Don't assume that all skinny people have never had a weight problem.I was anorexic from age 10 to 13. When i was 8 - 9 i weighed 120 pounds and was always teased about my weight. I felt terrible, like a lump and always awkward and ugly! Now my weight is stable and i am only a few pounds below my recomended weight. So i look skinny and i still have an eating problem (i hate to eat!) but i still feel exactly the same way inside as i did when i was fat!
