When I was 16 I decided I should lose some weight, I wasn't fat I was 5'3 and about 120 lbs. With in 8 months I had dropped to about 85 lbs. All the time my boyfriend was really worried and kept telling me I need to gain weight. One day I realised what the hell am I doing, I lose my friends and my guy is the only person I really have to wants to be around me and look after me. I was Since then my weight has been changing between 110-115 lbs. I thought ok I hate being this fat but it is better to live and be loved than be thin. Resently I lost a little weight and it feels so good. I'm now 5'4.5 and 100 lbs. I would like to be 88 lbs. I really enjoy losing weight, it makes me happy. I completly freek if I go over 105 lbs now. I love to just run miles on the tred on a empty stomuch or till I nearly pass out. I'm still with my guy and I love him but it just makes me happy. I hate to be fat. I dunno if this is an eating disorder or not. Just wanted some advice.

Replies Just Waiting Here Posted at 12:00 pm on July 29, 2008 It's definitely a problem.  Exercising with no nutrients to go on is bad for your body.  being 115 pounds for your height is healthy.  Being 88 pounds is NOT.  Someone who is underweight is just as much at risk for health problems as someone who is overweight (of course, depends on the person, but you get the point). I don't care about my size, I care about being healthy.  Being overweight or underweight are not good for the body.  There's a difference between being THIN and UNDERWEIGHT. If you still can't control it, I would consider talking to a doctor.  I knew a female when I was younger who's doctor told her that her weight was so little (she wasn't anorexic, just low weight) that it could affect her growth.  Of course, you're older than that, so I suppose you're done with the growing... but it just goes to show that there ARE major concerns associated with body weights that are too low.  I would suggest talking to a doctor so that they can tell you what your ideal weight would be, and maybe they can help you figure out a diet that will give you the calories you need, but will keep you at a healthy weight. ashleeeyy Posted at 11:59 am on July 29, 2008 so... you were 5'3 and 35 lbs?  i find that hard to beleive...i know toddlers heavier than that...most of them actually Lally Posted at 11:58 am on July 29, 2008 eating disorder crazybelles930 Posted at 11:58 am on July 29, 2008 This is a an eating disorder. You may be Anorexic. You should get some help. You may not be that bad. You realize you may have a problem. That is good. surfergurl Posted at 11:58 am on July 29, 2008 anorexia...Get help, or else you'll die so chose: 130 lbs and living, or 88 lbs and dead. gman101 Posted at 11:57 am on July 29, 2008 i think it is and i think you need 2 c a doctor about it. just helping you out.
