I think it's ridiculous that they're banning clothes. Okay, so let's pretend that DOES deter folks with eating disorders from continuing the habit. You're (as in the company[ies]) still putting the naturally thin folks out. Plus other issues.

I don't know if I have a very fast metabolism. I rarely exercise and I don't have the healthiest diet(it seems most unhealthier foods are usually more affordable). I'm 4 feet and 9 inches tall and am 100 lbs. I have bad self esteem so whether or not that's "normal" or "okay", I am not sure. :o

Everyone should be happy with them selfs no matter what, I mean if you think your set for it go ahead and gain or loose a few pounds but please don't go over board.

At least we have a home, food and don't have to worry about bombs, starving ect ... if you think about compared to millions of people around the world we have it good and we should think less of our selves and help others more.

That is very true and well said. Our diversity as the human race makes each and every one of us special no matter how we look, skinny or curvy. As you said, sometimes we get so wrapped up in our own minor lifestyle dilemas that we forget just how lucky we are to be able to create them!

And thank you for the comliments too. :D It's great to see how people of all sizes are in general agreement that we should be happy in ourselves and be thankful that we are all different shapes and sizes and not clones. :)

Ugh. I am certainly no size zero, nor have or will I probably ever be. People are always making fun of me for my weight, and I just wish people would stop.

Anyways.. Every single teen with every single article, magazine, and photo is sending the message SKINNY IS IN, SKINNY IS WHAT YOU SHOULD BE. And pressure just sucks. I think they should be worrying a little more about the people dying to be skinny, but not completely eliminating the clothing size for the people who don't kill themselves for that. The size elimination isn't going to make people eat and gain weight, it's just going to piss people off and give them nothing to wear. What do they want you to do, run around in your birthday suit? Some people can't help if they're skinny, just like some people can't help if they're overweight.
