Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Weight: Please see your doc to rule out medical conditions for low weight. If all ok you can work w/a nutritionist to stay healthy. Above all, love yourself the way you are. If weight is an issue for others it's there issue. Please don't measure your self-worth by it. Peace and good health.
