My friend is afraid that she is fat?:Is she, she is 88 pounds, at 5"4, and she is 14 years old.?

Answer 1

she aint that is skinny! she needs to GAIN weight

Answer 2

She is not fat. As her friend you need to talk with her about Body Dismorphic Syndrome. This is a condition that effects teenage girls the most. They believe that they are fat even when they become emaciated ( skin and bones like a crackhead). Try this as an example for her.
Have her draw herself out on a large piece of cardboard, then have her lie down over the silhouette and you trace around her ( just like you did with your hands in pre-school). This will demonstrate to her how her "Body Image" differs from reality. If this does not work try talking with her parents. This is a serious issue and, left unchecked, can lead to anorexia and/or bulimia.

I hope this helps. Best of luck.

Answer 3

At 5'4", females should weigh around 120 pounds. She is seriously underweight and should seek help for anorexia.

Answer 4

Not acceptable. I'm not even 5'0 and I weigh more than that. That's ridiculous. Tell her to get help. Seriously. SHE'S NOT FAT.

Answer 5

You've got to be kidding me! She needs to see someone that she can relate to.. At the very least, she should have an intervention!

Answer 6

Heck no she needs to think straight she is not fat

Answer 7

No you arent. And STOP asking that already. Dont be so insecure, you're barely at that stage and are way overboard on it.

Answer 8

your friend does not have to think that. she is underwieght and need to get some help. teel your friend don't worry what's on the iinside, it is the outside that counts.

Answer 9

Hell..no.. She is underweight and that is too skinny.. she needs to gain weight.
