Operation Starvation?

For some reason our society has gone way too far.I don't know what happened but it appears that the smaller your dress size is, the more accepting everyone would be around you. People would be jealous, blah, blah, blah.
Okay.
But is skinny = healthy?
No. Not at all.
Someone could be in a bigger dress size but healthier than some random starving soul.
I have nothing against any shape, form or size AS LONG AS YOU'RE HEALTHY.
Here's why you SHOULDN'T starve yourself
- Your body would go in starvation mode. All that weight you wanna lose? Your body's going to try to cling to that desperately. Come on, it's our body's defense system. It would try to keep you going and going and going until such time you pop another meal in.
- Deprivation would wreak havoc on your body. You wouldn't be getting enough vitamins and minerals and believe me, it'll affect everything -- hair, skin, health in general! Need proof? I read in a magazine that this chick only ate sky flakes (crackers) for a year. What happened? Wicked hair fall, nails turning blue was it? I forget. But all sorts of wrong happened. She got scared and consulted a doctor (about freaking time). Emmaleigh and I actually talked about starvation briefly before and she said she's break out when she'd starve herself. So yeah. This is a no no no no no no no!
- Deprivation would wreak havoc on your mood. I don't think I have to explain this a lot. I mean, this would make you cranky and all! Besides, the havoc on your body thing? You can be deprived of necessary stuff to generate happy elements like endorphins and whatnot.
- Ultimately, if you starve yourself, you die.
So there's that. Just a short blog. It's never good to starve yourself. A good idea? Consult your doctor when planning to go on a diet or anything. Know what and what isn't healthy. Try looking at the BMI chart. Whatever you choose, make sure you're not endangering yourself. Safety first, always.
Guess that's it. Sorry if this is sort of just all over the place. Been a hectic week and I want to really try to do my posts on time. Now it's the weekend, I can REST!
PS
If you're out there and we ever have a contest on this blog sometime soon (which we most prolly will) what would you guys want as prizes? What kinds of contests would you think would be fun? Can't wait to hear from you!
'Til the next stop,
Mara
