Too bad that folks don't appreciate the "meat on the bones" look anymore, and find the walking skeleton to be more attractive! Some of the bulimic/anorexic models I have seen on t.v., are absolutely disgusting! I can't imagine anyone intentionally starving themselves to look as they do. And the sad part is, they truly believe that they look good that way!!!

You certainly put that very well. Some of those models turn my stomach when I see the bones sticking out. But of course anorexic / bulimic people are mentally ill and never will see themselves as walking skeltons unless they are lucky enough to realize the need for treatment and stick with it. It makes me sad to see the teens who feel they have to look like that to be popular or liked.
And here I am fighting to put on a few pounds...
