Reply from Motivated, Age 19 - 06/27/08 - IP#: 71.192.26.xxx some really thin people have what is called body dysmorphia and they actually do see themselves completely different than they are. it's horrible because no matter how thin they force their bodies to get, they still see the same fat person. i think everybody has this sort of problem to different extents- but it's really important not to fall into it. just remember that you are beautiful, and try to see yourself how you really are- not how you think people see you (which they prob. don't, but your head says they do anyways). if you allow that sort of mentality to control you, even when you get down to your perfect size/weight- you won't be able to be happy.

Reply from Flower Fawn, Age 15 - 06/26/08 - IP#: 96.227.102.xxx Don't let your friends' beauty complexions bring you down. We all look pretty and we're all different, period. There is no use comparing because there is never anyone exactly like you. I mean, take two people's definitions of a "hot" or "fit" person and line them up, and they will look different. Just believe in yourself, hang on, and pull through it! I believe in you!!
