anorexic?


Question Posted Wednesday July 20 2005, 11:39 am

julie,
okay, in my heart i know that i am a very fit girl- i play soccer, basketball, and run all the time. but no matter what i still think im fat. i limit myself to 500 calories a day and am an excercise freak. its starting to get worse and i dont know what to do!! nothing is ever enough for me. ill say just another pound just another pound but then when that happens i think thats not enough just one more!!i know this is dangerous and i know its getting even more so but i cant make myself stop and eat normal meals or even eat at all. im afraid of being anorexic but im even more afraid of people thinking im fat. julie, please help.

awwwwwwwww. ok well that's pretty bad. you NEED to stop doing this to yourself or you could end up in the hospital. funny thing is, average & skinny girls think they're fat. fat people don't give a care, which is probably why they're fat. but has anyone told you you were fat? because by what you say, it doesn't sound like it. look i think i`m fat sometimes when i look at my stomach in the mirror, but i know i`m not. i had a problem like you. i barely ate, but hah i stayed away from the exercise like usual. i kept weighing myself every single day! pounds mattered way too much for me. until finally my mom took away my scale. it helped loads. now & then i still say i`m fat, but most teenagers do. just not many obsess over it. which is what you can't do. because too fat or too skinny is unhealthy. you could die from going too far on either. you NEED to stop. you need to believe you're skinny. you need to take a deep breath & believe in yourself. don't think of food as gaining pounds, think of it as something to keep you healthy. i mean it's ok to eat healthy, but to not eat at all is just wrong. & also, if you're too skinny people will talk about you the same way they talk about fat people. "oh that anorexic girl, she scares me. i can even see her bones. it creeps me out." don't let what others think of you bring you down. build up self-esteem & go by what's right for you. i stopped. you can too. hope i helped.
♥ Julie
