Answer 1

OMG those people are crazy you are sooo not fat omg i wish i was your size, i would just ignore them, they're jelous or just doing it to make you feel bad. But if you show that it doesn't bother you they might stop it worked for MY friend (not the same scenario but sort-of) I'd just ignore them you know where you stand you're definatly not fat, and if you wanna prove that to yourself look up weight charts for teen on like www.google.com if you really don't feel good about your weight talk to someone, i know its perfectly normal but if you wanna be sure look up the charts or ask your doctor. Those stupid kids don't know what they're talking about!...HOPE THEY STOP (i'll pray for ya)


P.S.~ DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF please please don't i mean it can lead to serious concequences, disease death, just ignore them don't take it any farther, member they'll stop eventually...after high school you won't even see them. and they mgiht not be in your lunch block next year either...thats all for now

Answer 2

Guys are full of you know what . . . and probably really think you are cute and petite which you are at your height and weight.
I would not worry at all. Just make sure you get enough exercise every day and eat a good balanced diet and take a good multivitamin. This is important for everyone and you will be healthy, happy and not fat. Do not listen to what people say to you. Be happy with yourself and ignore the remarks. Do not starve yourself but eat lots of salads and fruit to fill yourself up and a go easy on the carbs and fat. Make sure you get enough protein. You are a growing girl.

Answer 3

1. DON'T "try just not eating" -- that is REALLY BAD for your body.
2. Eat more often, but make it a small healthy snack. That will keep you from eating so much at lunch time and your body will make better use of what you do eat. (There are some that theorize that not eating when you are hungry sort of makes your body react like a bear getting ready to hibernate -- you will crave a lot of food that you don't really need because your body has been conditioned to think you are going to starve it.)
3. I doubt that everyone in your class calls you fat.

Answer 4

I hope you are seeing how obvious it is to everyone who reads your question that you ARE NOT FAT. I can tell that these guys at school have really gotten to you. Unfortuately teenagers often handle their own insecurities by tormenting other kids, and it is frequently the sensitive, nice kids who get targeted. These kids are probably enjoying making you upset, and if you continue to reward them by getting upset (and showing them that you're upset), they will very likely continue to escalate their cruelty. Since school must have just started, I'm guessing that this has only happened for a short period of time. Shut them down by ignoring them, doing things that make you feel good, taking good care of yourself, appreciating yourself and finding friends who appreciate who you are. It won't be worth it to these guys to attack you if it doesn't appear to be upsetting you.

It is also possible to come up with responses that can shut people down, where you turn their attacks around on them and you make them look like the idiots they are. Some people find it helpful to be able to respond that way, but some people just can't do that, even in the face of cruelty. In any case, plan some strategies for dealing with these situations so that they won't catch you off guard and get you visibly upset. Talk to some people in your life (friends, siblings, parents, school counselor, etc.) and have them help you come up with these strategies. But, most of all, do NOT take what they are saying to heart, and please do NOT diet. It would be so awful if this caused you to develop an eating disorder. (You should probably listen to Christina Aguilera's song "Beautiful." She wrote that song because she was tormented by other kids in High School.)

If your strategies don't shut them down for some reason, and the tormenting continues for awhile, I think you (or your parents) should let the school know about it. Especially if it is happening frequently and is involving many students, it qualifies as bullying and harrassment, and it should not be tolerated by the school. These days schools are getting worried about these types of things, and they are tending to intervene if it gets serious. You need to know that adults understand that teenagers can be extremely cruel for no reason, and that it can be very painful and damaging to those who are targeted. It's really NOT OK for this to go on.

I hope this and the other answers help you, and that you can start believing in,and feeling good about, yourself.

Answer 5

Ignore them! Their just insecure jerks who've got nothing better to do. Learn to love yourself the way you are, don't let their comments affect you. And definitely whatever you do don't stop eatting, eatting disorders will ruin your life, trust me on that one.
P.S. 5'0" and 100 is not fat by a long shot sweetie!

Answer 6

I don't understand why they would call you fat as you are obviously not fat in the slightest. They are obviously just being nasty to try to get a reaction, just try not to let it get to you. Maybe they say it because you have commented at some point tha tyou think you are fat? If people are aware of your insecurities, the nasty ones will play on them and make you feel bad. Just ignore them or make a nasty comment back to them. HTH.

Answer 7

I think that if you feel you have a problem you should fix it but if you are happy with your body just leave it be. if a bunch of freshman have nothing better to do than to make fun of you they need to find something more interresting to do. I understand what you are going through I was overweight in high school, and when they found out that their remarks did not bother me they stopped.

Answer 8

Tell them to shut up. 100 pounds at 5 feet is NOT FAT.

Answer 9

Baby girl dont let that dumb sh*it get you down. Jealousy is a bit*ch and misery loves company..YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! Tell them you can lose fat but they cant lose ugly! If your are comfortable in your own skin who cares what they say. Keep your head up. High school sucks but in a few years you will never have to see any of their ugly faces again.

Answer 10

I know that high school is a tough time but try not to worry too much about what those kids say. They know that you are not fat, but they also know that it upsets you when they say it. Try not to give them the satisfaction of getting you upset, because that is really what they are trying to do. The other posters are probably also correct when they say that those kids are jealous of you. Be proud of who you are and don't worry about them. Eat normally. Work out a little to build muscle if you want, but don't stress yourself about it. This too shall pass.
