'Size Zero'

[buttercup132]

My sister-in-law wears a double zero and I don't think she looks anorexic. What I don't like is when some smaller girls walk around and say "Oh, I'm so skinny" or whatever. That just makes them look sick to me. (It's the attitude that matters really) You girls are lucky though. I wish I was smaller than I am. (I'm not going to say my size but lets just say it ranges in the teens)

Isn't it usually the other way around? At least those skinny people KNOW they are skinny. They arent going around saying they are fat and need to diet when they are tiny. Those are the type of girls that make us naturally skinnny girls cringe and get made fun of for.

So much has to do with genetics - my cousin could "diet down" to a size zero, (she was usually a 2) where I, who obviously swam to the other side of the gene pool, probably wouldn't fit in a size zero even if I was just a skeleton! I am currently overweight, but am working on that part. But she would get "carded" when she was 24 (legal drinking age was 21) and on dates asked if her date was her father - both of which embarrassed her terribly. I, on the other hand, rarely got carded when I was 18 even, 3 years too young to legally drink!

It was hard as a teenager not to wanna smack my dear friend Wendy who was, like some of you, skinny, and ate junk food to try to gain weight but still didn't! But she was also so fidgety that we swore she fidgeted off every calorie she ever consumed!
