Me Against Skinny

I have a friend who is obsessed on losing weight. I kept saying that she looked fine, that she was not fat. But no, she insisted that she is fast gaining weight. “Help, I can’t fit into all of my jeans,” she told me. “Hmm, she is such an exaggerator,” I thought to myself.

She then forwarded me her latest picture to prove her point. Hehe, she was right, she gained weight! It’s funny because it was only two weeks since I last saw her and now her face is fuller than I remembered. So yes she did put on some weight. However she still doesn’t look fat to me. In fact, she is looking better than ever. Way better than when she was skinny as a stick. Unless fat to her meant something else, I just can’t understand it.

That’s what I don’t get, why do people so obsessed on being skinny. Actually I don’t care much about it until I watched Hancock, because Charlize Theron was really thin! She lost a large part of her beauty because of that. I was truly disappointed! People fussed over the fact that Angelina Jolie being skinny, that she’s not looking as good anymore but what about Charlize Theron? Her beauty is classic, and her body was perfect. She wasn’t fat, she was curvy, at all the right places. And now all that are gone. Losing her curves is a tragedy!

It is the same with Hillary Duff. I really like her in Lizzie McGuire. She was cute and the reason being she was a little bit chubby. But now she has joined the skinny club and looking anorexic. Erghh, why?! (**)

I just don’t get it!
