I almost want to be..?
Question:
Answers:
You are 5ft 9in and 140lbs? That isn't a fat failure. Maybe you want to be too thin because of pier pressure. Make a priority of being healthy. Excercise, drink water and be happy with yourself. You sound great to me!
Its good that you recognise that you want that control over your life. First of all, I think you really should speak to someone about this, anorexia is a very dangerous disease that you dont want to get trapped into. Secondly, try and figure out how else you could feel like you are 'in control' of your life. Good luck, and please dont worry about your weight. You sound fine to me.
you admire people with anorexia because of the amout of control they have on their lives?? You my friend are a moron.
WTF? Sweetie are you crazy? Anorexic people dont have any type of control. Thats why they are killing themselves slowly. No one wants to watch someone go through that. Its just the high school blues. They cant control their heart from giving out. You need to look into a mirror everyday and pick out the best qualities in your self. You have to love yourself. In high school I was chunky then when I turned 18 I just started losing the weight. Then I felt I was too skinny and stayed that weight until I had my daughter now I am just plain fat! Your Self esteem is a hard thing to control. Concentrate on school and a career and screw what other people say to you. Remember you are your biggest crtic. Lets see I am 5'5 and my ideal weight is 120. Check with your family doctor for options on how to lose weight carefully and comfortable.
well you sound okay to me. no need to waste youreself like linsay lohan, brittney spears, paris, nicole and all of those other mental drug addicted anoresic wanna be rolemodles!! just extersise and eat healthy but if you just have to be anorexic ask youre parents to take you to a nutricionist and for a few runs in the gym. no need to lower youreself
It sounds like you are a very healthy size. Maybe you should speak to a counselor about how you feel about food and your size. I understand wanting to be anorexic to loose weight, but that is not a good way to loose weight at all. It is also very dangerous. People with eating disorders often feel out of control which is not what it sounds like you want. Talk to an adult you trust, they may be able to help. Also, if you find that you do need to take off a couple of pounds, a nutritionist can tell you how to eat and exercise to take off the weight in a healthy way.
People who suffer from anorexia have little or no control in their lives, which is why they starve themselves.
Your weight sounds very appropriate for your height.
It sounds to me like you should maybe talk to your parents or (if you aren't comfortable talking to them) maybe a counselor.
I know its hard and once again its a case of 'Young girls looking at other young girls in magazines with impossible weights, perfect bodies and all that Hollywood crap"
Its sad sometimes, that the media has to put out such an impossible standard of "beautiful" that you need such 'control' to get it.
Of course its not your fault, not your fault at all, not in the least bit. But its because people can accept that people, --REAL people, everyday people have real body weights and live a normal healthy lifestyle cant reach the weights that are portrayed by the media.
I know you look up to their control, that you look you to their status, the way the look and all other fancy things they get, but you have to look behind that too, and you'll see all the pain that they go though, they want to look prefect, they throw up, or don't eat at all, starving their body of the everyday nutrients that are SO important to them, especially in the teen age years. With this they end up losing their hair, sleep, and sometimes their life.
I've seen people go though this, they think that their fat, but they are at their perfect body weight for their height and their bone mass. I don't want to see/ hear about another girl going though this-- or any other eating disorder.
This is a hard thing to deal with, i really suggest that you talk to your parents or a trusted adult, a teacher a counselor, brother or sister, just someone, you are not alone your whole family will be more than happy to know that you would confide in them, and they would be more than happy and willing to help you with this battling problem.
You are at a normal weight for your height. By losing 30 pounds you will be dangerously underweight, please don't, and if you don't believe me you can check it out. (first link)
People use the expression, 'if looks could kill', so freely, but the only thing that they don't understand is, that they really can.
On the contrary these people have the exact opposite of control that is why it ends up spiraling out of control. Diet and exercise,healthy choices is control
