eating problems
I had had an eating disorder on and off for 7 years. Right now i am 5'6 and 105 and im 18 and i just turned 18. i really to lose weight.. maybe only like 5lbs. I know from my height and weight, i sound thin, but i do have a couple pounds i could lose. Im not one of those people who thinks theyre enormous when they aren't, but i really want to lose weight. What do you guys think?

Listen, iknow what your going through. You said it yourself that you have an eating disorder. If you didn't say that I might be yelling (well, over the computer) to you saying that you should gain weight instead of loose it. But you have an eating disorder.. and i can't just tell you to eat, or not exercise or I can't tell you anything really. I know what your going through/ been through. Listen though, don't loose any more weight. I bet your body fat is like, 15 and your probably a twig. The lbs you "think" you need to loose are necessary.. for fricking living. You need a little fat. I hate it too, but trust me, you need it. If you think you want to loose weight, then work out with strength training. Build muscle! Trustttt meeee, you'll look super jacked and really slim, and you'll gain healthy weight. Weight gain is not as bad as it , sounds, (again, I know) so hide the scale. You should never weight yourself everyday, never. I mean, if your mother or family knows you have an eating disorder they should hide the scale from you. It's not good. My best advice is to stop weighting youself, eat what you want, and do strength workouts to gain muscle. Please don't be like, "whatever this girl doesn
t know anything I'm not listening to her" and don't get mad at what im saying because I do understand what your going through and I'm trying to hel as much as I can. hope this helped, happy holidays!

you're actually pretty underweight. you really shouldn't lose weight because that would be really unhealthy, but you probably feel, idk, not toned? so to tone up and gain muscle which actually helps burn fat, you should do things like crunches, lunges, maybe running, use dumbels, stuff like that. it will make you feel more defined and look better.

lets just say you weigh less than me, im shorter, and younger. Im not overweight either.

Why not instead of trying to lose weight, just try to tone your body a little. Stop weighing yourself, instead, look at your body in the mirror. Also remember that you are your own worst critic.

I think you are underweight. Even with a small frame the least amount you should weigh is 120.
Here is a chart for you. :)
