Yes.

Eat a little something every 3 or 4 hours, starting early in the morning.

Also, get active if you can.
30 minutes a day, maybe 4 days a week. Exercise boosts your metabaolism, even when you're not exercising.

Hey, I don't do it because it's the most effective method of weight loss, I do it because putting the littlest ounce of food past my lips makes me feel like a worthless little piggy.

Actually, Ninti, once the body is running out of body fat to burn, it'll start using muscle for energy. So she could lose some muscle as well.

Rule 1. A Myrrh is not a piggy and is certainly not worthless.

Uh, no. Diabetes isn't a mental problem. Unless of course you're Turk and use it to get free sandwiches.

I'm the most emotionally unstable child I know. I really think I have a problem, but everyone just thinks I'm trying to get attention.

I do that all the time.
It's great fun.

And i keep writing 3's instead of E's.
But i don't think that's a mental problem either.
Just sloppy work.
It's great fun too though.

I can't use it to get free sandwiches. I don't work at a hospital. Although if I did, then I would.

I have no friends amongst the humans. I live in a cave. The cave is my home. I live in a cave. I have no family, I have no authority. My food is whatever cave food I may scrounge from the cave floor; my drink is cave water from the cave rivers; my illumination is none. Each day full of silence, each day full of silence. Each day full of darkness, each day full of darkness. There are eyeless fish. The eyeless fish are not my friends. The eyeless fish are too insolent to be my friends. There are cave crickets. The cave crickets are not my friends. The cave crickets are too insolent to be my friends. There are bats. The bats are not my friends. The bats are too insolent to be my friends. There are gypsum formations. The gypsum formations are my true friends. The gypsum formations are my true friends and I shall stay behind them for as long as I survive. As long as I survive, as long as I survive. For the gypsum formations are not insolent. They live in silence, they live in silence. They are not insolent, unlike the cave animals. They live in silence. As do I. All live in silence. The cave is a cave in which all live in silence. The cave is a cave of silence. The cave is a cave of darkness. The cave is a cave in which I live. The cave is my home, the cave is my home.

Dude, I eat pretty little myself. I mean, not as little as you, but enough for me to live comfortably. And I am a healthy 114 pounds. To be honest, though, I could use some ab toning. ;)

Reread that. I thought she meant that at first too. She's saying anytime she put any food in her mouth, she feels like that.

Normally, I'd think this is hot, but...ick. I guess the "people you know" factor comes in.

Let me put it this way:

I'd rather feel horribly guilty every time I eat than gain weight.

And I would gain weight if I started eating right. I exercise a lot already; it's just that I undereat, too.

Keep in mind that I'm not an overweight person who's trying to reach a healthy weight. I'm a healthy person who's trying to become underweight.

But you see, that's what's baffling us. You're a healthy weight now, so why would you want to put yourself through that?

But then again, by posting it here, at least you are acknowledging it as a problem.

What you might want to do is take a rational approach to your weight issue. Figure out what a healthy weight for you is, and give yourself a 5 or 10 pound leeway around it. And if you start to veer out of the boundary, make adjustments in your eating and exercise.

In other words, let your mind be the barrier between you and a potential weight problem, rather than the unhealthy feelings of guilt and shame. If anything, the guilt and shame you speak of are much more dangerous to you as a person than a perceived weight problem can be.

But, you see, I don't WANT to be healthy. I want to be thin. Very thin.

So, while the weight I'm at is fine for most people, it's not for me. And whatever my "healthy weight" might be, my actual aspirations are under that number.

Just to put this in perspective, I'm 5'4" and weigh 120 pounds. I'd like to weigh 100 pounds at the most, but I wouldn't ease up on my diet unless I got down to around 95 pounds.

I can't be happy with myself until I'm skinny. I've tried using logic, but it just can't work for me.

Well, why is that? Why do you feel the need to be skinny? It is a problem, but if you can find the source of it, maybe you'll see it's really not what you want.

In that case, you need serious help. A therapist or psychiatrist. Just like Ju said, there has to be a root cause of this way of thinking you have, and a professional might be able to help you find it.
