Do I have a problem?

[Anonymous]

I think I'm fat.

Logically I know I'm not. But I look in the mirror and all I see is fat.

Medically I'm not even average. I'm 15% body fat. I'm 105 lbs. I'm 5'3. I have a thigh gap. I know that medically I'm not fat.

But all I can see is fat when I look in the mirror. Today I burned 800 calories at the gym because I felt I looked fat. I do abs every day. I don't eat a lot. But still, all I see is fat. I hate that parts of me jiggle when I walk.

My boyfriend tells me I'm not fat. Everyone says I'm skinny. But I just don't see it.

Lately I've been having to talk myself into eating and out of force puking. Which is why I'm afraid my desire to be thin and in shape may have drifted to the unhealthy side...

What do I do?

You should talk to someone because you're right thats not healthy you shouldn't feel that way. You could have body dysmorphic disorder, a lot of people with eating disorders have it. You see your body in a way that isn't accurate. You should definitely talk to someone now though before it gets out of control! :(

You need to see a psychologist.

Though I have a question, when you throw up does it ever come out through your nose a bit? I have that problem and want to make it stop. Its a horrible feeling
