Laments of a skinny girl

This article from the Herworld was really great to sum up how skinny girls feel.

Yes, yes, many many women envy skinny girls for being underweight and "never having to deal with weight issues". However, skinny girls do have to deal with weight issues.

As compared to our shapelier counterparts, we also have thyroid problems, hormonal problems, blood pressure problems and maybe even worse problems such as being at risk of oesteoporosis, diabetes and many other risks associated with obesity.

Thus, maintaining a healthy weight is just better than being underweight/skinny/too thin. You end up looking like a teenage boy.

Thus, the question boils down to, would you rather look like the runway model on the left or the bikini/fitness model on the right?
