My cousin said i look fat and asked me whether i am pregnant or not :'( that's why i don't trust this stupid bmi chart, i'm over weight not lower end of healthy.I'm so upset and i don't deserve to post here.

Aww hun, I know how that feels
I got told I looked pregnant once when I was a completely healthy weight
I know the normal response is to panic & try to lose weight but you don't need to prove yourself to anyone
Losing weight won't make you happier, you do deserve support
Please try not to listen to your cousin, they are wrong!
You are a healthy weight!!
Once a few years ago, I was underweight and barely eating. insensitively, a family member said "wow you're piling it on there". It could have been sarcasm or just insensitivity but it threw me into complete turmoil. Looking back, i see it shouldn't have. So... the way that comment made you feel, it isn't a logical thing (if that makessense). Must have really hurt and I can see it's messed with your self-worth but don't panic. Stupid offhand comments do not mean you are overweight and *definitely* do not mean you don't deserve to be on here. (Btw I have just reached "lower end of healthy" myself and understand how panicky that can make you feel... and how easy it is to start thinking you don't deserve or need this support)
I got asked if I was pregnant last week and am a healthy weight so can understand where you are coming from. Please try and remember that people are ignorant and say stupid things, that does not make them true. Please don't let this ruin all your hard work. <3
Awww that would have really messsed with your head, i got called fat the other day by a kid in the street and im at the lower end of normal too. The thing is alot of the time these kids etc do it for a reaction, they know they will get one because they know its offensive to say to someone, kids dont even look at things like that they are too stuck in their own world, im pretty sure whatever reason he said it for it wasnt cause you were fat! I didnt let the kid who said it get to me the other day, try not to either!
You dont need to destroy yourself anymore, we all know you were good at that,
now retire from all that hard work you do
of bringing pain to those sweet eyes and heart
Severe malnutrition can cause a 'pot belly' affect... so this could be a possible reason for these comments? (although I do not know because I obviously have not seen any of you, and I have never actually seen this happen to anyone I know in England)

Some Things There Are No Words For, Only Shoulders To Lean On. Hands To Hold On To. And Hugs To Comfort You, As Best They Can.
Buttons - you make me proud.
MeaCulpa - It will never be your fault.
Everyone - Whatever you need to hear.
The person whom asked me this is clinically obese, i'm not calling her names, she is truly very overweight so i don't know why she would say stuff like this to me :( and it actually messed up my head so much and not only i felt so huge, i bought scales and started restricting and got pregnancy test, yes it was negative.I'm still feel very vulnerable, thank you alll alot <3 sending love and hugs.

I feel like everyone, especially women and girls, has a misconstrued idea of what is "fat" these days. Someone could be a little bit over the average weight for their age and people just call them fat. I've actually even noticed a lot of girls who are clinically overweight that make fun of other people's weight and honestly (not to sound cliche but..) it's to make themselves feel better. Don't worry about what other people say just love yourself, that is what getting better is all about. Whether we are at the "right" weight or a even a little bit over the desired weight, we should accept ourselves for who we are.
