Hi. I'm a teenage girl and I'm really worried. No one says I'm fat but when I look in the mirror, I see this ugly and fat giant. I'm really tall for my age: 1.76cm. But, I weigh 60kilos!!!! That's so much and I'm so worried. Am I fat?? I so think I am but I really am desperate for a second opinion - lately, I've been laying off food and I sometimes starve myself. Am I fat??

No, you are not fat, quite the contrary, you are at a healthy weight for your age. It depends on your frame. To calculate your frame measure the circumference of your wrist. A small frame: under 159 mm, medium frame: 159-165mm, and large frame: 165mm+. Small Frame should weigh 64-70kg, medium frame should weigh: 67-74kg, 70-82kg. In all actuality you are underweight. I am also a really tall girl, 6', you are about 5'9"- 5'10", and teenage girls tend to think they are fatter than they really are. Stop focusing on thinking your fat, and please, please don't starve yourself, it will only hurt you. If you are worried about being fat, though you're definitely not, don't starve yourself, exercise. Exercise releases adrenalin and positive endorphins which make you and your body feel good. You may feel fat because you might not have muscles, try toning your body up through exercise, like walking, taking stairs, and stretching. Also try talking to some girl friends or maybe a school counselor or something to help raise your self esteem andconfidnc level, which will make all the difference. If you're still worried check out these websites listed below.

I think you have develop an eating disorder so i think you should go to a psychiatrist
you really need help if your starving your self
and also because i am reading what you say and if you say that you look at the mirror and everything you see is an ugly and fat giant your actually punishing your self
so you do need a PSYCHIATRIST

The best way to check is a professional site. I highly suggest http://www.southbeachdiet.com - it has a lot of info between that and how to eat if you need to cut back and lose weight.

Don't starve yourself...all that'll happen is when you do eat, your body will hold the fat more because it's looking for nutrients and grasping for health. If you constantly starve yourself, you'll be boney and weak, lose color, and eventually, if you starve enough, you're body will begin to eat your muscles! Look at Calista Flockhart...she's a good example of someone whose body is eating at the muscles to survive!

Look, normal weight is 10 kilos les then the centimeters above 1 m. So you are actually below the normal. But i guess you asked the question cause you need to hear from other people that you are not fat. So here it is:
You are not fat.

first of all why are you worried about it. Be yourself be happy and you will attract people into your life that will love you for who you are. What matters is your health. Teenagers are overly concerened with their physical beauty. You will soon see that a person's inner beauty never fades and this is who people fall in love with. Just be yourself and stop worrying

Not at all....for your height 60 kgs is normal...starving yourself will only make it worse. Talk to a counselor about your body image. You are perfect just the way you are now.

You're fine. You sholdn't be worrying. I think you shouldn't be losing any weight.

And this isn't supposed to be some "Oh, you shouldn't worry" answer, but you REALLY shouldn't be worrying.

I highly doubt that you are 1.76 centimeters tall.

If thats true, then you should be more worried about your height than your weight.
