Rebecca,

Many, many people have unrealistic or unhealthy ideas of how they look. A lot of the time, they're wrong. If people are telling you that you are wrong, especially doctors, and are expressing worry for you, you might want to take a step back and evaluate your thoughts and behaviors. Maybe you need a little help to do that, and that's alright--talk to your dad or ask to see a counselor. It's never too early to help yourself, Rebecca.

I think a lot of people make promises to themselves that they later go on to break. I know I've done it, and sometimes it's okay and sometimes I regret it. What I've learned, though, is that life is about changing, and I can always make positive change in my life. So can you. If you are unhappy with who you have become, now is the best time to begin making a conscious effort towards rebuilding your life in a way that will make you proud. You deserve that.

I can't tell you if you have an eating disorder or if you do not, but a doctor can. It may be worth seeing someone.

Let me know if you need to talk. I'm always around. Take care.
