Feel so fat

I am 5'2, 110 lbs, and most people would think that was thin...but to me...I am HUGE. I look in the mirror each day and cry because of what I see. I hate the way I look. I am too short, too fat, legs too short, face ugly, too tiny of breast, waist too thick...I am just ugly. And fat....I just want to lose all the fat on my body...I just don't care anymore...

*hugs* I think we all feel that way, have you tried cognative behavoral therapy? It works on changing self talk (i.e. I'm fat, ugly) I went when I was 13 but I was to immature to use it, otherwise I think it would have helped... please keep fighting, its SO hard but we need to keep trying anyway... AND even though you won't believe me, you ARE NOT FAT

You are nowhere near fat!
think of it this way...
Small people can fit in smaller places...

Your just petite...

your pretty as hell!...

Boobs aint everything!...

You need fat to keep you warm..

Cheer up sunshine

Sending love your way!

You ought to be weary about numbers on here hun, they can be a trigger, but yeh your not fat, your BMI wil show you that, i know it doesnt really make a difference to how you see yourself, but it can be a bit of a reassurance

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
