(weight) Mentally (help)
Posted: 09-03-06 16:26pm

Hi

my name is james

(im male)

from the age of 15 I used to weigh 15 stone,but now im 17years old and weigh 12 stone and im 5ft11 ive been told thats the average weight for my height.But im always getting down because im I feel fat but I know im not fat,its hard to explain

why do I get like this ?


It really gets me down and also its starting to get my girlfriend down too.


When I was 15 years old I got the weight of being 15stone by watching movies and getting sweets n etc every day after school and not enough excersise but I met my girlfriend on the internet and I thought to my self ive got to loose weight or other wise she wont like me but in her case she used to say it doesnt matter if your fat I like you for who you are.So I lost 3 stone in 3-5 months I know its rather quick but it made me happy when I lost weight.


Basically im afraid of getting fat again thats why I have them symptoms above but how can I get rid of thinking that way......

okay i would first like to say that the best idea is to talk to a therapist, they may not work how you want but later on YOU yourself figure out the problem because they open your eyes to something you dismissed

ok what you have i am not sure the name at all, CAN turn into an eating disorder so please do not take this issue as being just a fear. it is okay to be fat, as long as you can carry out every day activities. you need to start believing it yourself, not just saying it to be okay. also i would like to add it is better to be fat than have anorexia or bulimia, as long as your gaining wait just cuz you dont eat the healthiest of things. also you need to talk to people, like friends and family. they might see things about you that you overlooked that maybe the cause maybe when you were fat people made fun of you, making a phobia out of weight.

the last thing is never ever if you are called fat believe them, only you can judge what is fat to you and NO being a beam pole is not "perfect"

if you need more help pm me

I'm a girl but I know how you feel. I'm afraid to get fat. It's not because others won't like me, though, it's because I wouldn't like me.

I've found it's okay to stay thin if you go about it in the right ways. Never don't eat, but do stop eating sweets and greasy foods. This way even if you're not fat but you feel to should still 'try not to be' you'll be doing something without harming your body.

Also exercise! This makes me feel better. Good luck, and pm me if you have any questions.
