people call you anorexic probably because you worry about your weight so much or you eat so little. and also there's nothing wrong with you, a lot of girls worry about their weight and it's perfectly normal.
ok so here's some tips to help you lose weight...
1) avoid fatty foods or junk foods (eat like vegetables and fruits, food that's good for you) try dieting
2) exercise regularly. do like 10 pushups every morning and night. trust me, that does make a difference, plus you have PE during the school day.
3) see the doctor for these pills, i forgot what they're called but they like help you lose weight
also 20 pounds overweight isn't that bad. you aren't fat, you're just a bit chubby, which is fine. also going anorexic or w/e isn't going to help, like eating only an apple a day or throwing up. those just make your body worse, and plus it likes makes you depressed and stuff. good luck!!
