listen, u are not fat and im not trying to be rude or anything but i really think u should go to the doctor and get urself checked out...you not feeling hungry can be alot of things connected to many parts of your body...and i recommend the average amount of calories is perfect for you... Being skinny is not that bad...I have the same problem exept i am a pig. I am 4 foot 9 and i am 12 and weigh 67 pounds.... yeah as u can see we both have a fast metabolism...So keep it in there cuz it will be okay... And i do modeling too! My modeling agent is actually supportive of my weight cuz my doctor talked to her and explained my weight has nothing to worry about.. I dont have a disorder.. And i think my agent has cought on cuz i eat a bunch of snacks during photo shoots.. So like i said god bless you and i wish you luck

Absolutely get help for your eating disorder!! You need to be healthy in order to do anything, not just modeling. It breaks my heart to hear you and other women say they are too fat. Please understand that human bodies come in all shapes and sizes. People that tell you to look a certain way - especially a way that is impossible to maintain - does not have your best interests at heart. Your beauty comes out through your personality, through your heart, through your charm. Beauty isn't about being the thinnest - and don't let ANYONE tell you different!! Be a rebel - rebel against the media hype of the "perfect" female image. And in fact, the most iconoclastic female, Marilyn Monroe, was a curvy, bodaceuos WOMAN. Not a waify, androgonistic stick!! Even Beyonce, who is now quickly becoming an icon, has curves and a little cushion. Women everywhere are getting breast implants and butt implants to look more curvy - not stickly. It is very strange that the high fashion industry has an anti-feminine image of women.
Please, get some help for yourself. Live healthy and happy.
Good luck to you!!

I think you know the answer to your question. YES! get help. I am not going to tell you calorie needs because with an eating disorder the number you would need would freak you out and scare you away from getting healthy. I think deep down you all ready know that you are too skinny. I will be quite frank with you. If you do not get help you will die. Here is a clue that you are too skinny.......Your agent is wanting to kick you out.....does that say anything? For those idiots that say you are fine and to check your BMI here is the link to check it. Guess what it says.......according to the CDC which is Center for Disease Control they say you are under weight. Here are some links for you to check for yourself. Those that say you are fine would also rather be disgustingly thin and unhealthy then look and feel healthy.

99 lbs and 5'6'' is not fat at all. Get your BMI checked, it'll probably be below average. You have a serious disorder, go to your doctor asap.

You should make an appointment with your doctor immediately before you kill yourself. You very likely are suffering from anorexia, and your agent is right.
