i think you just need to keep saying so. Some people are just naturally lean. Or maybe you dont have as much of an appetite as others. \nI guess it doesn't matter whether you are skinny or fat they will always find a way to judge you. You just need to tell them where to shove it. Certainly your family should love you for what you are as a person. You are beautiful.

Ok so lets be realistic here NOONE is perfect and most people find it very difficult to admit when they are wrong. I had a friend tell me something once that I wont easily forget, he said "everyone has a weakness and you can use that for your benefit". After that I saw things differently. Not that Im taking advantage of them but knowing they are human too and being able to look for and find it helped my esteem cause suddenly we were all on the same playing field. now I dont need that to know im a good person and i dont take others as personally anymore either.\n\nThe best part was poking a little fun at my "perfectly skinny friend" who always had a better than me attitude about weight (not that im fat) But i realized she is quite flat chested and it does bother her a bit and that cut her down to size. we are better friends now than ever.\n\nI just thought of something else. If some one says something that bothers you sometimes it helps to repeat it back to them in thier own words. "so your saying....." this creates a little 'yes' in thier mind and builds rapport between you. It also lets him hear himself and think about what he has said.

Change your image a bit. Wear a different type of clothing, fix your hair a different way, and be a complete opposite of what you are now, if this doesn't do the trick then don't worry about what they are saying. Just agree with them and walk on.

Have him come over to your house. Before you do this google picture and all these articles on anorexia and all the problems that is can cause including the long term effect--DEATH! After you do this have him come over and have a serious talk with him and say that you are worried about him.  Show him all the research and talk with him.\n\nIf this doesn't work, then you need to tell someone because he is hurting him self.  Maybe like a school couslner, mom/ dad, girlfriend of his, anyone that will have a bigger influence on him them you.\n\nI know this must be hard. But remember you can only help so much. He has to want to change to.  Good Luck

Have you talked to a psychologist who specializes in eating disorders? Recognizing your problem puts you on the road to recovery, so I hope you'll follow up with a professional who can help.\n\nGood luck!

i would stay what works for me is working out it increases endorphin es in my brain that helps me feel more confident and less depressed.. in general iwould say find something you love and are good at and do it,also make some new friends and be around positive people,this is an issue that i have trouble with too as a recovering anorexcic,learn to love yourself as hard as is it,believe in yourself and stay away from the haters,people who put you down have low confidence themselves. lol.

not everyone is, you probably just feel that way. I was skinny all my life till about 2 years ago, and it doesn't bother me. If it bothers other people i don't care, they are not involved in my life and know nothing about me. You shouldn't worry about what other people say.

I am seriously not going to sit here and tell you how to run your life but it is dangerous.  If being anorexic really makes you proud and happy then by all means, I am not the person to tell you any differently.  As far as finding a website to help you in your quest for self-destruction.  No I do not know of any.  I am sorry I cannot be more help in that department.  However what I can tell you is that my sister suffered from anorexia for a very long time.  She went through spells where she wouldnt eat and then she went through spells where she "purged."  She was extremely unhealthy looking and she was just unhappy all around.  I think that there's always a reason why people are anorexic and it's not always due to the fact that they think they are fat!  It's truly an obsessive thing.  There is a plethera of medications out now to help treat Obsessive disorders.  Maybe you should try one of those so you don't end up getting disgustingly skinny.  I wish you the best of luck in whichever route you choose!  If you ever need someone to talk to...I will listen!

it sounds like you have self esteem issues brought on by puberty and the idiots who seem to have so many unkind things to say to you. just because people tell you that you're unattractive doesn't mean it's true or that you have to believe it. they do it to everyone because they are insecure about themselves and if they chime in and pick on someone when she's feeling down they think they look cool. I've never seen you, but I'm sure you're not ugly. the only real ugly people are the ones who are ugly deep in their souls-- not the ones who aren't curvy or aren't thin or don't look like supermodels. also, don't call yourself dumb. if you give in and start calling yourself the names other people call you, you are just letting them win and you'll never get anywhere in life.

Just ignore them.  The only reason they keep doing this is because you are reacting.  If you quit giving them any change in your facial expression and quit saying anything to them about it and maybe just give them a laugh and walk off, they will stop.

just ignore them, those people are trying to make ur self esteem down, have confidence in urself. and don't allow anyone to degrade you.\nIf you had to answer then tell them:  Yes I am mad because I allowed myself to talk to someone silly and  shallow like you.

Bring it up in conversation. Let her know you are concerned about her without accusing her of anything. Tell her how much you love her and how you don't want her to see her hurt herself. If she does have an eating problem (which she may not), she probably has low self-confidence and it will help her to know that someone cares about her no matter what happens. Eating disorders are serious, so keep an eye on her. If you get concerned, don't hesitate to tell a teacher or one of your or her parents. She may be mad, but she will come to see that you were just trying to help her, and by telling someone she will be able to get the help she needs. Just please be sure she does have a problem before you do tell someone. Maybe something else is going on besides an eating disorder. Just talk to her. Good luck. Let me know if you need anything.

Pass out little debbie cakes to all of them and tell them all to eat something!!!!  Just kidding sweetie.  I actually used to be really really big and recently lost 87 pounds.  I don't really like outside kind of exercises because I feel like everyone is watching me so I dance all the time to my radio at home.  And I dont eat until i am full anymore.  I stop eating when I don't feel hungry anymore.  Plus I drink water constantly all day long.  It helps to flush out your body so you lose weight faster. I hope this helps you sweetie and Good Luck!! (NO SODA!!!! it is really bad on your kidneys and lowers your metabolism)\nBut if u r really only 10 years old...then u shuldn't be worried about your weight right now.  Just enjoy your childhood sweet-heart!  Live Life Happy...that's why God put us here!

Ask yourself these questions:\n1. Are you exercising constantly?\n2. Do you weigh yourself every day?\n3. Are you refusing to eat?\n4. Do you see yourself as fat when you look in the mirror?\n\nIf you answer yes to all 4 questions, then you might be anorexic and need to get the help of a therapist.  Anorexia nervosa is a nasty condition.  If you do get it, you will have it for the rest of your life.  You can get it under control but it will always be with you and can creep up at any time.  You will have to learn how to get and keep it under control at all times.  Food is not your enemy.

I would tell u to make sure that you get the proper information on eating disorders so that u can throw facts at her each time she tries to rebut yr evidence bring up truth. Please do something for her but gosh i would hate for you to have to tell an adult or call someone for her, I would never talk to u again if i were her, but then again if she dies well there's no talking in that either. Make the right choice, try it yrself one more time, show pix of anorexic girls   http://www.d.umn.edu/~jvaleri/anorexia3_edited.jpg i think that will link right but idk. She needs to realize that this is an unnessary addiction. This is like her drug, she feels like she has control over something in her life. Anorexia gives her a balance geez when i was anorexic, but never to the point of extreme, i felt so happy w myself that i made the day w/o eating. Yr friend has to see that its not the right thing to do and being anorexic isnt even cool anymore? hAS SHE SEEN THE WAY HOLLYWOOD looks today? aND THE way that men look at a curvy body w healthy breasts hips and thighs and the cute butt behind a woman? I mean standards will always change but she needs to practice confidence first and for that reason you should tell a professional about her who can then tell her parents, they will likely understand from the accurate perspective of a person specialized in that field. kiss kiss bye oh remember http://images.animanga.nu/fanart/2798/anorexia.jpg she sees that in the mirror everyday so be mindful of that k honey?

I think you just needed to vent a little! You should be proud of how you look no matter what size you are. As long as you're healthy and happy, that is all that matters. Don't worry about what other people think.
