Okay.  You can't just 'consider' an eating disorder.  They are exactly that -- disorders.  You don't try to obtain a disorder!  It just happens to you, if you are unlucky.  Sure, you can be at risk, but no matter how much you DIET, you may never contract a DISORDER.  There is a clear distinction.\n\nSecond, you say you know you're not fat.  That's good!  Whoever is calling you fat are jealous morons who have self-esteem issues.  Don't let their problems become yours!  I'm glad to see that you're smart enough to recognize that they're wrong.  Now you need to be strong enough to stick to what you know to be true and not let anyone else's wrong opinions get to you.\n\nIf you can't stop caring about what other people think, consider this: for every one person who thinks you're fat, there are many who think you are beautiful.  Keep your chin up, hun!  Those jerks will realize how selfish they're being.

Have you ever heard of self esteem. Well that seems to be what you are lacking. You shouldn't be worried about what's going on around you and what someone else is thinking but what you feel. If you feel your overweight YOU need to do something about it. You need to be better for you to become a better person. AND PLEASE FOR GOD SAKE'S YOU DO NOT NEED A MAN! If anything you need to leave them alone for awhile and do for you. Work on you. From a ladi that's been there. Care about home first then invite someone to visit.

You may have body dismorphic syndrome.  It's a form of annorexia.  I am not implying you have anorexia, but body dismorphic syndrome is when you look in to a mirror and see something that isn't there (I.e, fat).  You may want to seek professional help for this so it does not escalate in to something worse.

How bout not blaming someone else for your problems.  If you are getting fat it's up to you to do something about that.\n\nI can't believe all those who answered before me did not call him on this!  What's wrong with ya'll????

Don't worry about it. Really. If you are happy and you know you're not anorexic,it really doesn't matter what other people think. I look at it that they're probably just jealous. Have fun! Go shopping!  :)

You're only fat if you think you're fat.  If you're happey the way you are now then don't do anything about it.  People should just live there lives happy and not cair what other people think about them.\n\nIf you don't like that answer go see a doctor and ask him what he thinks.

I'm not a fat girl, and I am.. pretty skinny... and this is just something i want you to know, DON'T EVER listen to what others have to say about how YOU look. You are your own person.I say you don't get fat even if they want you too. If they want you to.. they must really not be someone who really cares for you. Being skinny is a gift to some people and a curse for others. But i think that everything anyone has, is a gift. Don't listen to negative comments. Do what's... right^-^

i know what u mean! well, kinda, you see, i was like that...ok, i lie, i am like that...and i dont know what it is. counsleing, and crap is trying to help me figure the source, but i dont think it is for beauty, i think it goes far beyaond that by being called fat by my father when i was only 6 years old..then by my sibblings. although i was never fat. i am under my weight now, too far, and it hasnt made me beautiful, and it never will. annorexia only gets you a lot of teasing and embarrassment, and into a deep puddle of mud. i wish i could get help, but all i can get help from is my mom and a youth pastor. i feel lonly and lost, and it is a troubling disease to have. it scares me and makes me sad.

there is nothing wrong with being fat, it's people like you that are shallow who don't accept the people for who they are. Anyone should be able to feel comfortable whatever shape they are?... and what do u mean promoting fatness? how??...a store... u know people need to wear cloths... lol

It took me 35 years to learn this one.  One's own perception of self is very powerful and it's hard to understand when others don't see you the same way.  The reality is that 99.99% of people don't know what's in your head whether you feel good or bad about yourself.  You need to learn to see what others see in you.  Yeah, they could be yankin' your chain hoping to pull you out of your funk, or they could be genuinely honest about what they see.  It won't matter until you get over yourself, until your own perception goes beyond "fat and ugly".

i don't think anyone is 100% happy with themselves. I think i'm fat, even though i'm really not. don't worry, i'm sure everyone thinks they have at least 1 imperfection.

Wow sweetheart.  I know how that is. I have been over weight a good part of my life.  So most people are going to tell you to ignore what she said cause you are better than that.  Well darlin you are better than that... but if you would like some good comebacks.. I've got years of practice.   For one.... I love to say... well I may be fat... but you're ugly and I can lose weight... It's gonna take you a lot of money to fix that monstrosety you've got goin on. And then there's.. "wow it must have taken you a long time to come up with insults like that... now did you think of them all by yourself?" and "You know....my weight is an easy target...here's a thought....next time you want to try to hurt me, try coming up with something a little more original.....oh yeah... well that takes brain power now doesn't it? sorry about your luck." \n\n\nNow I'm not one for getting into childish things like that. But you've got to stand up for yourself. And if anything the only thing I do when people call me names is insult their intelligence. Cause honestly, if they had any, they would be coming up with something better than calling me fat.\n\nAnd don't let her intimidate you honey. You are way better than her and that chicks' cousin. Obviously he isnt good enough for you and never was.  Be strong and remember... you are beautiful....no matter what other people think. You have something in you that they obviously don't have. You have a heart.  \n\nThat girl especially isn't as comfortable with herself as she may portrey. She pounds you down cause thats the only way she can bring herself up. \n\n*hugs*  Take Care.. and if you ever need to talk just email or im me.   my ID + @yahoo.com

Just because some idiot told you you were fat - doesn't mean you are, or that you should lose weight.\n\nYou need to learn to love yourself - the way you are, not the way some guy wants you to be. If you change yourself for someone else, you will never be happy. If you do want to lose weight - that is fine - but do it for yourself because you want to be healthy, not for a guy who is clearly not worth it!\n\nAny person worth listening to wouldn't say that you are fat.

you are fine. as long as you feel comfortable, thats what really matters.\n\ntoo many people are hung up on being thin and even when we are not overweight? we still think we are because of advertisements, Hollywood and models.
