Even at 11 you cannot be this stupid. Go to a therapist first. or ask your parents permission to commit suicide, because that is what you are doing. If you cannot stick to a reasonable diet and exercise, which is the only healthy way to lose weight, then you have bigger problems than weight, dear.

YOU are super skinny too! You really need to see a counselor or someone you trust with this. It sounds like you are very active and that is great! Dont feel bad about yourself cause your friends have a size smaller or something. Talk to you mom first Im sure she will be very understanding of where you are coming from...after all she was 11 once too. ;)
Actually turning to a eating disorder is the WORST thing you can do when you feel this way. Mostly because you will feel bad about doing it and you will have to recover from it so you dont die. Then if and when you do, your body will be so messed up, it will be VERY hard for you to be fit and skinny again. So try something less drastic. If you just need some attention tell your mom or dad or whom ever you feel closest to as an adult. Im sure it would tear her heart out to know you are thinking of doing this!

OMG YOU IDIOT!!!!!! I'm sorry, but my best friend has anorexia and it's a method of self harm, and a MENTAL problem. Also she now has 9 months to live if she continues...and she can't stop, because it's a medical mental deficancy. If she passes out they will inject food into her at the hospital and thats awful to even think about!! Also, it's ruining my life that she's like that ... if your a good friend you wont do that to your friends. I know a bulimic who tried to commit suicide when she gained 2 pounds, finnally she got councilling and she stopped but her metabolism slowed down because of her anorexia and bulimia and she gained her weight and then some back. She also shaved years off her life-- anorexics are easily sick after they get better, if they don't die from their issue. Try healthy ways and tell your mom how you feel about you weight!!!

NOOOOOO! Absolutely not. 110 pounds is healthy and you may not care but you do not just get sick. It can lead to death. You are 11 years old. Do not put yourself or your family through that. Anorexia and bulimia is not a joke and it is not a weight loss program. Trust your doctors and ask them if there is a healthy way to lose. 110 pounds should be healthy and it depends on your height. Also, your body will grow and you will get taller. Don't put your body through that.

Should you become aneroxic? That's like asking if you should go catch the bubonic plague. Of corse not. You don't say how tall you are, so it is hard to judge if you are really overweight or not. I will tell you that you need to have vitamins and minerals in order to properly grow, so becoming anorexic is not the answer. Why don't you try becoming vegetarian instead? And don't forget the B12.

You need to see a psychiatrist who specializes is people who have ED, or are in the process of getting one. Why don't you search google, and see what Anorexia does to your insides? You'll be skinny on the outside, but you'll be a mess inside. I know a girl who had Anorexia, and got menopause at 19. Sound like fun?

skinny girls look like boys... do you want to look like a boy, or do you want to look like a healthy girl?
If you starve yourself, you will be so skinny that you will not reach womanhood when you are suppose to and therefore you wont get boobs.
You will look like a skinny boy.
That isnt pretty. Curves are beautiful. Ask anyone.
Besides if you starve yourself you wont be able to do any of those fun activities you are doing now, and your teeth will rot because of the barf.. You will be so ugly, you will have wished you didnt make that decision.

please dont do it. talk to your mom, talk to your sisters, your guidance counselor, just seek help before things get out of control. u are at a tender age of 11 and you are already concerned about your weigt (that's just the society that we live in now) but there is more to life than being skinny, anorexic and unhealthy. you are growing, you need nutrients to build strong bones, healthy heart, lungs, skin, hair, brain cells. dont do anything that you will end up regretting later on in life. you are beautiful because God made you in his image. continue to enjoy and be active thru your cheerleading and dance and gymnastics. and eat healthy meals. be 11, live in the moment. love yourself.
good luck, sweetheart

you serously can not be thinking about it. if you i would take to someone fast.
no normal person would make them selves like that.
i am a personal trainer and i work with a lot of girls that where anoxeric and are now working out to help there bodys get better and they are still so ill.
you can never get over being anoxeric it is with you for life and little things will trigger it off agin.
juzst be happy in your self and not fall for peer pressure.
