I don't want them to think I'm anorexic, I'm juts a 'tad' underweight. People may call me names if I tell them and so I wear kind of the smae baggy sweatshirt everyday to hide off the fact. My friends tell me I should eat more I just think what's really it is the stress. Help!!!

My friends say 'Gosh you're so anorexic!' or 'You need to eat more, you're just bones!!!'

I eat a lot and then I feel hungry but I just keep going. Is that bad? I'm not starving myself it's just I don't want to be called names like 'Skinny' 'Bones' 'Anorexic' You get my point. and I know that I shouldn't be doing this but I'm scared that it'll become something worse that I don't want. Right now I should weigh about 80-85 pounds or something and I weigh only a good 70 or 68.

I listen to my friends, it's just HARD to not do what I always do. A routine sort of...

I know I should be happy for what I look like it's just I can't. I just can't. I mean, everywhere I go there's pretty girls with a good weight talking to boys who are good weight. Then it's just me, the skinny 'anorexic' pale-faced grim girl. Oh look, there she goes. I can eat to a point I'm full, then I just abandon food. Or I just ignore it. I know it's not good for me but I feel really embarresed about it. I mean, people look at me in the hallway, and they stare at my wrist like it's some sort of alien hand. I have really boney hands and wrists so it's hard for me to pretend I don't notice that people stare. It's just, I think I'm uncomfortable with the fact of my body and they way I am.

Take it as a compliment and don't let it bother you. People always tell me I eat like a bird, but I have this physical inability to over eat. I can love a food to death, but if I eat a certain amount, I can no longer bring myself to put that fork to my face. I've always been normal weight, I've always been healthy, but my bone structure, particularly my hands, wrists and arms, make me look really skinny. The best joke of all is that for as much as people complained I didn't eat enough before, since my doctors put me on a diabetic diet for my pregnancy, I'm actually eating about half of what I used to before I was pregnant. If you're comfortable with yourself, don't let anyone else influence you. It's more important for you to be eating the right kinds of foods so you aren't depriving yourself of essential vitamins and nutrients than for you to be eating a certain quantity. Most people over-eat, so they have no real concept of what a healthy caloric intake looks like, anyway. Take a vitamin supplement everyday if you're really worried about it and you'll be fine.

As long as you know you are not starving yourself then don't listen to anyone. Before my last baby , I was 5'4 and weighed 102. But I did eat alot I just didn't gain no weight. If you are starving yourself then its a big problem , but if you eat enough then your fine , thats just your body type and can no one change that but babies and GOD :)

Eat until you're full at every meal, but be sure to eat healthy though, don't become overweight

Listen to your friends. If you were normal, you wouldn't have to hide yourself. Otherwise, you'll be dead soon, so don't worry about it.
