I'm 11 years old, I lost weight & I have some questions?!


Question: I'm 11 years old, I lost weight & I have some questions?
Well, I'm 11 (12 soon though), and my self esteem has dropped. I'm a size 10, but I've recently lost weight (Don't know how much, but my 'baby fat' really) and I haven't bought new clothes since before I lost it so it's possible I'm an 8 now. Is that an okay size? Also, before I lost weight I was 125 pounds or something I think, is that really fat? My Mum says you can weigh more than you look, some people are just built that way but it's just some girls in my class probably still fit in their 7-8 girls clothes while I'm going through puberty & my periods. Oh and I do have curves, quite a big chest and fat bottom. My legs are quite large too but they're starting to tone. I also have quite a few spots on my face (When I say a few, I mean quite a lot) it's not acne though, I don't think. Anyway, do you think I'm okay? Please help me. I'm also quite big built & curvy like I said but still.

Answers:

First know this.. you are not fat at all. Your still growing and evening out in proportion, and its impossible right now to see what you'll look like in the future. At your age, you shouldn't worry about how much you weigh or what size clothes you wear. Go out and have fun, because everyone is beautiful no matter what size! Plus, when you start junior high.. you'll be happy that you have awesome curves! The little skinny girls will be jealous of you and you'll love having a great figure to show off! But for now, I know it might seem unfair, but its just your body changing and you will even out! As long as you live a healthy lifestyle and eat good foods you have nothing to worry about with all this dieting and losing weight! Healthy is not being stick thin! About the spots on the face thing.... if it hurts and is really red then its probably a pimple, but if not, then it could be something else to look into. But, if it is pimples..dont worry, doctors can help you moderate and control little things like that. In the mean time, dont stress about you weight. You are beautiful just as you are!



you're beautiful just the way you are. weight is a thing that shouldn't matter, if you're still growing (which you most likely are) you'll grow taller and look thinner but still keep the same weight. just try to stay healthy, think positive and be yourself. :-)

I went through similar experiences growing up



why are you losing weight? this is not healthy. Your going through puberty which is perfectly normal honestly your worrying about nothing be happy in your own skin and people will be happy too :) curvy is better than being too skinny!
