I'll have a large fry with a side of cookies.

Boys and Girls: Have you ever heard one of your girlfriends say how many LBS she needs to lose and then she bakes a batch of cookies? Better yet have you ever eaten so much that you give yourself a tummy ache, cry on your pillow and vow to never do that again? Are you this girl? Is this your girlfriend?

If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, I propose the following advice: stop being crazy. Seriously ladies, nine times out of ten you are saying all this stuff and you're a size two. And more importantly your boyfriends do NOT want to hear it, telling your bff that you are fatty mc fat fat gets you nowhere fast. So here's to you skinny ladies - just stop. Stop thinking that you look like crap and realize that you are probably very attractive and chalk this episode up to PMS or some other super hormonal change in your life. I'll admit I do it too... interestingly enough I don't think it's for attention. I think making such a declarative statement forces you to take action and lose your 5 little pounds. But let's face it, it's still crazy and not recommended. Enjoy it while it lasts if you are in your twenties, your metabolism has not slowed to the pace of molasses so you are probably ok to eat that cookie dough in your fridge.

Furthermore, think about all the people who LOVE your curves, or rolls (jk) or whatever pleasantly plump figure enhancing aspect you have. And trust me, men do NOT like twigs for girlfriends. Think about it. Boys don't like Barbies at a young age why? Because they have no butt, stick legs and too skinny. And what do girls do? They love them, cherish them and hope one day to look just like them. This same dynamic translates into real life and an older version of these girls and boys. But, just remind yourself about those Barbies and where this left them - with NO MANS. All that plastic unrealistic skinniness gets you is packaged by yourself with only clothes that fit you.

So stop picking yourself apart, you are beautiful and lack of confidence never gets anyone anywhere. But you know what does...? The treadmill, so hop on, shut up and burn some kcals without complaining. Much love to my oh so crazy readers :)
