Hi,

I know how you feel I used to be the same way, but please please don't starve yourself, it is a very slippery slope and is much worse in the long run.

I went through a period where I was eating only 200 calories a day and verging on anorexia, but as soon as I started eating what is considered a normal amout of food my weight rocketed. and the eating disorder spiraled into binge eating disorder.

these disorders are completely life consumeing and ruined all my teenage years.

I know its tough but instead of trying to be like the other girls try to love yourself for who you are, I have had a look at your photos and you are a beautiful girl, being skinny isen't everything.

however if you do want to lose some weight I do suggest you adopt a much healthier diet, but have fun with it don't let it control you.

never eat less than 1500 calories a day, its just not worth it in the long run

try and eat lots of fresh fruit and vegtables, and avoid processed foods
the chips and fries definantly won't help

feed your body regularly with good healthy foods to avoid hunger pangs which make you reach for unhealther foods

join a sports team at school and do exercise which you enjoy

just do a little at a time and the weight will fall off

good luck, and I am here if you walk to talk, I know exactly how you feel

Drink lots of water! and BMI is often bull... I mean, if you are tall, big bones, big boobs.... its automatically thrown off.

Not eating won't fix anything. *hug*

IT'S ALWAYS BEST TO EAT BREAKFAST IF YOU CAN OR A BREAKFAST DRINK. THEY SAY TO EAT 5-6 SMALL MEALS A DAY. 2 OF THOSE SMALL MEALS WOULD BE THE SNACKS INBETWEEN SAY APPROX. 100 CALORIES, WHETHER FRUIT, GRANOLA BAR, YOGURT, ETC. THIS SPEEDS UP YOUR METABOLISM AND KEEPS YOU FROM GETTING HUNGRY. JUST BASICALLY WATCH WHAT YOU EAT, STICK WITH THE HEALTHIER ITEMS AND I THINK YOU WILL NOTICE CHANGES RIGHT AWAY. STAY AWAY FROM THE SUGARS AND SALTS AND DRINK PLENT OF WATER ALONG WITH PLENTY OF REST. GOOD LUCK AND I'M HERE TO HELP IF I CAN. KATHY

You are a beautiful girl! When I was your age I was obsessed with my weight and my body as well. My mom got me a gym membership and it helped a lot. At your age, your metabolism is in prime condition (you're growing, so it's fast) - and the only thing you probably need is a little physical activity. If it's at all possible for you, forget about what you eat (just don't OVEReat) and just worry about getting active! Please don't starve yourself, because that will ruin your metabolism, and you're gorgeous the way you are!

I too have been overweight my whole life. It is unpleasant at best.
Avoid all diet food, especially anything containing aspartame, splenda, or sweet-n-low. Cut animal fat, like butter. Use vegan butter instead. Eat breakfast, real granola is a good option. Bagels are iffy, check the ingredients. Avoid high fructose corn syrup at any cost. It is a fettening agent (super highly refined sugar). And drink alot of bottled/filtered water, not tap water. Add this to the rest of the advise on the page, and you should get thinner and healthier.
