This message is for Kelly. Thanks for your reply. That was really sweet of you. You're right. I didn't worry until my "friend" guessed my weight. Last night I was really tired & I cried a lot about how I look. My mom is one of my best friends, and she and my stepdad talked to me for about an hour. They made me re-realize a lot of what you had said. Nobody really cares how you look because they are worried about themselves. And humans were not created to look like half-starved skin-and-bones creatures. We were actually meant to have a little bit of a tummy (look at normal-sized little kids). Everyone was made dfferently, and we all have our own levels of muscles and fat. We are supposed to have some fat. It's what keeps us warm and what cushions our insides (like our butts--lol). Anyway, thanks for replying-- I printed it out :) I'd like to talk to you, do you have an e-mail address? Mine is AmandaB587@aol.com Talk to you later!
