Today I was looking at facebook and there was a plus size model who is 5'4" and a size 22 which is what I am. It really makes me wonder why I need to lose weight to feel beautiful, shouldn't I feel beautiful no matter what my size, that's the real question. Why do we condemn the beautiful just because they are plus size? I really think it is a shame that the media and society says you have to be a certain size to be beautiful, to be loved and to be healthy. Last time I checked being too thin was just as unhealthy as being too big, but why is it more acceptable, why is it looked upon as an illness while those who are over weight are looked at as big fat pigs who need to stop shoveling food in their mouthes. I rarely hear of people being made fun of for being skinny, but it seems everyday I hear about someone being mistreated or abused verbally for being over weight. I think if we helped those that needed to lose weight rather than break them down the world may be a more healthy place. I can tell you from experience, there is always an underlying reason for the overeating. It is never just about the food. So the next time you want to make fun of or bully someone for being over weight maybe you should think about the reason they over eat
