But everyone that has called you little arn't lying, you look great. But Don't punish yourself because someone else doesnt eat the same as you do. But if still feel self consciouse about your body go to seventeen.com and look at the body peace thing. or workout more. but you look fine. Muscel (idk how to spell it) weighs more then fat! :D
shortshortSHORT answered Sunday June 15 2008, 9:38 am: you definately don't look your weight that's for sure. I'd say you look around 150-165? somewhere in that range and this is because you work out alot and have a lot of muscle. muscle weighs more and looks leaner than fat.
they're probably not lying when they call you thin because even though you aren't model thin, you're thin in the real world. the average size for woman is 8-10.
also, you should never purge for a day because it severely slows down your metabolism. you have a lot of muscle which means your metabolism works faster than that of someone who has very little muscle.
basically, i wouldn't worry about your weight. you look beautiful the way you are and its not about your bmi, so don't listen to her becuase it doesn't take into consideration your percent body fat. its purely based on weight and height. you look completely fine and no where near fat, so don't stress and just be happy the way you are.

ie. Weight (kg)/[height (m)]2
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
