just a rant...

People can really suck sometimes. Even if you are absolutely perfect they will find something to pick at. You don't look anorexic to me...you look skinny. It's not a crime to weigh less than other people. I dropped the girl I considered my best friend for years because she was naturally bigger than me...she's German and I'm half Chinese/half little white lady(my mom, lol) so OBVIOUSLY I'm going to be smaller. She was ALWAYS comparing herself to me and making me feel awful because my genetics made me petite.

Anyhow, I think as long as you are healthy there is nothing wrong. From what you are saying you don't FEEL healthy. I agree with getting a second opinion and getting yourself feeling heavy. I have a friend that was the same way...if she wanted to gain weight she HAD to work out. She ate all the time and ate lots of foods that would be fattening for anyone else and never gained weight unless she was working out. So...good luck! I hope you get to a point where you can ignore the crap out of ignorant, shallow people and just be glad you're here and healthy.

Hey "Pampers" I'm happy to loan you some of my butt! I have plenty to go around.

I agree with Tab, after seeing the most hideous pics of models who for some reason the fashion industry deem beautiful and "perfect" and also seeing Nicole Ritchie's downhill slide and whichever Olsen twin--you do not look anorexic--you just look skinny. Compared to me most everyone is skinny lol!

I think you would do very well with the food journal, they are amazing for more than losing weight--they also help you figure out what you might be allergic or sensitive too as well. So I say log your food intake and the calories and fats and carbs and see what you come up with.

BTW I like your hair and glasses.

They called me "shoulder pads" in high school because I have very broad shoulders and I started out pretty short. I had the same thing happen when I was 16 - I grew about five inches in less than a year and everything got a little better.

You don't really look that skinny to me. But then again, I have little stick legs...so what's normal to me is probably much different than normal to other people. You definitely are not anorexic.
