hey guys. i'm new on this site, so a lil intro: 14 years old, live in the US, freshman in high school....blah blah blah(;
so, i will be the first to tell you guys that...i am anorexic. i'm 5'3 and 90 pounds. a few years ago, i was up to 95, but over the summer i lost 10 pounds, and that's where it began. i guess you could say i'm not a full-blown anorexic, because i still eat when i am hungry (usually) but i eat diet food, won't eat junk food, spit out food that i know is bad for me, stay away from things with high calories...all that jazz :P. i eat lots of fruits and vegetables, and try to stay as much away from carbs as i can. i'm known in my house to never eat a full candy...even if it's "bite sized." i'm very active, which definitely contributed to the weight loss...i do horseback riding 5x a week, run track, and play soccer.
my mom always tells me how skinny i am, but i don't see it at all. i have gained some weight in the past few months, and i hate it. people used to tell me all the time how thin i was, and now they are telling me how healthy i look...which, if i was sane, would be a good thing. but, in my mind, this translates to "you are so thin...ooh, you gained weight!"
i do go to a therapist for this, but she doesn't help....so yeah. any tips or helpful shtuff for getting over this and feeling better about myself is luffed(;
