Size zero; yay or nay?

[-Lo Va Tits-]

some people just dont gain weight i my best friend is a size 00 and it baggs and she eats alot like twice the normal intake of me  

[nippIe goblin]

xp I like my body I'm a little more on the Pillsbury dough boy side *poke my tummy and I'll stab you with a rusty spork* But I'm pretty comfortable. I've been called fat but I've also been called Bimbo. *and attractive but stupid female which is a compliment inside of an insult* I've though about becoming bulimic just to see what the attraction is but I don't exactly care for yellow teeth and vomit breath. I've never had a friend that has/do deal with weight problems such as anorexia and bulimicy. My motto is Stick people belong on paper not on a scale.

I have no problem with keeping a small waistline, however I find the idea that one should turn themselves into a skeleton to be the ideal size horrifying!  

[Angel of the End]

In pants, in American sizes I can wear between a 9-12. I have a hard time loosing weight, and for the past 2 years I've only eaten on average 1400 calories per day. My metobolisim is very very slow, and for a long time last summer I exercised in excess, and it did nothing. Well, other than after about a month of 100+ push ups a day and hours of DDR my body hurting so much for several weeks I couldn't do a single push up, crunch, or lift a small weight because my entire body was so sore. At this point, I've just given up. But a size 0? THAT IS INSANITY. There are starving people who would LOVE to be a size 12-16! It is crazy that people don't even take that into consideration when determining what is "thin" and what is "fat". I mean, does weight even really matter?
I've seen over-weight girls who were BEAUTIFUL, and very kind and self confident. And I've seen plenty of skinny girls who were UGLY and looked over-aged, and were miserable about their appearence.
About a month or two ago, me and my mom saw the skinniest girl I've ever seen in my life out jogging, you could see every bone in her arms, legs, and even her neck. Her hair was frog-thin, and it was so sad/disgusting. I really pity that girl.

You know what I like to do with size 00 women. I'll take them over to my friends out to be implemented on her Cheeseecake Diet. You eat nothing but Cheesecake until you are not so scary thin again.

Anyone else see a strange paradox where large breasts are desired but also a 22 inch waist. How on earth could you support more than a C cup with that waist?!

I'd just like to say that I have a 22-inch waist, 34-inch chest and 34-inch hips.

And I eat pizzas and nachos all the damn time.

I eat when I'm hungry, don't eat when I'm not, and I walk everywhere because I don't own a car.

And that's how I'm skinny. I'm also a C-cup.

Waist size isn't everything. There's a big difference between an hourglass-figured girl with a 22-inch waist, and twiggy with a 22-inch waist.

I WISH I didn't have the hourglass, because I'd love to be a stick. But sadly, I've got curves.

If you've got em, you're not losing them. Different people have different body structures. Ever heard of endomorphs, ectomorphs, and mesomorphs? If you're naturally rotund no matter how much you do to change it, you may just have that natural body structure.

 

[MoonlightxCastsxShadows]

I don't want to be that small. I'm a size 11 and proud of it. I'm not really all that fat. It's just a size not who you are.  

[ChiRubian]

Size zero? Damn straight. I desire nothing but the best, and pity those who can't keep up. I think anorexic/bulimic people are intriguing, and I'd love to draw one someday. Their skeletal structure would be amazing.

 

[Maniacal Hatter]

Having seen that, I think I'm going to puke. brb  

[The_Zombie_CheerLeader]

Yes i am actually trying to lose weight ti be around that size myself. I just can't stand my size right now. But anyway honestly if they want to be that small they can, its their choice.  

[NekoYasha09er]

I have to say getting to that size is quite scary if you do it the ways of anorexia and bulimia or just not eating at all. But there are some people that has been stated before that can't keep on weight and kudos for them but starving your self to be that "perfect" image is just plain harmful to yourself and the people around you. I'm a size 6-7 in american clothes and proud of it. I often fluctuate between the 6 and 7 due to my job at a restaurant as I do a lot of running around as the hostess.

slowly walks out (5'9 - 125lbs -23 inch waist )
but hey im happy its all about personal choice i think that if you want to lose wait it should be for you and no one else  

[ii-See-Stars-x]

honestly im one of those teenagers that would like her stomach to be a little bit firmer. but that's it. there's this girl at my school that's taller then me and she's only 86 pounds. im about 100. i think that's an average weight for a 13 year old, right? she does have a gorgeous body, but i think it's a little unhealthy. and she's saying "WHOA YOU'VE REACHED 100!!! OMFG GIRL HIT THE GYM!!" i hate it when people tell you that you're fat, and she's like partial anorexic, it's not a big problem, but she's got like a super model body... its odd for a 13 year old to have that kind of body.  

[Autumn Caledonia]

That's the problem, supermodel thin has become what people think is "normal" because that's what the media feeds people. People keep seeing super skinny women on television and in movies and since that's all the see they think that it must be normal.

And only 13? Hopefully someone stops her now or she'll be heading for some serious problems.  

[AmsterdamGoth]

I'm European size 36 (american: size 8 ), and I want to stay that way because I don't need to be thinner.
