Hi everyone. I am 16F and this year i’ve encountered mental issues that have resulted in both weight loss and weight gain!
I initially lost at most maybe 15 pounds yet my legs were still pretty thick. i ended up losing my period (i still don’t have it back for some reason even though I have gained a bit back D:)
now I am at 125 at 5’3 so i’m a healthy weight :) yet my legs are so huge. I don’t know if it’s lipedema since my family is saying that it’s genetic. but at what point does it become genetic? I don’t want it to become an excuse for me to not pay attention to what i eat and stuff
additionally, my issues stemmed from hanging out with my thinner friends. i have always been one to compare- my two friends are very thin without a large appetite, they both have a totally normal relationship with food but they just don’t eat a lot. I am wondering why they can function just fine, yet i lost my period eating similar to them. are our bodies really that different ?
I plan to see a nutritionist and psychologist soon. i just would really appreciate some answers since it’s been taking quite a toll on me. hope u all have a great day / night
