Dear Diary,


Everytime i see a movie or show, or just any skinny girl who passes by me, i just go wondering how happy i would be if i were to have the beautiful obvious curves like they do. flat stomack that wont block the view of your toes, and lovely curves that etch out the hip bone... how i wish to have such a pretty body, to love. but i dont
instead i dont like my body. I try to sometimes, but i just cant. There is this image in my mind that i try to reach, skinny, thin, and happy, but the reality of it is that im not happy.
Well anyways, i try to reach that image, i try to stop eating things, but then i end up binging again later, ugh i hate that.
but i will make a promise right now, i will not eat for a week, just one and then im sure i will reach the spirituallity of fasting and make wiser choices of what i eat... hmm, wish me luck!

Girl, don't worry that does not matter, what really matter is the inside because the appearnce goes away and your inner self stays with you. I know that from personal experince I am a chuncky girl, but just because I am fat doe not mean I am ugly or that you are ugly, who care what people say what matters is what you

ive been where you are. ive reached that skinny. guess what i had to learn the hard way? i still wasnt happy. i was just unhealthy and unhappy. it sounds pathetic but i have to tell myself "you are beautiful" and its working, try it. im healthy again and happy for the first time.. and i wish you the same happiness

Hi Melody. I thought I'd just let you know that I like you just the way you are. You are beautiful. Please don't change, and don't stop eating.

dont starve yourself- instead, eat healthier, run, exercize-I used to feel fat, then i started eating fruits and veggies, running, and it wss very hard at first, but now i feel great about my body, even if i am not the skinniest girl in my school, im happy with the person i am now.

ok, not eating for a week is on offence but a stupid idea, because when u dont as soon as u start eating again ur body will put EVERYTHING you eat into fat storage so just eat healthy and excersize

Just make sure you do it the right way, Melody. Don't deny yourself food...it'll just make the craving twice as bad when your body gives in. Just make smart choices with your food and walk around the block more often. A little goes a long way. Trust me!

I've been where you are...in fact, I still get that way from time to time. There came a point when I decided enough was enough. I wasn't going to look at those girls and hate my own body. I've been working hard since then to mould myself into something I'm not afraid to look at in the mirror.
