so how is everyone doing in general?


i think i gained a pound or two over thanksgiving, which is a huge feat for me considering my metabolism lol--but i did have three seperate thanksgiving celebrations (not on the same day, of course).


unfortunately, that pound or two will probably be gone in a few days unless i keep eating like i have been, lol. i guess it's odd to hear about people trying to gain weight, because most have the opposite problem. it's just as hard for me to gain weight as it is for most to lose weight... :S

i just don't like being so so SO bony.

Heya Princess. heart I'm okay, I had two Thanksgivings and I ate a total of one scoop of mashed potatoes, two scoops of stuffing, a small portion of turkey and a slice of pumpkin pie. Being sick and cranky on Thanksgiving is no good. gonk

How are you?

i know a woman like that
she had troubles with her baby because of it :c
it sounds just awful

there's two ends to the spectrum,
people just don't seem to understand unfortunately

Exactly, that's why I made sure to post in the rules that this isn't the place to talk about who is healthy and who isn't and who deserves these notes and who doesn't. It's soooooo easy to believe the people we see are healthy/unhealthy when they might not be and it's just not our business either way.

This thread didn't make me feel any better.
I still have the same amount of s**t-esteem I've always had.
I'd have to be paid to go out in public without pounding on make-up.

I'm really sorry to hear about how you feel about yourself. sad We don't expect this thread to be a magical cure-all, especially the first few posts alone. But if you'd like you can stick around and work on your self-esteem as we work on ours too. It's just an invitation though, we won't harass you into staying. heart

aw, as in, she's pregnant right now?


i've been told by, uh, three doctors, i think, that my weight was fine AS LONG AS i wasn't planning on having a child. D: i'm too thin to really support a baby, and i'm so small-boned that i would have hugggge problems with birth anyway...


i mean, i don't want kids now, or any time soon, but i might someday. it's just a little concerning that i might not be able to support a child because of my weight. D: unless i find a way to gain weight, a child couldn't really survive in such a thin body. most women have no issue with gaining weight to support a baby while pregnant (not that you should gain like, 100+ pounds, but you know what i mean), but with my metabolism, it wouldn't be very easy. soooo. i donno, it's just something i don't like to think about.




and yeah, problems do exist on both ways. i'm glad this thread has been rather friendly to me--a lot of these types of threads aren't, rofl.

In my opinion, make-up is great so long as you're using it to cover up scars, blemishes, etc. However, to try and enhance ones original beauty is just disappointing. I know I'd love to see the face of the girl I am with in all her glory.

see, i have to disagree with that. i see nothing wrong with using makeup to enhance your beauty AS LONG AS you are okay with yourself without makeup.

sure, i use makeup everyday. now, it's not much--just eyeliner, blush, and mascara. would i go out without it? sure, if i had to. but i choose not to, just because i like how it looks. it emphasizes my eyes and makes my super pale face look a little less, you know, dead.

i fail to see what is wrong with that. why would you discourage a girl from making herself look even better?

i would think a truly loving boyfriend wouldn't care either way. my boyfriend doesn't mind if i have makeup on or if i do not. he loves me either way, finds me beautiful either way, and thinks it's completely up to me whether i go without or whether i do full black eyeshadow with fake eyelashes

Interesting thread/mission concept.
I don't have the money for sticky notes however. Haha.
Plus my girlfriend constantly tells me "You're beautiful" which has worked wonders over the course of our relationship for my self esteem and image issues.

I was anorexic to high hell when she first met me, and she helped me stop that basically. So now I'm trying to gain at least ten pounds so I'm not so unhealthy. Its a long work in progress though, because no matter what I eat or do, I hardly gain anything at all.

Congrats on the thread though, which is what I came here to say.
