Every one Says i have a eating disorter?

Hi Michaela. You are definitely underweight, and if you don't believe me, check out this weight calculator from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (a federal government agency): http://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/adu...

Normal weight for your height is 101 - 136 pounds.

Anorexia is a serious problem, and it could haunt you for the rest of your life. It can stop you from menstruating and lead to life-threatening health problems. Does that sound "perfect" to you? What kind of gymnast or model will you be if you end up in the hospital?

Let me tell you something. You are perfect as you are, and you don't need to be skinny to be perfect.

Are you concerned about being attractive to guys? Because from my experience, as an attractive older woman, there are MANY, MANY guys who prefer women who are NOT skinny. Probably the majority of guys. What are they attracted to? A confident woman. A healthy woman. And real curves!

Remember -- use your brain. The fashion industry wants one thing from you, young lady. Your money. These guys in suits want you to feel insecure so you keep buying their diet drinks, getting plastic surgery and buying clothes too small for you. You are nothing but a consumer to them. A number. Don't let them take away your confidence, your poise and your natural beauty.

My recommendation: Go on a media diet. Stay away from all fashion and women's magazines and try not to watch too much TV. Spend time outside. When you eat something, really savor every bite. Stay off soda and diet crap and just make sure you include lots of fresh fruits & vegies in your diet, plus water. Go to a farmer's market and let all your senses come alive. Enjoy eating food again!

And most important, love yourself. Stand in front of the mirror and tell your body that you love every single part of you, including every part you normally criticize. Literally say it out loud. I tell you, I have done this before and it's like magic. Love yourself. Forgive yourself for starving your body. Love life. And don't let a big corporation destroy the wonderful life you have ahead of you. I wish you the best.

Maybe Gain Like 9 Pounds And You'll Be Good

And You Only eat 700-500 Calories??? That Not Good For You

The Human Body Needs At Least A 1000 Calories to Function

Your Heading Towards An Eating Distorter

You do have an eating disorder. As a gymnast you are an athlete and you are heading towards major muscle breakdown and brittle bones due to the calories you are consuming. You are working out as a gymnast, you should be eating minimum 1200-1500 calories a day just to maintain your weight.

What's happening now is that your body is feeding itself off your muscles - one of these days you are going to land wrong or have a bad fall and your gymnastics career will be over - and you could potentially be crippled.

If you're scared that you have an eating disorder, you should see a doctor. Seriously. I've been struggling with anorexia for almost two years, and if you truly do have an eating disorder, trust me, there is BETTER. Anorexia sucks and it honestly doesn't matter how skinny you are. Obviously someone 30 lbs overweight isn't anorexic, but you are very thin and eating disorders are so dangerous. If you don't want to go to a doctor, at least talk to someone about it. But from my own experiences, I recommend seeing a doctor because you could have damaged your body -- with things like osteopenia/osteoporosis, anemia, hypertension, etc.
