anorexic girl

So today in health we watched a movie starring
Tracy Gold (who i looove love love. She was anorexic, so
this was a pretty easy roll for her i would assume). At one
point, they had her in her undies, and her mom walked in
and freaked out. "she's like a skeleton!" All the other
girls in my class agreed with the mom. I didn't. She wasn't
that skinny. My ribs stick out more than hers, as do my hip
bones. Yet i'm fat. She wasn't very skinny. I'm not saying
that she was fat at all, but not disgustingly thin in the
least.
In any event, when i had to change for gym the
next period i was VERY self concious (since the girls who
i'm next to are also in my health class). I hid my stomach
the whole time. I hope they didn't really notice my back or
anything. They didn't say anything *shrug*
We also talked about cutting in health. That
worried me. I was very very very nervous. Especially since
my friend tanya(the one who i went on that trip with, who's
mom talked about my arms a lot and stuff) sits right next
to me. I didn't want her putting two and two together (she
had told me once that one of my scars looked like a star.
I'm surprised she didn't figure it out then). Eeeek
Today was not a very good day.

And i still don't see why everyone thought she was so
skinny.
