Hey, here's the thing. I know I'm eating less than I'm supposed. This summer my parents and I started Weight Watchers(not attending meetings just the diet, which is basically just a good balanced diet.) Well, you get a certain number of points and I'm not eating enough of them for my body weight and age. And I'll be honest, I hate my body and feel fat and have thought about just not eating. But I do even though I don't want to. I just don't eat as much as I should(and I seriously just don't want anymore food, like tonight I've had like 17 of 26points and I'm not hungry). Anyway, I THINK my dad thinks that I'm gonna develop an eating disorder. He keeps telling me that I have to eat. And today at lunch my mom asked, "Did you eat all of it?" I said, "Yes" and then I had to show her my empty bowl. I get they're concerned but it makes me paranoid. I guess I'm asking: Do I have a problem cause I don't eat as much as I "should"?
Thanks

 

You might not necessarily have a problem, but you could be developing one. The best thing to do is express your concern to one of your parents. Tell your mom that you're confused by the fact that you don't get hungry anymore and that you don't have much interest in food. She can help you mix up your diet so that you might be more interested in eating. Whatever you do, you DON'T want this to develop into an eating disorder, which would be very serious. You might even try going off of Weight Watchers and eating what you want for awhile. The best thing is to talk to a parent or even a doctor. If you're really not hungry at all, you might even have a minor health issue. Just talk to your parents for the best advice!
