Hi -
Ever since last September, I've decided to lose weight. I'm 13 years old, and have lost 27 pounds.

People always say how skinny I am, but when I look in the mirror, I don't see me as skinny... I just see an ugly, disgusting, chubby me.

I'm also super obsessed with food... I'm into food network, but in never cook anything from it. I daydream about food, and I collect recipes.

I've read a little bit about eating disorders, and these things are some symptoms of it. Do you know any more about eating disorders? Any advice concerning this would be helpful.

Having been anorexic myself and going through nursing school, I think I have first hand experience. What else would you like to know?

Let's see. Are you a girl? What are your grades? Are you a good kid that obeys your parents or one that rebels? These questions are important.

No, those questions were not irrelevant. They are common among people with eating disorders.

Also this is a 4 year old thread that is now closed. Please check your dates prior to responding in any way.
