 Hi The first thing is you losing 2 stones is great well done. Now on to your friends they need to wise up not eating will cause major problems. I know this first hand I had a stomach problem at 16 and didnt eat for a year now my health is really bad. Im still underweight and am always quized on it by stranger which used to annoy me but now i dont pay any attention to them and either should you. Men dont want stick insects for partners they like something to cuddle. So dont stress so much about it eat healthy and exercise and you will become more confident with yourself which will interest men.I hope this helped good luck darling x

 Starvation doesn't work, your friends are foolish!
You have done so well by dieting and the weight you have lost will stay off. Any weight lost on a starvation diet will go back on very rapidly. Also by starving yourself you will cause problems with your hair skin, nails and teeth
Trust me I would much rather date a overweight girl with nice hair, nails and a healthy glow, than an under-weight little rat, with split ends, paper thin skin and yellowing finger nails, and teeth falling out due to receding gums.
Please don't starve yourself, it is dangerous, and will make you look unhealthy, your weight does not have all that much to do with your love life, that is all down to confidence. Get a make over buy some new clothes and get some friends that aren't so shallow and I bet you will find a guy in no time.
If you really need a boost getting down to your target weight, do some more physical activity as this will help burn any fat, tone you up and is good for your heart and lungs. Also exercise releases endorphins (Happy Chemicals) which make you feel good about yourself.
Us guys are more put off by a girls friends than they are by your size.

I know you often hear "It's what's inside that counts" But that really is true!Don't starve yourself, please! It is not good for you at all, can cause serious health problems and become an obsession. Your friends need some help because not eating does kill people. You're great as you, but If you really do want to lose weight then just keep dieting and exercising that way you can be healthy AND still lose weight :D Honestly don't just follow the crowd, more often that not you might regret it.
