    well, at least you on this site and you are trying to do something about it. Think less about thin and more about healty.

    You'd be surprised at how many thin girls wish they had some thickness to them. I'm sure you are completely beautiful. FYI... I hate my arms too. And my stomach. And the fact that I have no neck. But I'm working to change those things. And the fact that your here leads me to believe that you are too.

    As others have said - focus on the positives. And congrats on being here. I feel your pain. Both of my sisters are gorgeously healthy thin, with golden tans, well endowed womanly parts (ok, boobs), and beautiful long, blonde, shiny straight hair.

    I got the overweight, white skin, flat chested, brown hair genes... and no, I'm not adopted! :laugh:

    i totally understand where your coming from. my mom and sister are same height as me and weight about 50 pounds less than me. i feel so self conscious around them. but i take solisis in the fact that my mom has not had a cookie in 3 years. I just love cookies and if the price of being as thin as them is not eating cookies, i would rather be a little pudgier. i do have weight to loose but i need to be able to see all my ribs. my sister and mom are always sick too, so if being a little pudgier means never getting sick i am ok with that.
    just try to focus on your self and being healthy not skinny.
