Reply from Sharie, Age 16I can really empathize with you. I used to be very fat when i was younger, and then to 'cure' it i became anerexic. I didnt get clinically diagnosed, though, because my mom wouldnt have it. She told me that I was doing it all for attention and she wouldnt have it. So I realized that I was way too underweight, and I should start eating again. I now find myself jumping up and down on the scale, 'cause as you know it is hard to maintain your 'ideal' weight. I do sometimes wish that i was that 90lb stick again, but then i realize that that is not healty both physically and mentally for me. So my advise to you is that since you KNOW and CAN lose weight. If you put your mind to it, you can do anything. So maybe have your mom help monitor your eating habits. Get out and join some activities at school or even by yourself(or do some by staying in, my personal favorite is Aerobics). Stop eating candy and drinking sugary things, snack on fruits and drink a lot of water. I beleive in you!! :) |
