The celebrities you see who are stick thin most likely have Anorexia. Now let me tell you Anorexia is NOT perfect. Anorexia doesn't allow you to have a life, it doesn't allow for friends and fun and it doesn't allow you to concentrate on anything other than food. You pretty much have to say goodbye to your friends, social life and grades and any hope of a good career.
Anorexia doesn't make you a perfect person. You are only as perfect as you feel, and can only be perfect in your own eyes. And I can tell you know when you are anorexic, you never feel perfect. Anorexia is not beautiful, its a horrible nasty, often FATAL illness. No one wins with anorexia anyway, you either gain weight...or die. What a waste of a life trying to lose weight, only to die and not be recognised as stick thin, or gain weight...and still not be recognised as stick thin!
