Sudden Weight Gain - Help! Posted: 08-25-05 16:12pm
Hi everyone
i'm 13 years old, and for as long as I can
remember, people have always commented on
how skinny I am.
As most of you will know, it's the summer
holidays at the moment. Both my parents
are working, so I haven't been able to get
out of the house much. I clean everyday,
and walk to the shops and stuff. I eat
quite a lot of junk. I have a phobia of
being sick... I think if I eat too much
of something, or try something new, i'll
vomit, so I won't eat.
Only recently, i've noticed I seemed to
have gained weight overnight.
I've been getting diarrhoea quite a lot,
and sometimes I look thin again, but most
of the time my stomach is big and
squishy.
At first I though it was bloat, but my
stomach wouldn't be fatty, squishy if it
was.
It's really depressing me. I get picked
on a lot, and I really don't want to be
fat. I know that sounds really shallow,
but I just don't want to be.
I've started skipping meals, and only have
a two bars of chocolate everyday, and lots
of water.
Any other food I eat, I immediately go
fat.
Please, please help!

Well I guarantee you don't want to make a
meal out of two chocolate bars...My advice
is to eat more healthy foods. Like
salads and vegetables, fruit...When ur
young u have a fast metabolism so if u
just ate ur portion sizes and remained
active ud be fine!...Don't start
anorexia...Ur on the verge it sounds like.
But sweety, your young, young ones go
up and down with their weight all the time
because ur body is growing all the time
and it will keep growing and u will get
taller and any baby fat will go away.
Its all about being active, water and
candy bars definately wont help ur weight
problem. You should be living! Not
worrying about your weight sweety!
I have been bulimic for a year now and it
is no fun! I guarantee if you start an
eating disorder...You wont be able to stop
and it will take over your life and you
will hate urself. I hate that I do this
to myself, my body doesnt deserve it but
im slowly working on it.
