2005-05-18 [Malnu]: I actually like a gal with a little meat on her bones...I'm not much for the ribs poking out slender type.

2005-05-18 [Daisy le Fleur]: It's scary what women will do to themselves for the sake of being thin...

2005-05-18 [Catlover]: It really isn't that great being thin - I'm naturally the ribs poking out slender type, and I wish I could put some weight on. People always tell me how lucky I am, to be so skinny. My figure's very fashionable, but I'm actually quite seriously underweight. Skin and bones isn't good!

2005-05-18 [Daisy le Fleur]: I had a friend once that was a size 2, it was not attractive when she had on her swimsuit b/c the bottoms would just hang off her hips. But she swore that she didn't starve herself. I know that some people just dont put weight on very well due to natural metabolism and things of that nature. What is bad is the people who look that way on purpose. They call themselves "Pro-Anorexics" or professional ana's

2005-06-01 [Alexa22]: I think that you should be happy with who you are to begin with...you really need to eat

2005-06-01 [Daisy le Fleur]: I am happy with who I am, and I do eat! *If you were referring to me* Or, if you were just commenting on people in general, I agree..but unfortunately there are many girls who are misled and think that beauty is being deathly skinny.

2005-06-04 [Oh! Its a Riot xx]: hmm . ima join . cuz ive had issues myself with eating disorders . also my friend made a wiki about them to . eating disorders

2005-06-04 [Daisy le Fleur]: Great! I'll link it here in ours.

2005-06-04 [IzzyKSK]: Mostley, people who have an ED are not so much about being skinny, but more about having the controle over something in their lives... The skinny part comes later, or not at all..

2005-06-04 [Daisy le Fleur]: True...With young girls it starts out as a skinny issue though...then it becomes the control issue...you see that alot with Bolemia.

2005-06-04 [IzzyKSK]: most of the time, it's to see if the are "strong" enough... and if they can handle it

2005-06-04 [Daisy le Fleur]: I tell you in high school, I remember looking at other girls and being worried that I wasn't thin enough in my thighs or my legs...or butt...or that the reason a guy preferred one girl over me was b/c of my weight..And I look back at pictures of myself and think "What was I thinking? I was cute!!" It was about being skinny, for me anyway.

2005-06-04 [Daisy le Fleur]: It got so bad that I would spend every night doing 120 sit ups and crunches until I felt like my stomach was thin or "cut" enough...(By the way...I did have some kickin abs when it was all said and done! I miss them lol)
