Why Skinny?

Out of all body types, sizes, and shapes, why does the ideal female body have to be stick thin?

But is it really the ideal? Who decides that?

Why are all runway models 6 ft 2 and a size 0 or 2?

Do the clothes really look that much better on a size 2 body than a size 6 or 8  body?

And why are celebrities always flaunting their pin legs and tiny waists?

They talk about their latest diet consisting of just salad & mineral water while also telling us they work out 3 hours a day.

For some reason thin seems to = happiness....?

Thin people are thought to be perfect & have their life under control.

But is this true?

The opposite is usually true. Many girls who are skinny due to an eating disorder struggle with their lives. Their eating disorder is usually their "escape" or their one thing that they can control!

Ok, there are naturally thin people out there and they are healthy, because that is just the way their body is. They have fast metabolisms and don't gain much weight. They too are beautiful just like any other girl.

Each girl....and boys included, has a unique body & that makes everyone unique!

So we need to stand together to let every girl & women out there know that they are beautiful as long as they  eat healthy, and sweets in moderation, and do some form of exercise they enjoy! And even if you are not at a healthy weight, that does not mean you are ugly!!

A curvy women or underweight women can work on becoming healthier. It takes time!!

So please do not criticize other women, and don't compare yourself to others.

We love YOU the way YOU are!

Your personality is so much more important :)
