Oh I thought it was the other way o-o still very well writen.
XD I just searching for those who feel this way (anorexic or soft, both need to learn they were already perfect no matter what others say, and that its wrong to feel bad for the beuty they already have and are losing with the lies people yell at them) o.o very nice writing.

Are you annorexic?
I was before. I had no idea what went through someone's mind when they were annorexic, though, beause this isn't at all why I did it. I mean, I knew they hated their bodies and that's why, but I haden't thought about it in a way that would really impact me like this. Fantastic job.

I think we've all felt a little like this at some point standing on a scale.
I wish people weren't so cruel so people suffering from this wouldn't have to feel that way.
Amazing job.

I tried to make sure that people could relate to this, although it's mostly from personal experience. I know lots of people who have suffered from similar experiences though.
Thanks so much!

I LOVE THIS. Very simply you have conveyed the idea quite well. The repetition and short sentences work well and the bold type just emphasizes the point. Great work.

Its amazing what the mind does. >: I have had a few friends go through this unfortunately. They got better, but their bodies were never the same afterwards. Its really interesting for me to see what goes through their minds.

After severe cases, the human body never really recovers. It's a horrible thing to go through.

The obsession with being "thin and healthy" is a deadly one. I'm sorry to hear about your relative. If it's possible, I highly recommend that someone bring her to a nutritionist who would be able to help.

Unfortunately that's not going to help, she is seeing a nutritionist. He never argues with her unless she changes her diet to something immediately life threatening.

I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully (soon) she'll realize the danger in what she is doing and check herself in to a hospital that can help her. The worst part about these situations is that you can't help someone who doesn't think they need it.

I think in today's society a lot of people think like that. I know I do some days. And it's sad that from a young age it's nailed into a child's head that skinny is beautiful and fat is not.
They're are people who fuel those thoughts of "omg, you're so fat." Then they're are people who say "love your body," and I say back, "easy for you to say with your small waist."
It's so easy to give into those thoughts with all the skinny celebrities showing their bare asses, and the skinny chicks at school calling you fat. I think they're should be more overweight role models around so no one has to feel like fat is ugly.

This poem came from personal experience, and looking back it's easy for me to see that I was sickly thin, gaunt, and wasting away, but at the time it was impossible. Even "thin" people don't feel thin. I was never overweight to begin with - but the mirror said otherwise. I still struggle with it. I hope the media's obsession with being skinny ends, I really do, but the message is already burned in my brain.

oh my! I so feel like that everytime I have to face the weightscale, or everytime I go to sleep and fear the morning. the worst is when they tell you you're slimmer and it's so not true.
And I so love your work. You wrote it in such a way! PERFECT!
