Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder but it doesn't count when it comes to your health. I do not like it when men like me or any of my friends due to our weight, breast size, nor ass size. We are human beings, have brains, and individual personalities and morals and that is what people should judge anyone on if at all. My doctor asked me what my weight goal was and I said 110. He about had a heart attack. He said ideally I should weigh 130 pounds and no less than 125. I am 5'2 1/2 and have mixed medium and small bone structure. That is something to think about. Also haters and negative people need to put more evergy into improving their own personalities and morals and maybe self-esteem as well.

Everyone who has left their opinion on these pictures has a valid point.... because it is their opinion. However, who are we to sit back, look at pictures of 3 fellow human beings and judge them? We don't know their backgrounds, their life stories, their real struggles and triumphs... we know what is fed to us thru a tube by the bitch that has really raised us all: The Almighty Media. Each picture, headline, news story and internet exclusive is rapidly forming our opinions and views on complete strangers whom we seem to feel we know and can hate, love, critize and praise. Its very sad and is trickling down into the younger generations who are the keys to this countrys future. Self image problems don't just affect the sufferer, its a life style. We need to quit being so critical about ourselves and everyone around us. Stop attacking people for the way they look... skinny, fat, athletic, on the soft side, ugly, beautiful, homely.... See the person, not what they look like. What have we become as a society? Everyone who has left their opinion on these pictures has a valid point…. because it is their opinion.

Lindsey and Nicole are just two girls overwhelmed with fame and stress, which resulted in an eating disorder. Yes, they are too skinny but they have a disease which they cannot control.

Maybe if people weren't so critical and kept there catty comments to there selves people wouldn't be suffering with anorexia or bulimia would they? everyone would be happy with who they are, but no theres always someone telling them what they should and shouldn't look like. Everyones so flipping obsessed with their weight! why can't people just accept them as they are? Fair enough Lindsey and Nicole do look seriously ill but if it wasn't for people like you/media they wouldn't be like that in the first place would they? you all sit there complaining about how there stick thin yet you don’t stop to think why? …hmm maybe its because people are always comparing them to someone else. who’s thinner than them or fatter than them.

Nicole isn't anorexic shes bulimic whitch means her stomach cnt handle to much food.

She looks healthy and happy. While the other two look like bobbleheads. They have no curves, which is what a woman needs to have. I will never ever want to look like Lindsay and Nicole. It is disgusting. How can anyone find that attractive. It makes me want to throw up. I can't believe people Lindsay and Nicole as role models.
