on the situation? Thanks. *Love Always Annonomous*

Maybe give some free advice about: ?
i am close to ur age and i weigh 110 pounds, also 5'2. i do as many sports as possible. swimming, horseback riding, softball and soccer. my advice is to eat more and work out more. this way u even it out and still have a nice body. these days you dont want to be too thin. it saddened me when i heard u say u only have one small breakfast. thats very dangerous. you need 3 balanced meals a day. try eating powerbars. you dont need to lose weight to have a nice body. just get a nice 4-6 pack and some muscle. (guys go for it ;);) wink wink!) take up a sport or two, something ur good aT. if ppl only like u cause ur skinny, then they arent ur friends. thats rediculus. you weight is good for ur height and age, and actually could be heavier. please have 3 balanced meals a day, otherwise if could be dangerous.
glad i could help!

I'm tempted to think you're both a little underweight, and kind of overdoing it. I don't think you need to worry about your weight, or your diet.
If you overdo the excercise, it is possible to make yourself sick.
Check your Body Masss Index (I think). I used to know a site, but I can't remember.
I can tell you're a stick without seeing you. Sometimes it's good to have curves instead of angles. I mean, I'm 16. I'm about 5'3.5" and I weigh 112, but I have a great figure (if I do say so myself, lol).
You're still growing. If you don't have extra body fat on you, where's it gonna go when you stretch out (tallwise/widthwise, etc)?
Don't worry too much about fitting the "model thin" stereotypical "perfect" body type. Everyone thinks I'm, like, really skinny, but I'm not. I'm at a good weight for my height and age.
You generally look skinnier than you really are. Not sure why, but it's true. Keep that in mind.
Hope I helped!

Your not fat or overweight and you are overdoing it! Sorry, but sometimes the truth hurts! Just eat healthy and stop excersising that much! Excersising is good, but you need enegry! Energy comes from food.

i dont have much, but i think you are over doing it, i'd add some more healthy food otherwise you could get really sick :-0

You are overdoing it a little. Not with the exercising but if your exercising that much you need to consume enough calories to keep your body running. If you dont your metabolism will slow down.

Your very skinny for your age.Fuck what people think..You only have one chance to live with the body you have so keep it..If you get to skinny you could get sick..That's what happened to me..

Your very underweight... your supposed to be like 20 pounds more then what you are!!!! And about you only usually eating breakfast.. thats crazy.. If your doing all these exercises and not gaining muscle its because muscle needs to eat. It eats more then fat does!!! If your going to be so active then you need to have all 3 meals and snack regularly... thats the best way to stay in shape and be healthy. I think your over-doing it....Make sure you eat a good breakfast in the morning with a banana because that gives you energy for the day. Also eat lunch and dinner... and snacks.. but if you are afraid of gaining weight.. then snack and eat healthy.. Snack on Apples... Bananas .. Oranges ((fruits with nutrients)) Or..veggies and low fat dip. And for lunch you could have salads sandwhiches Grilled Chicken.. etc. Just because you eat doesnt mean your fat.. you just have to make the best choices..

Yes,you're fine. I really have no clue why you're so insecure about your weight. You run track and cheerlead so you're in good shape. Quit worrying about your weight. That should be the least of your problems. Another thing is when you don't eat your metabolism slows down. So by not eating,you're just slowing your bodily functions down.

Well from wat im seein iz that ur overdoing it a lil 2 much! U r perfect for you age. U shouldnt put ur self through pain n stuff cuz ur fine just tha way u r! Az long as you eat riight n everything then u will be in good shape! U r not fat n dont even think bout it!

Well, I do think you are overdoing the whole weight loss thing. I think you are fine for your height and weight. You are not fat whatsoever. First off, you need to eat 3 meals a day but you can watch your calorie intake and you'll be fine. If you need snacks, fruits and veggies are good. You can eat a lot of that and be fine since that is so healthy. Also, for exercises, crunches are good but if it hurts too much to do 200 then you shouldn't do so many but it sounds like you get plenty of exercise with cheerleading and running track so that's good. Just be careful!! I hope this helps!

so for, it sounds like you are. ik how this is exactly, because i still struggle with my weight. i have had anorexia for 2 years, and it sucked. everyone told me how skinny i was, but i just saw something totally different. you are realy underweiht right now tho, even if you dont feel it. excersise is good and everything, but not if you are eating really little. this messes up your metabolism too. i encourage you to eat 5 small meals a day, or 3 meals with snacks. drink fluids and trust the ppl that say you are tiny. u prob dont believe them, but just try to and you will start to see it yourself. learn to love your body for who you are, and do not compare it to anyone else's. the ppl who r yelling at you are only doing this becuz they care about you, they did that to me too and all i could think was "i hate them. they are taking away my control. dont they want me to be happy?" i am not sure but u could have anorexia, too. you do have some signs of it so if u want u should c a nutritionist or doctor or something. slowly start to eat on a regular basis, instead of different each week. i am positive you are FINNEE the way you are! i am 5'1 and now that i have recovered and everything i am supposed to weigh 105. and u r 5'5 and weigh that much. i dont know how much i weigh now tho, and its better that way. try not to check the scale as often and insince you cheelead and do track you need to eat becuz it gives u energy. ppl will like you no matter what, i bet u r a great person and everyone can c that. dont worry about being skinny or anything, guys even say they like girls with more meat on their bones. i wish you good luck and hope all goes well. if u need ne thing else just leave something in my inbox.
love,

i think that at this point u shouldn't worry bout ur weight b/c u're only 14 yrs old n u have alot more growin 2 do, so stop tryin 2 loose weight. it's not helpin n later on it could really catch up 2 u, so just calm dwn n live life 2 the fullest!!

You sound healthy.. but its not good to skip meals.. you should eat every meal every day, have small portions and no snacks in between but in your case you are almost too skinny and you may want to even gain weight! you can still workout and stuff... but dont overdo it.. you wear 0's and weigh less then normal for your age... you should probably be around 120ish since your tall and 14...
hope i helped!

Hey Annonomous*
I think that yOu should take yOur friends advice and stop thinking yOur fat!!! yOu must have an awsome body to be that skinny... 105 lbs??? That is what I wished I weaighed... I am now 15 and I wiegh 110. I know yOu are skinnny... I am only 5'4 but still... I know if yOu are skinny or not. If yOu were are trying to do 200 crunches and yOu cant do them maybe its because yOu should start out with a little amount of crunches and let the crunches get easier and yOur amount yOu do will grow... Please dont try anything that might hurt yOu. Lyk gettin sick after yOu eat and stuff... I hope I helped a little bit. >*Keep In Touch!-Really!

You're weight is fine for your height and age. I wouldn't worry about looking fat, especially if everyone says that you're not. You also cheerlead and run, so what you think is fat may be muscle. (muscle weighs more than fat) You should eat more on a regular basis...(regular meals help to increase ur metabolism and burn fat faster. If the people that you want to like you only like you based on your looks, thats not a very good group of friends. Good friends like a person for who they are, not what they look like or what they wear. If you can learn to love yourself for who you are, you will gain self confidence and that is a very attractive quality. Hope I helped! - runawaygirl
