I Struggle With My Body Image

Nobody hate on me please, but honestly I feel fat. I have huge hips bones that make me curvy, I don't want to be curvy. I want to be thin, where if I'm in a relationship, a guy can pick me up with no problem. I feel like I weigh everyone down because when I go out to eat I always get a salad and when I don't, the amount of guilt I have is excruciating. I don't make myself throw it up or anything, I don't cut myself, but I just hate my body. I wear glasses too, getting contacts in a week. I hate my face too, if that makes sense. Just my whole body I hate. My hair is frizzy and wavy, I hate it. Almost everyone I know says they want my hair and body, but if they had it I think they would be in the position I am.

    You're body and face will be in transition for awhile. You will eventually like it. If you see a different face or body when you gaze into the mirror, check twice, you might be in front of a window.

    You are very beautiful person! You are as beautiful & unique as a snow flake. Its hard being a teenager with the preasure looking thin and (someone elses idea of Beautiful) beautiful. You dont have to look like a victoria secret model to be beautiful. 80% of your real beauty is inside of you your personality. You know I have met girls that were beautiful on the outside but UGLY on the inside and because of this it made them ugly on the outside. I've been in 3 relationships I've had sex with 4 girls and thats more than I ever thought I would ever be with cause I thought I wasnt attractive enough to get a girlfriend. You just have to have confidence in yourself and believe in who you are as a person. I can name at least 3 actress that in my eyes started out maybe cute but grew up into some very attractive young girls. (AnnaSophia Robb, dakota fanning, & Emma Watson) They have all grown into very beautiful young women. You will do the same you will meet someone that will love you for who you are and what you have to offer them.

    There is a differece between feeling and being. Always remember that. You feel, it is something that will go away with time. Granted I did not feel fat when I had a female. Anyway, you likely have no more weight to lose... unless you want to cut out your breasts.
