eating diorder/friendship (sry its long)
My friends think that i have an eating disorder which i sort of did. i had thrown up once and tried many times because i felt guilty bout what i ate for instance chocolate cake or candy bar i only did it once but not again cuz its too nasty. I also tried starving myself but almost passed out. I realize those were wrong so now im dieting healthy. Im 14 5,5 or 5,6 im not exactly sure and i weigh 110 i lost 5 pounds so far but cant seem to lose anymore. i cant try on a bikinni without bursting into tears. My friends think im crazy for goin on a diet.they say that i am skinny alrady and dont need to diet They say im too depressed and thati anave a serious problem they reely piss me off sometimes even though they are just trying to help they dont understand how it feels to look in the morror and see a million things wrong. they say that i am skinny alrady and dont need to diet. dieting is hard enough as it is without people trying to shove food down your throat (not literately). is it true that if i eat like 1000 calories a day ill lose wieght cuz the average person burns 1300 so that like a pound a week. well ne way how can i get my point across to my friends. every time i try they say you dont need to lose weight when you are a size one. i definetly dont look like a size one exspecialy not when i wear a bikinni. This is so fucking stupid y dont i just kill myslef and then i wont have to worry bout ne thing! PLEASE DONT DELETE THIS!

I'm definitely not going to delete this because you are probably the only girl out there that I can relate to and I can probably help you out.
We're basically alike. I'm 14 years old, I'm 5'5 1/4, and I weigh 110 pounds. Isn't that a coincidence? I used to not feel comfortable about my body and before I started the 8th grade, the summer of 2004, I tried losing weight. I didn't starve myself, I just ate once a day with a meal that was really small. Yes, I know that's bad but every girl out there hates their body at some point of their life. I was originally 117 pounds and it only took me 3 days to lose 7 pounds, since I barely ate anything. I stopped eating once and started eating healthy and exercising. My friends would always tell me I was skinny and they were just like your friends. People complimented me on my "weight loss" and more guys started noticing me and that made me realize that I'm okay with my body and I shouldn't hurt myself anymore. A few teachers and adults that I was anorexic because I looked so scrawny; you could see my bones and you could take your hand and put it around my whole wrist. Rumors were spread about me that I was anorexic and I stopped them by showing people that I do eat.
I'll stop with my story but I just wanted you to see that I have gone what you are going through right now.
Sweetie, you don't need to diet to lose more weight. You are underweight by 20 pounds, since I weigh the same as you and that's how much I am underweight. I have never heard that eating 1000 calories a day will make you lose weight but if you start eating 500 calories less in a day for a few weeks, then you will lose weight. You really just need to eat healthy and you will lose weight by doing that.
I felt self-conscience about the way I looked in a bikini because my hip bones would stick out and I hated that. Why don't you start exercising? Do some cardio exercises such as running, jogging, running in place, jump roping, etc. Go to your local YMCA and do laps in their pool or go to their workout room and run on a treadmill for 30 minutes.
Once you feel comfortable about the way you look, then your friends will stop nagging on you. You didn't even have an eating disorder in the first place but you were on the path of developing one. Since you're dieting in a healthy way, you should probably schedule an appointment with a nutritionist and he or she will give you some foods to eat and basically a diet that you can go on. Some day, you will feel good, don't worry.
You don't need to be a size one, heck, I'm a size 2 in women's or a 3 in juniors and guys have mentioned to me that I'm too skinny. Being really skinny is a bad thing and since most guys hate it when girls are too skinny, take that in consideration.
Just eat healthy, watch how much you eat, and exercise daily.
My answer is probably out of the line but if you actually read it, you'll understand somehow because I would if you gave me this answer.
