"You have to eat something"
"You're losing weight every day:
"Please, you're harming yourself"
"JUST EAT"
These are the words I hear constantly, day in day out. Why can't everyone see that this is what I need to do to? I need to be able to have a good looking body so I'll be able to do anything I want in life. Like have someone to love me, become a model, dancer, actress. I could land any job if I had the body of my dreams! But everyone, my parents especially, just don't seem to understand this.

Okay so today I weighed myself, 55 kilos. That's not good enough! How am I supposed to get a guy to fall in love with me if I'm only 55 kilos? This stupid diet isn't working...... so I'm just going to have to skip some meals just until I'm under 50......
* * * *
I can't breathe..... I feel so sick I need to throw up.... but I can't. My body won't let me..... my head is spinning so fast I can barely stand on two feet....
"MISS! STEPHANIE FAINTED!"

..... These tubes and machines are helping me to breathe a bit better now. I've put on 3 kilos and now weigh 58 kilos. But I'm still weak.....what have I done to myself, I could have died.
* * * *
Now here I am. Healthy, alive and eating as much as I should be. I can see now that no matter what my body shape is or how much I weigh, I'll still be able to find a guy who loves me for me. I don't need to put my life in jeopardy for that.
