Holding a girl is no fun, if there's nothing there to hold! Considering your height, I think you're just about right. Don't listen when doctors say that you are overweight; they think everyone is overweight.
Try to get out and meet people, and be active. Eat healthy, and maintain an active lifestyle. Try getting involved as a volunteer somewhere. Habitat for Humanity may be a good place to start, or maybe your local rescue mission. You'll feel a lot better when you're out and about concentrating on the needs of others, rather than yourself.

If you are throwing up your food then you have an eating disorder. Get help for it. It won't help you lose weight, it is simply a disease of your mind. if you want proof that it won't help then put "John Prescott" into google. He's a British politician who recently admitted bulimia. He is not thin.
Your metabolism has probably slowed as your body is now used to being starved and abused. So every calorie it gets, it puts straight into fat because it doesn't know when it's going to get its' next one. It's in starvation mode.
Eat regular healthy meals and your body will relax a bit and give you a bit more energy rather than just storing it away and telling you to sleep.
When you get that energy then exercise! Go for walks in the park, look at the trees changing colours, take a neighbour's dog out.
There is no better way than to lose weight than healthy eating and exercise.
And get rid of your mirror. It is not your friend.
Good Luck!! xx

reader, anonymous, writes (16 September 2008): Having suffered in the past from deppression myself,and weight gain. I do understand the way you are feeling.It seems the weight gain is making you very low at the moment.So I suggest you tackle that.If you can afford to join weight watchers or similar organisation,where you will meet lovely people in the same position.They will chat to you and compare problems also you will have the support of your leader. Once you start your diet from day one you will feel you are starting to tackle the situation.Then you will start to feel better. Good luck Ann
