Does the change in your eating habits, being underweight and thinking your thighs are fat triggering old habits from bulimia?
What the...?
What is with some of these (always the same) people on MFP diagnosing eating/mental health disorders at every other person that posts a new topic. Stop it. Last time I checked it's myfitnesspal not myfitnessamateurpsychiatrist . For heaven's sake.
Read her profile please.

If that's you in your pic, I think you may have body dysmorphic disorder, because your thighs are not fat - AT ALL. Agree with other posters who emphasize strength training as a focus. I think you will like the results. Good luck! :flowerforyou:
Another one! Are you qualified to be making diagnoses regarding another person's mental health? I think not. Jesus.0 -

Leave Jesus out of this. They were not diagnosing..just giving their opinion. Keywords you may have missed "I think".0 -

And there are people that will jump in and escalate a rather laid back thread. Hmmmm....0 -
Lift heavy weights and talk to a therapist about body dysmorphia. That's what I would do.0

OP, you are too thin and your thighs are not fat. I'm looking at your picture. I think you might have body dysmorphic disorder. Your thighs are quite thin. Stop losing weight immediately.0

My apologies. No I'm not qualified. Go ahead and get stuck in. Why, it's your responsibility to!
I'm sure there's nothing wrong with middle-aged men discussing a teenager's mental health on a public forum.... Absolutely not. Oh no.
What is wrong with you?0 -

As far as I know, only adults should be on this forum. So please stop hijacking the thread. No one is attacking the OP. We are trying to help her by giving her opinions and our advice. If you read her profile, she suffered from bullemia and looking at her pictures, there is a high chance she could suffer from Body Dysmorphia.0 -

Relax. It's way too early to be calling in reinforcements... :smooched:I'm sure there's nothing wrong with middle-aged men discussing a teenager's mental health on a public forum.... Absolutely not. Oh no.
I don't think anyone is trying to harm this girl. We're all trying to help.

Based on her profile, it was a legitimate question. Not everyone needs you to protect them. When someone has recently recovered from an eating disorder, and they are asking about "being fat but underweight", inspiring them to do a self assessment of their mental state is not uncalled for.
You may not realise how many members of this site are suffering/have suffered from eating disorders. There are lots, and they are usually young women. The question was to help - not to attack.0 -

You're kind of abrasive. And kind of missing the (very important) point that was being made.0 -

Well, I'm not really middle aged. And she is an adult. You believing that it is creepy is your issue, no one else's.
Also, this forum largely lacks dieticians, physiologists, OBGYNs, trainers, relationship therapists, etc, yet opinions are given all of the time. So really, what is your deal?0 -

What is wrong with you?
I really don't know. Maybe I should ask some people who never finished high school to give me a diagnosis....
I think it is pretty safe to say that as an adult site, most of the people here have graduated high school.
Please stop derailing.0 -
All of you shut the hell up right now and stop derailing this thread with your bickering. Please.
This girl has a BMI under 18 and her thighs are very slim and she thinks they're huge and jelly-like and is obsessively trying to whittle them down to nothing. You don't need to be a shrink to see that this fits the criteria for body dysmorphia. No one here is giving a professional diagnosis.
If your friend tells you he wants to kill himself, do you need to be a psychiatrist to suggest to him that he might have depression? *eyeroll*0 -

I just want to say, that it is possible to hold an adult conversation in which parties may not agree, without resorting to insults. I hope that you can figure out what is wrong so that you can be happier with yourself :flowerforyou:0 -

I would urge you to do a self-assessment of your 'snark' levels. Let me know how you go on! :-)
Whoa. There was no snark in that post. Please read it again, in a kinder voice.0 -
Op: Is your mother pear-shapped? Mine is. I had to accept the fact that I am naturally shapped this way. So even as I continue to build lean muscle and improve my body composition, my thighs, glutes, and hips will always be shapped that way. But that's okay. I've noticed that men (in my experience) tend to like women with some curves. Especially booty curves! So love your body, but continue to treat yourself right by lifting weights. Weight lifting is great for your body as it strengthens your muscles and encourages your bones/joints to become more dense! <-- That is why i talk calcium and lift heavy stuff, for my bones! Good luck to you!0

Anyway, OP, as others have said, you do not need to lose weight. If you are not happy with your body composition, try incorporating some lifting into your routine. Please make sure you fuel your workouts with a decent amount of calories.
You're really pretty and I hope you are able to see that, soon.0 -
