gonna go straight to my point

am i anorexic underweight for my age? im 11 12 [im getting older] and im 40kg

even though its not proven in the clinic thing or whatever its called...all people say that to me and i feel so weird not bad cos its not proven plus u cant see my ribs or bones......in england all of the british people or who were born here...their weight r like overwight for their age and figure.
and i thought its probably cos im asian and all that kind of stuff

but all i want to know is if im still healthy and fit cos people say that by my weight

edit
im asian and i look way too skinny in front of my british friends
NEW EDIT
i have gained weight!!!wohoooo so im now 40!!!! i don't really care if im thin but rather prefer fat so eating alot ATM

[muchacha]

wth lol
anorexics are people who starve themselves on purpose,
and make themselves throw up. to the point where their stick skinny.

[~ BunnyliciouS ~]

^ Yeah.

The right sentence is

am i underweight for my age? im 11. 12 in 7days and im 35-40kg

your sig breaks the rules btw

better change it before the mod catches you and gives you a warning

[Anglian_Viking]

OMG I can pick you up with my right arm!

[LazyAzian]

Don't worry! It's probably just that your naturally thing, like me!

I'm a guy, 16, I'm short . . like 5'2? I weight 90 pounds, and I eat like a pig. My girl friends are jealous of me hahaha! "WHY ARE YOU SO THIN?!"

I can eat 3 large bowls of noodles and 7 slices of pizza.

[mwahai]

If you don't starve yourself or make yourself throw up, then you're fine.
I was 40kg when I was 11 too, and I was healthy.

[Honey.bee]

Are you american? If you are then your pretty underweight. I'm asian and I was 33.8 kgs when I was 11. o_o I always thought 35kgs was pretty much normal for that age, because people always used to make fun of me that I weigh alot. So I lost 2kgs by jumproping everyday and every minute. I honestly look kinda chubby that age..but I don't know.

no...the people that make themselves throw up are bulimics. And no, anorexics aren't those who starve themselves on purpose. you can starve yourself without being anorexic. Anorexia is an actual illness where you're delusional and constantly fear food and gaining weight.

To the topic starter, it sorta annoys me when people use the term "anorexic" too lightly. You're not anorexic unless you have the actual mental disorder. But you can be wannarexic, wannarexics are those girls who have all the "symptoms" of anorexia, but are mentally in control. Once you become mentally unstable and paranoid all the time, you should probably go see a doctor For now, you don't have to worry.

[mintcracker]

you're fine

now some 20 year olds...on the other hand =X

they're like 44 kg

that's effn disgusting

[daintymilk]

Your fine, because I think you haven't hit puberty yet. :S

[sky.blue]

no.
do you starve yourself?

..then no.
lols your weight is average

[monrada]

Don't forget that a healthy weight is in relation to your height too, not just your age.
But from the sounds of it no, you aren't anorexic and shouldn't be thinking such things at such a young age LOL

[ithinkitslove]

ahah i was around that weight too when i was 11 so don't worry
i'm 13 now btw lols

[LS1toSVT]

first off, anorexic means you do not eat. Do you eat? If yes, you are NOT anorexic. If no, you are anorexic and you have a totally more severe problem you need to get help with.

On to your issue, you may have a TOO fast metabolism which is a thyroid problem. Go to the doctor, only they can tell you this with testing.

[lindyy]

Narh. I think that's average? I def weighed under 40kg when i was 11 or 12.
And i didnt think i was skinny.. or was it cos i was short ..? HAHA
anyway i dont think u need to worry

[infinityx]

depends on your height, girl.


most korean actresses weight around 50kg at height of 5'6 something-- which would never happen to mere mortals like me. anorexic, maybe, underweight, definitely yes. some people are just naturally underweight because of their small frame and genes>__<

[skino]

it really depends how tall you are ~~
i have an 18 year old friend that weighs 37kg, but she's short and is definitely not anorexic haha.

and i dont get this 'anorexic for your age' business... if you're restricting what you eat at a dangerous level, you're anorexic, at whatever age.

[oh so asian]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with you.

First of all if you were anorexic, you wouldn't be posting this because anorexia is a psychological problem just as much as it is an eating disorder.

no...the people that make themselves throw up are bulimics. And no, anorexics aren't those who starve themselves on purpose. you can starve yourself without being anorexic. Anorexia is an actual illness where you're delusional and constantly fear food and gaining weight.

To the topic starter, it sorta annoys me when people use the term "anorexic" too lightly. You're not anorexic unless you have the actual mental disorder.

So totally agree.
Being "anorexic" is everywhere, when probably half the people here aren't/weren't anorexic to start with. I think people think that being anorexic means just being skinny and not eating when it's a much deeper, darker problem than that.

[PredictMe]

You're not anorexic unless you starve yourself or hate to eat or something like that.
My friend weights 38 kg until she's 14 [last year] and she's not anorexic. It's in her genes. The skinny gene.
I weight about 38-40 kg too when I was 12.
So no worry. You'll grow.

[rainbow snakes]

of course not ur not anorexic!!!
when i was 11 i was 35kg too but i was 4ft 9 inch so i was pretty short but anyway i'm asian too sooo we're suppose to be lighter then western people as we've got a smaller build
