Reply from Elizabeth, Age 16 - 11/19/00 - IP#: 209.253.136.66I have that exact same problem. I'm also 5'3" and between 130-140 pounds. I don't play sports but i still try to stay active. I ALWAYS compare myself to my friends. I have 2 friends that are very skinny, one weighs about 95 pounds and she's 5'1" and the other weighs about 102 pounds and she's 5'4". They both get annoyed whenever I compare myself to them and they tried to tell me that being skinny is worst than being fat. Umm no! How could they even think that? In the past year, i have actually lost almost 30 pounds, but i still feel really fat. I'm not the type of person that would get an eating disorder and i don't believe in most diets, i just wish there was a way for me to lose weight fast without hurting myself in the process. (by the way, i don't even know how i lost the 30 pounds, it's a little weird that it just disappeared all of a sudden). |
