    How can you make the call from your computer chair that this person is underweight and self starving without proper assessment? My intention and suggestion, would be, and is, that this person not be so worried about numbers, as you and the OP clearly are. This person could be quite healthy at this weight, but because someone told them they had to be X number of pounds, they are trying to achieve something , that yes, could potentially be dangerous. I am simply offering a different perspective, one that doesn't involve scale numbers.

    And even if the OP is not genuine, perhaps someone reading through may be inspired and think about weight loss in a new way.

    If you feel the need to continue our little back and forth, please do so as a PM, this thread genuine or not should be about helping some one who may need it.

    Bless.
    104lbs...and almost 5'9''
    Healthy? Riiiiiight...

    You're gaining weight because you need to.

    Go get professional help.
  • I just wanted to say a sincere thank you to everyone who replied to this post in a positive manner and did not start just calling me a troll

    After reading your comments i have realised that maybe i do need to get some help from some type of professional. So i made an appointment to see a dietician and am going this arfternoon. I am really hoping that after talking to them i can make a meal plan that is right for me and the right amount of calories.
    I really hope i can get healthy

    So thank you all

    Except the 'troll' accusers...i am NOT a troll...but HAVE used the comments from this page to make a decision that will hopefully lead me down the right path

    Thanks again everyone, and good luck!

    Either you are a troll or have a major eating disorder. Either way, you need help. I'm voting troll in which case you're really sad

    You need to eat a lot more and actually gain some weight. At 5' 8" the weight you are is far too low for you. Losing weight is not the healthy thing to do. Speak with a professional to set you up with an eating plan to help you GAIN weight so you become a healthy weight.

    *sighs*

    Hun, you either need help because you have an eating disorder or you need help because you have nothing better to do other than troll this site where real people are having real struggles to get to a healthy weight.

    Either way I hope you get the help you clearly need.

    Thats a bit unfair...she is clearly having a 'real struggle to get to a healthy weight' ... its just coming from the opposite direction :S

    I don't like how the poster said it either, but she is NOT "have a real struggle to get to a healthy weight". At her height and weight, she is underweight. She needs to be gaining and that is what her body is doing. As best it can on what she's giving it.
