50% of girls from age 8-14 are dieting.
it doesn't sound much but think about it. that's one in every 2 girls.

personally, i think it's disgusting that such young girls who's bodies are still developing are worrying about weight loss.
or health for that matter, young kids used to be healthy back in the day, before obesity was welcomed in.

anyway, that's an apple in my hand. and i'd just like to mention that this seems like quite the contrast to Teen Pregnancy [link] =p

Note: there's a grey patch that looks like my chest, but that's just the colour of that top, it's hard to tell with b/w images (my mum saw it and was like uh..so i thought i'd mention it)

Note 2: i dont expect it but in case, this image is NOT in any way suggestive or provocative. the small top was worn because i'm trying to show that many diet regardless of whether they actually need to or not and/or the effects they have on the body.

Part One - Rape [link]
Part Two - Teen Pregnancy [link]
Part Three - Suicide [link]
Part Four - Domestic Violence [link]
Part Six - Self Harm [link]
Part Seven - Parenting [link]
Part Eight - Child Molestation [link]
Part Nine - Child Molestation [link]
Part Ten - Poverty [link]
Part Eleven - Honour Killings [link]
Part Twelve - Media [link]
Part Thirteen - Smoking [link]
Part Fourteen - Smoking [link]
Part Fifteen - Diabetes [link]
Part Sixteen - Homicide [link]
Part Seventeen - Water [link]
Part Eighteen - OCD [link]
Part Nineteen - Abortion [link]


I thought this pic was going to be super unpopular for some reason. seems people like it, second best in the series after Rape [link]


I'D ALSO LIKE TO INCLUDE
THIS IS NOT THE LAST IMAGE OF THE SERIES

:( sad..
I tried to stop eating and only take pills once..
My grandma let me, because she thinks I'm fat..
It hurt my stomach so much though.. After Id take the pills I'd get horrible stomach pains, and the only way to make them go away was to sleep..
I quit trying to do that, because I just gave up.. But now I self harm.. I feel so empty and ugly.. Like no one cares about me or loves me. I feel worthless to everyone..

I do because everyone made me. Now everyone wants me to stop. too late. I'm sorry I can't be perfect.
