Miss Kierra...
Why would you want to try it.

I was fat .. and I went through a grueling diet that in retrospect was too fast. I however was able to stop.

This inspired my brother who was heavy-- to "diet" but he went down the anorexic route . and had trouble stopping. I found out years later he was binging and purging during his quote diet. He lost weight, but he also almost died.

If you just want the sensation .. and some do .. people fast all the time .. many think it is good for the body and/or gives character .. sure give it a try. But don't make it a life style. Don't do it more than say once a month.

Find something you like, or might like to do, and try it. Walk, get involved with your religion, get involved with a sport (swiming, hiking, dancing...) music, get involved with a martial arrts club .. one that is high touch and low on rambo. (most aikido groups are like that)

Pick the low hanging fruit .. streach a little .. not a lot. Pref something with people around that will probably be nice to you. not something really competitive and leave if people are being mean.

This should help the self esteem, and with that .. then any body perception problems.

Go girl go!
anorexia is NOT something that should be tried...EVER! If you think you are not fat, then why torture yourself?? If you want to get into better shape, exercising really is the BEST way!!!!
If you think you have a low self esteem, look deep inside yourself and point out a few things that you really like...maybe it's your humor, or your brains. anything.
but please, before anything gets worse, THINK! If you really need help find a social worker or someone you can trust to talk out your issues. good luck!
what are you thinking about.You are probably an ordinary teenager who thinks the whole adult world doesn't know what is going on.
