it seems to me that your underwieght as it is. but if you want to make a HEALTHY habit for the future, try an oatmeal cookie with some fruit, or angel food cakes( these foods are low in fat and are i guess you can say guilt free) personalty i think you need to gain at least 10pounds. but this doesn't mean you should eat potato chips all day. it just means you need to increase your meat intake and protien and exercise a bit more that way you gain more muscle then fat. i hope i helped and if i didn't i'm sorry.

I'm not a professional but it sounds as though you may potentially be developing an eating disorder. Someone at your age, height, and weight shouldn't be so overly concerned with the possibility of gaining weight. It's fine to eat healthy as long as you're eating enough and getting the proper nutrition. At 5'3" and 83 pounds, you may be considered underweight. Try not to worry so much about your weight. If your anxieties about your weight seem to increase, you may want to seek professional help.

What I said was that you may be headed down that path, if you're not careful. People tell you you're skinny. You weigh 83 pounds yet you think you could always lose a few pounds. Would you feel more comfortable if you weight 70-something pounds? Even when you eat healthy you're worried about gaining weight. None of that is exactly normal.

I know how you feel. i mean i know i'm underwieght. (90lbs, 5ft 5.5inches i'm 15) but i'm concerened about how much wieght i gain at a time. because it's unhealthy if you gain like 10pounds a day. but you also have to think about if your doing activity. try stretching or jumping jacks everyday so you can increase your matablism or something. even if you want to gain/or loose yous still need exercise and a balanced meal plans everyday.

N'kay; im not saying you have an eating disorder, but like Boo said, you seem to be headed that way. Trust me, i can kinda understand where you're coming from, im a recovering bulimic, but so much anxiety about food is really not too healthy. I dont know to say to not make you feel that way, but try doing things for you, and building some self-esteem. Do you think this stuff Miiiiiiiight be maybe some issues you're having with other things that you're trasnslating to food?

ok i didn't read the other posts but you sound like the type of person who can eat an elephant and won't gain an ounce. don't worry untill you drastically start gaining weight.


..but I understand where you're coming from...

I never called you anorexic. What I said was that you may be headed down that path, if you're not careful. People tell you you're skinny.

Then this is just a thread so people can come and tell you you're not going to gain weight, so dont worry! because you wont listen to anything else.
