When you look through a magazine, you see string bean thin models, and you wish you could look like them. I'm not telling you what to do, I just have one question: WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! Almost 80 - 90 percent of models have an eating disorder. Also, 6 - 10 percent die from that eating disorder.

You probably think that it can't happen to you, but trust me, it can. That's what the models said before, but look at them, they have an eating disorder and they're trying to recover from it. It is so hard to recover, and while it may look easy, it's hard. Especially if you are trying to become anorexic. Trust me, I have tried to become anorexic.

I stopped eating, and I have been putting myself through so much pain that i can't stand it. You will have major headaches that make you throw up, and they won't go away unless you start eating properly again. Even if you have people making fun of you, don't listen to them, be able to eat. If you think that you need to lose weight, do some fun exercises such as dancing classes. Don't hate yourself, just love life the way it is.
