It's so reassuring to know that I am not the only one who deals with
some of these same issues. Although many of us struggle, at least
we aren't alone.

I am definately underweight. Ive been under weight for along time and mostly b.c. from the emet. I dont think I am annorexic b.c I hate being skinny and I wish I could gain weight. It just never happens.
*Mandi*
I am underweight due to emet. After I eat, I want a drink to relax my digestion and not think about feeling full. I've had issues with feeling full and not liking tight clothes around my stomach that I wore overalls for years. Plus I had been a vegetarian for 14 years but recently craved red meat [probably a natural nutritional body craving] so I have been loving red meat for 10 days!
I think I'm normal .. I voted for normal =p
I'm 5'2 (i think!) and weigh 8 stone .. something .. I'm a size 8-10 in trousers and 10 in tops.. so I'm not like skinny but not like fat .. so yeah .. normal =]

Im still underweight right now, from the eating problems, but i have been gaining which i wanted, i have put on about 3 pounds this month, im meant to be gaining a pound a or two a week, well thats what they wanted me to gain as an in-patient, so the way to stay out going in there is trying to eat and gain some weight.
TEA!! IS AMAZING!!
indeed it is! :]

Usually avergae, but slightly underweight at the moment. All because of this phobia...I don't eat much. Well, that and my kitchen is infested and I don't have money to really eat out.
I know it's difficult for most of us to be relaxed and eat whatever our stomach feels like eating. It's when I'm least stressed that I eat the most, because I'm happy and I don't dwell much about any consequences, and my appetite also increases. Unfortunately lately my life has been quite stressful that's why I lost a few kilos, but hopefully slowly, very slowly, I ll gain them back again.
I think that we should try to moderate, eat food that is healthy and safe, and remember, that eating can be a real pleasure!
i've always been slightly underweight for my height, ever since i was small, think its just the way i'm built, i know in myself when i feel healthy.
I am skinny and I train a lot. I think I have eating issues as well,
not only because I have emet. I am pretty sure that if I didn't have
emet, I'd be bulimic.
You only live once
i am overwieght

I'm 5'3 and around 110 lb. So I'm guessing that's about average.
I said average- I've put on a bit of weight that I'd like to lose... I'm 5"8, and 60 kilos (130 pounds)... Argh I hate weighing this much though! I tend to eat less when I'm anxious... at my lowest point I was probably 50 kilos (110 pounds), and looked really sickly and gross.
Hey Glitta, isnt that about normal for that height?
I put underweight, because I think I'm a tad under the normal weight for my height. (Im not quite sure what the normal weight is but I think maybe 125-130?)
Im 5'7" and weigh about 116-120 (in between there somewhere).

Yeah it's normal- but you have to take into account that my weight is basically all fat and no muscle [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]so I'm kinda flabby right now. I guess I mean I need to tone up rather than lose weight.
I'm pretty small weight wise, I'm 5'8 and weigh 111 lbs. I just have a very high metabolism. I don't have any sort of ed though. I love to eat and I have a decent body image. I would like to gain 10lbs.
I have just lost 38 lbs with Weight Watcher, they helped me put food in its place...I am 5" 8' and weigh 148...I fight with food every day...I feel better skinny
im a little under average, but not completely underweight.
I am slightly overweight and doing Weight Watchers also. At 5'4", I weigh 156. My goal is 130 by my wedding in July!

I'm definitly obese...working on, but still obese My emet doesn't affect my eating unless I'm extremely n or someone in my house is sick, or I've been around someone that I need to start worrying over.
Well, I dont avoid much food at all, I guess Im underweight at 89 pounds, 5'2"
But I think its because I have a fast metabolism 0_o
I'm underweight by a few pounds, I have been most of my life, but only because I have a high metabolism.
Average weight at 180-185 at 6 foot tall.[img]smileys/smilies_14.gif[/img]
Ooh, I'm not as overweight as when I last posted on here! 5'4" and 150. Still 20 to go, but I'm pleased anyway! :-)

I'm underweight at 5'5" and 102 lbs, partly due to emet and partly due
to an ED. I don't eat a lot because of emet (hate to feel full,
because feeling full = n*) but I'm perfectly okay with my weight and
would like to lose those extra 2 lbs thanks to anorexia. So...
it's both for me.
5'4" and 149!!! Slowly, but surely! :-)

I have always been pretty skinny -- but I gained weight after I graduated college. In the past two years I have since dropped the weight and I'm now as skinny as I was in high school. It's definitely from this phobia. I am very picky abotu what I eat, and I make sure not to eat too much in case something happens.
