I am 14 years old, 66 inches tall, and I weigh 127 pounds. I'm large-framed, too. Very much so. Technically I'm slightly underweight, or very underweight if you take into consideration that I have 13% body fat and I am as strong as my Dad. I workout for one to two hours 5 times a week, and do some form of exercise (mostly vigorus) with my friends and/or family every day. I am also one of the biggest health-freaks I've ever seen. I rinse off pickles, read nutrition facts for fun, and think of iced tea as a treat.
Nearly all of the people I know have called me skinny minnie, super-skinny, or a tad too skinny at least once. 3/4 of the people I know have said I'm just right, perfectly shaped, or very fit/muscular multible times. Now, there is this lady at chuch that is always telling me stuff like "You have such a pretty face, you'd be so pretty if you lost some weight". It is really hard to ignore her, and I want to try and gain a pound or two without being harrassed each Sunday. Help?

Mike-Thanks, but I'm already am intensely healthy. I work out every day and I'm a health freak, I also have gotten many praises from doctors/parametics/dietitions in my circle of friends and family.

No matter how pretty you are, there is always someone who will be there to nitpick. Pay no heed to this lady, as she is obviously too worried about herself to let you feel good. You are wonderful the way you are, and don't have to prove anything to anyone else. Take care!

she doesnt know what she is talking about, have you looked at her?? try to shake it off, you should try to ignore it which can be hard but you could also say "i like my face" or "why?" or "im quite comfortable with my body thank you" if you ask her a powerful question like that, or make a statement like that, she might be taken back and realize what she is saying to you and how it makes you feel. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself, you could also say: "oh really? because people call me skinny minnie" good luck!!!!

Trust the people closest to you like your family. they will tell the truth. Also be careful not to just focus on the lady from your church telling you your overweight, thats just one person compard to many other people telling you you look good.

i would actually turn round in church infront of alot of ppl and say at the top of yr voice "just tell me im fat in front of all these ppl lady" this will totally freak her out and she will never say it again. im sure most of the ppl at church will tell you yr a good size and the thing is yr still growing so i wouldnt worry

certainly the middle of the video is the full video! this sort of spanish isn't that previous, i think of it is been changed to the actually spanish. you could examine on the cyber web if there´s a replica of that textual content textile in english, and that must be easier.

This may be mean but next time she says this tell her, " It's probably the person behind me that's making me look larger", and when she questions this or says that she sees no one behind you say, "Satan get behind me, in the name of Jesus....now do you see someone behind me?'
