It's perfectly normal to feel that way. I hear really skinny people say that too. Of course that can lead to an eating disorder to get even skinnier. Please don't do that. God made you the way you were supposed to be. But if you really think you're fat, just eat right and get plenty of exercise. If you don't lose any weight, then you're fine the way you are. Don't be afraid to show the real you. And don't listen to people who give you put-downs, because they're just lying to you. God loves you, Cris, so never forget that.
