I always feel fat and unhappy. Anorexia was my solution....

by Katniss
(Christchurch)

I am 12 years old, i am 5'5 and between 117-125lbs (56kgs).

I only started feeling fat last year. All of my friends are shorter and much skinnier than me, All day long i cant concentrate, i just think about how badly i was skinny legs and a flat stomach. i have a pretty facce but its my body that i hate. Last year i was anorexic and i still haven't told my family about it. i didn't eat breakfast or lunch, and then when i came home from school i would eat a tiny part of dinner. i didn't lose any weight a i got very very very depressed and self-concious. i dont have anorexia anymore but i'm still unhappy.

i feel like i eat way too much. i eat breakast, lunch and dinner with some snacks. i try to cut down on how much i eat but everytime i open the fridge, i have to eat.
i'm also concerned because i am the same height as my 15 year old sister and i think i weigh more than her. she is about 115lbs (52kgs).

PLEASE COMMENT. help me please, i am very upset what should i do. i go for a one mile run everyday

The Lord Jesus Christ Cares
by: Antelop 7

I want you to know that the Father Loves you so much and accepts you the way He created you; even now that you are going through this tough time. The Lord Jesus Christ alone can set you free and give you the Power to gain control over all your fears.
Do you want to know the plan God has for you? Prosperity.
The plan of God for you is for you to prosper, His plan is not to harm you, but for you to have an expected end. {Jeremiah 29:11}

Do you want to know how God thinks about you?
He loves you. {John 3:16} For God so love you, that His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, if you believe in your heart that Jesus is the son of God sent forth by God Himself to be the propitiation for all your sins, through faith in Jesus blood when He died on the cross of Calvary, Then you shall not perish but have everlasting life. For God sent Jesus Christ into the world for you not to condemn you, but that through Jesus Christ You might be saved from the wrath of God against the Judgment day of God{ Romans 3:25}

Do you want to know the purpose of God for you? Salvation.
God purpose for you is that you be saved. God wants to save you by offering to receive the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Way, Truth, and Life. The Lord Jesus has already lived the perfect life god wants from you, so all you have to do is receive Jesus, who did all the work for you. Jesus is already the only acceptable sacrifice to God.

Do you also want to know what the barrier between you and God is? Sin {Romans
2:23; 6:23} For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
But I know you will like to know the good news, and what the Lord has done for you. The Lord Jesus Has died for all your sins, and has the power to forgive you all your sins before God you have committed.
Now I know the Lord is leading you to receive Him as your personal Lord and Savior. All you have to do is talk to the Lord. Tell God that you agree with Him, and that you have sinned. Then ask God to forgive you for all your sins, and thank Him for sending His Son to die for your sins on the Cross. Ask the Lord Jesus to come into to life and heart, to become your Lord and Savior, and conform you into the Image and likeness of God in Jesus name.
