Being Overweight

This is along the lines of Sara's journal entry today about "fat girl syndrome"...

Even though there seems to be a wave of "fat acceptance" out there... I'm not about to use that as an excuse to pig out constantly and let myself get fatter.

I think people should try to stay in shape.. and everyone has their best "size"... not every woman needs to be a size 1. There is a point when a woman can look TOO thin... so I think people should just find what size makes them the most confident and try to maintain it.

It's kind of sad how your outside appearance means something to most people, but since that is the damn truth... you might as well try to make the most of it for yourself. It sucks to think that when a girl is described only as having a great personality, being smart, funny etc... it probably means she's not good looking if they don't mention that part. But hell, I think people should work on both parts! Good looking people should work on their personalities... and homlier looking people should try to make themselves look their best! I feel that some good looking people make take their looks for granted since they do "get more" out of life from other people just because they give a better impression -- thus they may slightly lack in personality...

I don't really feel like typing another long entry.. so I'm gonna stop here... I'm sure you've heard it all before.
