ARGH frustration!

Okay so I'm 15 and 5'7". I weigh about 123-124 and have a healthy BMI. I weighed from about 132-135 before I wanted to lose a little weight. So I've lost about 8 lbs generally. So why don't I feel satisfied? I eat well for the most part (sometimes I have binging moments, but not often) and I exercise, not extensively but I do exercise. But I feel guilty after eating almost all the time! It's not a good feeling at all. If I eat say an apple or raspberries, I feel good. But about 20 minutes ago I had some Farina hot cereal with honey and soymilk. Altogether it was a mere 210 calories, and I'd only had 450 calories before that. So now I'm at 660 calories for 4 o'clock. So why do I feel guilty?? It seems like an innocent enough thing to eat! I can't live on fruit alone but my emotions don't seem to be in check with what I mentally know is right. Am I becoming too obsessed? I think I'm already past obsessed! What should I do?? And thanks for taking the time to read about my stupid issues.

I think you're getting too obsessed with keeping your calories low.  The fact that you're feeling guilty when you haven't even eaten enough to remain healthy indicates that you're on the way to problems.  Try to let go of the tight hold you have on calories; it will only make things worse if you keep paying s much attention to them.

This guilt that you're feeling is a psychological thing, not a physical thing.  No matter what you do about your eating habits, it won't make you feel better.  Try figuring out why you're so obsessed about the calories and whether or not this is justified.  Talk to your parents or friends about it and ask them what they think.

Okay. That sounds pretty serious. I'll definatly talk to someone. Thanks!

I sure hope that you do talk to someone!  Child, what is your reasoning for wanting to lose weight?  You look very healthy to me right now! I probably would have killed if at the age of 15, on ONLY weighed what you do right now.  Please get back to us!
