My teacher’s draft!

What is going on in the world today? Left and right we have girls who are obsessed about how they look and what is considered to be the right look. I find it a little disturbing, I mean wouldn’t you when you see girls that are skin and bones. That’s scary. With April here, I realized that I have 2 months to get into shape which in my words means i need to tone up but not lose weight. I’m happy with my weight and I would never think of losing weight so heavenly like some girls do. I’m gonna head out to the gym in the next two months and eat right…eating every meal but just cutting down on junk food.

Now I think of my idea on getting into shape and I think of what we hear and see on the news. The media has girls thinking that being a size 0 is what’s liked but it is sick. Girls starve themselves all day and there are even the ones that starve themselves all day and then also go to the gym. I mean that is a catastrophe because with no food and energy and then exercising just makes a person sick. I know a girl that used to be maybe 20 pounds overweight and she got into a zone of dieting but a very strict diet. It’s almost like she became anorexic. And then she would go to the gym everyday and stay for hours. How skinny can she get? It is in her head that she needs to lose more and more weight when there is not need for her to. She sees stars and she wants to be like them. It is a sickness in her mind. Girls should learn to be happy with their bodies and images. There is a way to lose weight and maintain it but in a healthy way such as eating right and not skipping meals because all it does is make the weight problem worst and exercise regularly but not in an obsessive way. We have to set a new trend where everyone can be the weight they want and not how everyone else thinks we should be.
