Answer 1

You can start by telling the people who are constantly giving you unrequested advise to mind their own business.

Next, you can accept that you are genetically prone to "being skinny". There is nothing wrong with being skinny. What is skinny to one person is "JUST RIGHT" to another.

Last, accept that God made you in his image and that if that means the skinny image of himself then you are still very much perfect and other people just don't know that the heck they are talking about.

Take care of yourself, eat healthy, exercise, and enjoy life.

Answer 2

you are skinny, but not is a bad way. I think that you look fine. It would help if I knew how old you were. Cause when I was like 14-17 everyone thought that I was anorexic too, but I are like crazy, then when I turned 18 I started to gain a little more weight and looked healthier. But you're also asian, and you don't see many bigger asian women, or at least from what I've seen. Don't worry about it. You're a cute girl and you really shouldn't let what others think bother you. It's better to be a little skinny then obese. So you're lucky. Cheer up!

Answer 3

that's like me too. i know how you feel. i eat like a horse, i am 17 yrs and wear size 6 jeans (am in Australia but that is a small size) some of us are just blessed with a faster metabolism than others. you will learn to love your body as it is one day. it's really hard constantly having people on your back about how you look and your eating habits.especially when they throw the terms anorexia, bullimia etc around so casually, cos it really hurts and is a serious thing. but just keep eating plenty. if you are wanting to gain some weight though see a dietitian if you haven't already. i hope that you start feeling better about yourself real soon cos you can't let it control your life.

Answer 4

You don't look skinny in your pictures. It could be that girls who call you skinny mean it as a compliment, since the standard of beauty in our society is to be slim. Or maybe they envy you and wish they could be thin, too. In any case, if you can eat heartily and not gain weight, you're lucky. And it seems that you eat healthfully, too (although I'd wean myself off the bacon). Unless it turns out that you have abnormally high metabolism, you're probably remarkably healthy and can look forward to living to a ripe old age.

Answer 5

Don't listen to people who tell you that you are too skinny. It is your body and you are in control.

You look attractive on the pics. You should love your looks, not feel bad about them.

If the doctor says that you are in good health, consider whether you want to talk to a therapist about how you feel about yourself and what it means when people say something about you.

And find some activities where you are among people who are supportive. Do things you enjoy.

Happy new year! And stop worrying too much.

Answer 6

As long as you are healthy, and it sounds like you are, then you are fine. Sure you look a little small, but that's okay. Some people just have faster metabolisms than others. If you've been checked out, then try not to worry. I know it's hard to ignore people's comments on your appearance, but try. More than likely they wish they could be as skinny as you.

Answer 7

Honestly, you are pretty and fine.

Could it be the way you just feel about yourself unhappy, or just emotional or poor self esteem? This is how you feel on the inside, and you think your looks or appearance has something to do with it. No it doesn't You are doing fine and as long as your doctor says your great...... good

Try vegetables, fruits, healthy chicken, vegetable soups, and stay away from sugars and salts.

Answer 8

don't take the comments too seriously. There's a self-esteem problem here that you shouldn't experienced. Just act natural.When I saw your photos, I don't think you're skinny. Focus on things that makes you feel comfortable. You're not depressed, you're just emotionally stressed... if you saw me personally, I'm chubby... but i'm ironic person. I had a thyroid problem, and when every time I gained weight, people noticed that too. But I just ignore it and continue to focus on my studies. Just let them be

Answer 9

you're not too skinny. Don't worry about what people tell you. I know it's easy for me to say, but believe me, I've seen skinnier who eat a ton. It's just in your genes. Be happy. When your metabolism slows down as you get older, you'll gain weight.

Answer 10

enjoy being slender you know you are healthy and the
styles are designed for the thin. I saw your photos
and you are just a slender gal. Everyone has a different
shape and some people are just inclined to be small.
Your heritage may have something to do with it and
be happy for your thin genes!!!
Don't worry about what others say who cares just eat
healthy and enjoy life . Happy New Year to you.
