gosh im feeling really depressed these days can anyone help?! it's cos my sis was once normal weight and a bit fleshy but then now she's super skinny.. she's on a crazy diet.. she can starve herself the whole day.. and now it becomes im the fat one, with a round and chubby face.. i've put on quite a bit of weight the past year.. and when she tells people we're sisters they find it hard to believe and stuff.. it's horrible when people keep comparing us and eating with her just sucks.. cos she'll eat like a mouse.. take very little rice or just a few mouthfuls of food and she'll say she's full.. it's just so demoralizing being with her.. im so sick of it.. sometimes i just want to scream at her to stop her dieting and stuff.. i cant stand the sight of myself .. im like so bloated and fat and.. argh whats worse is that im an emotional eater.. i really dunno how to organise my life.. i like sports but i hate exercising alone.. difficult to find the motivation.. and my friends are all working.. ah sorry u all have to read this lengthy post.. but i just wanted to voice out my frustrations.. think i feel better now..

Wow, do I know what you are talking about! I have 3 sisters, and I was always the skinny one.
Now, I'm the BIG sister and it is really demoralizing. I have never had to use any self control before, and at 46 years old, I'm GOING TO LOSE SOME WEIGHT. This year.
You can do it, too! I want to do it in a healthy way. Can you imagine what your sister may be doing to her vital organs if they aren't fed enough? My dad sometimes really limits his intake (he's thin) because my mom eats too much. It's like he's trying to teach her how to cut down or something. Do you think your sister might be trying to correct you in a passive / aggressive way?
Anyhow,
She may be skinnier than you right now, but in time and with the help here you will soon be the slim and HEALTHY one!!
Keep at it! :)

thanks

gee thanks for ur replies.. cool cat, my sis keeps asking me to eat the whole day, and yet she doesnt eat! that's what i really cant stand about her.. it's as if she's happy that im fatter than her and that she gets satisfaction when people comment that we dont look alike.. oh wells, but like u all said, i'll be the healthy AND thin one in future =)
 
Try to put her out of your mind and focus only on you. I know it is hard, as I compare myself to every skinny person out there. All it does for me is make me more determined. I have really started watching what I eat and I exercise daily.
Don't feel depressed, just take charge!
Good luck!
