Jockey's who race horses are undernourished as well, but for other reasons. This is one of those times where such self abuse isn't due to trying to look more desirable I think--but trying to 'get the job'. Or maybe sometimes it's both? A high metabolism, busy schedule and being naturally thinner. I didn't have a big appetite so ate very little and because my life was hectic I would skip meals and so my weight dropped from 55kg (120 pounds) to 42kgs (92 pounds). Some of the girls I worked with in the past were on drugs (mostly cocaine and speed), U always know which ones are and aren't the signs are always there on their skin, eyes, speech etc and they tend to do it moreso out of competing against one another, habit and of course landing that 'job' through their agent. I prefer my shape now, I have a lot more muscle, slender curves and I have changed my diet recently because I'm working on losing 7kg (15 pounds). You're fine as hell. Just sayin' | |

I know that when I first started working as an application engineer, I felt completely inadequate compared to the 'smarter guys', and worked 15-16 hour days to obtain as much knowledge as I could. I already 'had the job', but felt insecure and wanted to be like the 'other guys.' Was your position like that or was it all about the business? I honestly don't think the modeling world will ever change. It seems to go through phases where they emphasize health, but the still photoshop 15 pounds off ever girl on the magazines. Hell, they made fucking Faith Hill skinnier! I was a basketcase at that point so it was a mix of everything. And I don't actually remember a whole lot about that whole time period - starving yourself totally fucks up your mind as well. What percentage of those girl models are truly that thin naturally? I've known some girls who were skinny no matter what they ate, but I would imagine the perfect match of thin vs pretty face kind of thins out the herd, and most of the girls probably were not nearly as thin naturally? | |

Just sayin' Thanks mate ur sweetas. 7kg is not drastic, just getting back to a weight I'm used to and comfortable with. I would never allow myself to be skin and bones again. | |
