Why models are portrayed as being thin and amazing, and usually seen to be healthy which in reality is so wrong. Many models all over the world suffer from many side effects and illnesses of eating so little, why this isnt focused on more in popular magazines, mainly girls magazines is stupid. People that idolise these models and other such famous singers,actresses e.t.c should be notified of the problems many of these women face from being so thin.

Its wrong, i know i have focused alot on models, but i am just using that as an example of how people see there idols.

Will.
One of my best friends is a model, and yes she is thin and she has been so all of her life (known her for 14 years, we are now 16) she knows there is some eating disorders amongst the models she works with but not much at all!
She has met 2 models that has eatingdisorders or atleast it is said they have among the other ones she works with and their photographer. My friend eats like a horse and still stays at her weight (she works out maybe once a week on a treadmill for 30 min... thats about it)

It's not fair to judge a working model having such a disease just cause she is thin.

.... just have to say that she is going to work in Tokyo in november
Look for a tall, read haired girl named Maria Eilertsen She's wonderful if u get to know her!
