Please help! ..I think I have a weight/medical health problem! Basically I struggle to eat main meals, I can't eat breakfast cos it makes me feel ill, I spend all day snacking on all sorts of foods but I don't like eatig in front of people! My boyfriend an friends always tell me I'm so skinny but I feel fat..I think my stomache sticks out and my legs are flubbery! ..Im obbessessed with my weight and once I weighed myself an it said I was 8 stone and I cried about it! I always feel tired and I get moody all the time and I hate it but I can't help myself! What do I do?

Yes! Go see a doctor!

No! You're just paranoid

Its just called being a teenage girl!

Theres nothing wrong with the way you eat

Mostly, I think you just need to exercise (which will make you hungry and then you will eat more). There is something called "skinny fat" which means you are naturally skinny but not fit. I was like you. I thought my stomach was sticking out etc. So I exercised. I eat more now and healthier. I fell less tired and overall just better. But you should see a dr regardless to see what they think.

i think if you thought all by yourself that you have a medical health problem then you should talk to a therapist.

don't worry about what people say for one. people come in a lot of variations of size you get what your dealt. eat what you want when you want or need it. I don't believe in having 3 meals a day is that great anyhow. I feel its better to have several snack size meals daily as your body calls for it to obtain energy when its needed. when you feel tired try eating some fruits and salads.

I'm not sure if you'd qualify as anorexic, but you clearly have some issues around eating and body image that you should attempt to resolve.

"breakfast makes me ill"

"i feel fat (at 112 lbs)

not eating enough to feel okay (that's why you're tired, moody ... and have a low metabolism)

not wanting to eat in front of people

just eat fruit, it will cut fat and give you energy.
