Hey Sassy you don't look like a bag of bones at all!
I've been following your thread, good luck!

Hay no worries. You didn't have to post that picture, so no apologies needed for anything.

You've got probably a typical slender female body, but you are also what I call a blank canvas. I can see so much in you from that picture. I'm imagining another 3" on Legs, another 2" on Arms, some nice muscle striations / definition.

I'm seeing a fantastic viewpoint on your horizon, and what you should be very proud of, is you're doing something about it. You're starting to give yourself some really good love here, and you will in time find, you CAN boost your confidence, and you CAN find the real you you're looking for, so don't apologise for anything, dont be afraid of yourself or your future, and don't fear failure.

You've got our support, and with your natural mental and emotional resources, you CAN get what you want, and be even more proud of yourself, as you should be now, for getting into this.

WELL DONE, on taking these first great steps, and GOOD LUCK. This site and us are here for you okay, however we can be, and we won't let you fail, or fall down yeah.

I think you look fine from that photo and as Bossman said you only need a slight improvement if that to get your desired look...a simple 2 - 3kg muscle increase would do wonders for how YOU percieve yourself and you could do that in 8 - 12 weeks i'd think

girl's are so harsh on themselves

Thank you Diana, Boss, and Swan. I think that may be the first time someone has said something like that to me. I guess my eyes see what everyone says....the one that hurts the most is Etiopian poster child. I know it shouldnt bother me. sitting here today...but when its said..its like a knife. I wont get into it all....but i have always searched for acceptance, to be good enough...to be worth something more. And when the only thing people have to say is that your too skinny....you have an eating disorder.....you need to eat more.......look theres the ethiopian poster child...that stuff kinda sticks. So thank you......your kind words mean more than you know. (as i wipe the tears) Thank You Thank You Thank You!

Glad you posted. I think you are too hard on yourself. I agree that it won't take that much change to give you a very fit overall look. You CAN do it!!

Don't ever listen to anybody who says that. They are full of crap, and all it proves is they are pretty ugly inside. You could even say I might look like I do, but that's not a bad thing and I have a Heart, what's yours like?

Not to say you should bite back at such people, but you can be strong, and you can rise above it, and we will never say anything like that to you. To me I can see someone with so much human value, who is just looking to show people, that you can be healthy and beautiful, and in time, you will learn to feel like that, and learn to think of yourself, as someone many times better than all the people who slag you off, which is what you are. They are lesser people than you, and don't deserve your pity, though they deserve pity

You are way above them, and in time you ARE going to look better than them, and they could be the ones crying.

Anything we can do, just ask, and no matter how much you ask or need to know, we're here for you, and we'll give you all the support and care you need from us.

The only posters you will ever be on, is when you look fantastic enough to model bikinis, Jeans, Winter Coats, etc etc, and I believe you WILL look that good.

Don't listen to what the negative people say, you look great!!!
