Question

Answer 1

just try to spend time with others. if your around other people and talk about these things very casually and kinda in a joking way, it wont be a big deal. when ur with ur friends, you wont examine yourself as much anyway...so have some fun!

Answer 2

Don't be so hard on yourself! Find something you like about yourself and dwell on that. If you are overweight, then losing some will definatley help. Start walking a mile a day. It will do wonders. DO NOT STARVE yourself. It will destroy your metabolism. Eat smaller portions. Gradually add distance to your walking and pick up the pace everyday. Before you know it you will be running, and 60 pounds lighter. This is what I did anyway. I started in January and now I am more fit than I have ever been in my life. I walk/run 3 miles per day and eat small meals all through the day. Organic Horizon 1% chocolate milk will ward off any ice cream cravings, and baked cheetos for those I have to have some chips days. Hope this helps! Remember you are BEAUTIFUL!

I find that looking at magazines and what not lowers a person's self esteem, because they compare themselves to the celebrities (they may be conciously or subconciously doing so). So if you do read or look at magazines, I suggest you should cut down some.
Also, don't compare yourself to anyone. Sometimes it can be hard say if you see someone you find is pretty then it sometimes just automatically happens. If you catch yourself comparing yourself to someone else try and stop yourself from doing so.
Try and concentrate on some good things or things that you like about yourself. Even if you don't see anything that you like or are happy with, it may take a little searching. Find something you're good at even (a skill, something you enjoy to do). If you find something you're good at try and perfect that skill and it could make you feel better about yourself, even if it is the slightest.
If you really think you're fat, and you honestly want to lose weight, do it the healthy way, not the starve yourself way. If you lose weight by working out and eating right then it would give you ten times more satisfaction then it would if you did it the cheap way of starving yourself.
Try saying good things to yourself. Even say to yourself that you think you're pretty, that you think you're attractive, that you think you're in good shape. If you say it enough to yourself, you may end up believing it. Positive self talk is a good thing to practice, even if it may sound cheesy.
Other people really don't judge you as hard as you judge yourself, so if you are worried about what other people think, don't bother. Don't worry about what other people think because it just stresses a person out a lot more. Because not only do they have to satisfy themselves with the way they are, but they have to make sure they satisfy other people with the way they are.

Martha if your self exsteem is so low then perhaps you need to seek out the help of a professional who can help you deal with some of these issues. Perhaps there is something in your past, some unresolved issued that need to be dealt with before you can believe in yourself. But if it is merely insecurity then joining a group of people who have the same interests as you, I don't know lets say scrapbooking or baseball, then you may be able to learn from these people as well as build your social circle of friends. Believing in yourself is at times difficult but we are all capable of achieving this. Starving yourself is a pretty sad and juvenile way of dealing with a little bit of weight. Joining a gym and working out and getting fit would most certainly help build up confidence as well as allow you to meet others in your boat also. Best of luck to you and I sincerely hope that you can get some good advice from others if mine is not helpful.

Answer 5

Not sure what kind of work they are having you do in homeroom, but maybe take that time to ask them to help you with a homework question. Something casual to break the ice and start a conversation. Once they get to talking, just relax. Don't force yourself on them. They will either like you, or they won't. If they don't, if was never meant to be and you will just look desperate if you keep after them. Just don't act like they are the snobby popular kids. Talk to them like they are just any old person.

Answer 6

you might have anorexia.dont panic see a physician i dont want to scare you.here's something you should read.Anorexia Nervosa is a disorder where the main characteristic is the restriction of food and the refusal to maintain a minimal normal body weight. Most Anorexics lose weight by restricting their food intake. Anorexics may start by limiting or excluding foods that they perceive as having high fat or caloric content.

Once the disorder of Anorexia Nervosa takes hold, the individual usually ends up with an extremely restrictive diet that is sometimes limited to only a small number of foods. Additional methods of weight loss for Anorexics can include vomiting, laxative abuse, diuretic abuse, insulin abuse, chew-spitting, and excessive exercise.

For individuals suffering from Anorexia Nervosa, any actual gain or even perceived gain of weight is met with intense fear of becoming fat. With Anorexia Nervosa, weight loss usually does not lesson the fear, and in fact, the fear often increases following the weight loss. Not only is there a true feeling of fear, but also once in the grasp of the disorder, Anorexics experience body image distortions. Most individuals suffering from Anorexia have an overall feeling of being overweight.

Some Anorexics have an understanding that they are thin, but are concerned that parts of their bodies are fat. Those areas of the body usually representing maturity or sexuality including the buttocks, hips, thighs, and breasts are visualized by the Anorexic as being fat. An individual with Anorexia Nervosa will often obsessively check their body size and weight through frequent weighing, measuring, pinching, and viewing themselves in a mirror.

With Anorexia self-esteem and self worth is tied directly to the Anorexic's body shape and weight. For an Anorexic, weight loss is viewed as a success, a sign of extraordinary self-discipline, and control over life. Conversely, any real or perceived weight gain is seen as a personal failure and loss of control for the Anorexic.

For some Anorexics, weight loss is so severe there is a loss of menstruation. Medical complications for individuals with Anorexia Nervosa can be severe and even life threatening. Some of the more common potential medical complications include emaciation, bradycardia, hypotension, hypothermia, impaired renal functioning and gastrointestinal problems.

If Anorexia Nervosa is left untreated, it can be fatal.

Answer 7

First of all do not do anything for anyone else. Whatever you want to do, lower your weight, dye your hair, change your wardrobe, etc. do because you want to do it. Do not change who you are for anybody else. Second of do not rely on anybody to make you feel you are worthy, beautiful, etc to make you feel secure about you. Alot of teens mature by later in college and kinda fill their skin with who they are or become. I hope that makes sense. Basically find out who you are and only make changes based on who you want to be.
Third and most important. No matter who you are or want to become, Jesus loves you and accepts you the way you are. God has special plans for you and it is up to you to say yes. Be safe and God Bless.
