Now, I have always always looked at the mirror and thought to myself "Huh look at that, I'm so fat, I hate my love handles and my thighs are
HUGE, I wish I was skinnier". However, I'm sure I'm not the only girl who does this, many women probably struggle with weight issues and, it dosen't help that every woman we see in movies and in music videos are all well "skinny" worst of all we get this image of how women
SHOULD look by looking at models. Models in their skinny figure mentally tells us that, thats how girls are seen as "hot". Another thing that grabs our attention Is how guys are also into the skinnys.
But, back tom my first point, All girls want the perfect image. And we work hard for it, but what happens when girls become physically and mentally obsessed with their body image?
This is Isabelle Caro, she is a young woman who unfortunately died last year in Japan due to pneumonia. Isabelle had been suffering from
Anorexia. A picture of her (the last one) was up on a billboard in France as a petition to stop Anorexia. So again I ask how far are we willing to go? To the point where we build up eating disorders? She was quite brave to have done this commercial, she actually thought it was a great idea, it was almost like a way of her expressing how serious and how dangerous this disease is, she had been suffering from anorexia since the age of merely 13. She also said it was a great way of showing her years of work to the world and hopefully, it will be an eye opener for many young females all around the world.
I was quite astonished when I saw this and it touched me deeply, I'd rather appreciate my body then try to change it, of course there will be days where I will just want to cutt my stomach off (not literally) hehe but deep inside value it, it's your body, your temple.
"BEAUTY IS IN THE FAT"
Truthful words.
