i'm not quite as thin as kate looks in that picture, but i'm considered severely underweight. any kind of illness, even a common cold, is dangerous for me to catch and i'm pretty much without any energy at all for at least a week.

i've been asked by people i don't even know if i was anorexic or bulemic. it kind of sucks when you walk down the street and people just stare, and some even have the audacity to make comments.

i just think it's sad because especially young girls think that being slightly overweight is just terrible, mostly becuase they get picked on and made fun of. but there's an opposite end of that spectrum, because people like me get made fun of just as much. it's sickening that hollywood promotes this as well because being underweight is obviously not healthy and is VERY hazardous...i'm sorry, but i'd much rather be 20 pounds overweight and healthy than the position i'm in now.

hollywood was better when ladies like marilyn and betty grable promoted a healthy, curvy body with some meat on it.


I'm so sorry hun!

Its such a sad disease. My step-sister had it when she was a teenager. As a result she looks very un-developed. She has the body of a 12 year old but is actually 20. Her bones are very brittle, and she says that her teeth, nails, and hair have never gone back to regular. I'm just glad she has recovered. But its a constant struggle for her.
