A Beautiful Girl

by

I overheard a beautiful girl talking about how she was unhappy with her body today. It was sad to hear it coming from this truly beautiful girl. We all have the perfect body disease. I know one girl who is truly happy with her body and she is rail thin. It’s hard to not have a complex no matter what size you are. My two brothers are always complaining about how it is nearly impossible for them to gain wait. My oldest, if he doesn’t watch it, loses pounds “by accident.” I wish I had that problem. …. but I don’t. Instead, I eat a very healthy diet and panic if I indulge in a sugar free red bull or too much sugar free/low calorie mochas.
So, here I was hearing this beautiful girl being honest about her unhappiness with her figure. I completely related and I felt a little more at ease. We are not alone. Even if you already knew that, you should know just as well the importance of being reminded about that fact. It’s easy to forget.

    Hello, i guess this is as good of a place as any to post and let you know. I went to subscribe to your RSS feed, and when i clicked it i got an error that said “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING” followed by other gibberish that scrolled off the screen. I had to force the page to stop loading because it locked up my browser. Cheers.

About Eating Disorder Talk

The goal of Eating Disorder Talk is to encourage family and friends of people living with disordered eating - as well as sufferers - to learn more about the conditions, where to get help, the risks associated and another vessel of communication. I come with 20 years of experience living with (and sometimes for) anorexia; my job is not to cure, it’s to allow others to speak. This means wanting to help those that want help and to provide a voice to those who don’t.
