yeh people rely on these things way too heavily sometimes and it's funny you brought this up because in media today we started a unit called "teen girl magazines and how they portray teenage girls to their audience" or along those lines. I gave up reading them they annoyed me with their "ideals" too much. It annoys me when some of my friends used to say i never ate just because i looked skinny. I began to eat way more after that until they stopped saying it. But there's just so much pressure

I used to get that a lot, but I never ate more because of it. Like I could, heh I was reading heat the other day and it had this article on Kate Lawler and her weight, so it angered me a bit.

yeh they *really* need to get their stories straight sometimes. I mean i *know* that some of the people who write those things or are involved taking the pictures and everything, haven't got the "perfect" figure so they're very hypocritical

Yes! Another thing that annoys me is teenage girls who are all like 'IM BLOND AND I LUV LADZ' you know the type. Bit off topic but I just had to mention it.

Well, y'no, we are all shallow to a certain extent. But those particular shallow cows just go way OTT.

True Jaime, we all post this, yet all of us at one point will say "I'm too fat" or "I'm too thin" etc. I do it. I often say I'm too curvy, too short, too ugly, etc, etc. I get really angry with myself sometimes. However, at other times I look at all these "flaws" and I think to myself "hey, that's what makes me unique". I have curves, but then again I'm a WOMAN so why shouldn't I, right?

Yep. I have angry days when Im like 'Damn, Im so ugly' then other days when Im like, 'Meh, suppose it could be worse'. I think were all just going to have to try and accept that this is the way we are, and we cant do nothin' about it. I do kind of hate beautiful people though

I have a very poor body image for the reasons I mentioned above. I just live with it really.

I'm not allowed to diet. I'm actually a perfectly respectable 8 and a half stone. But for me thats not good enough. So no crash dieting. I can exercise but sensibly. Only a bit a day or things just get messed up.

Im around 6 stone now, but up until last year when I had my very first growth spurt I was something daft like 4 stone, heh. I wish I weighed a bit more.
