Just now I watched a movie that talked about women in the advertisement. Many models are very thin. The information that i got from the movie is that the beauty is important for woman. In many people opinions, thin girls are so sexy. Therefore more and more girls begin on diet in order to control their weights. Should they keep fit? If they are on diet, maybe they really can lost weight, but also they will become not as health as before. Is it really good for people to keep fit? Some girls already are so thin, for example, a girl is 165 cm and 110 g. They still want to keep fit or even lost weight!!!In my opinion, keeping a health is more important than losing weight....

Shocked

I agree with you. Keeping fit sometimes kills people.
I think those advertisement on mass-media leads people to misunderstand the beuty of people.
We want to say someone is beuatiful when she or he reads and works hard.

being slim. In fact I recently read that being overweight is not as bad for our health as some experts have lead us to believe. It's not being overweight that causes health problems such as heart disease or athritis but rather the inactive lifestyles that overweight people often lead.

So an overweight person can be just as healthy as a thin one if he or she is exercising and staying active.

Having a good shape is really more attractive. But I think it would be unworthy to keep a good shape just to attract others' attention or please someone. As a man, having some people who really love you like your parents, good friends, and lover is enough. I don't think we have to make ourselves thinner for the purpose of pleasing those strangers having no connections with our life. But in this society which regards beauty as one of the most important things, it is really not easy to be yourself. IN fact, there are many careers that overweight wowen can not easily engage in such as flight attendants, fashion models, show business and so on. It's unfair but people just love to enjoy thin girls serving them or performing for them. The worse part is that this trend seems to remain the same in the future!

Seriously, talking is easy but reality is reality. Can someone here show me a guy that would rather choose a fat girl than a slim one??? We all know that living healthy is important, diet is not a good way. Me, myself, I never be on a diet, cause my brain doesn't work without energy. But still, men's mind are narrow.... it's hard for them to see the real characteristics we have inside so...... what now????

I agree with you too. Diet is dangerous, after you lose weight if you eat more, you will get much fatter compared to before. Anyway, I like sports too, so I rather do sports than to be on a diet.... haha.... I can't get too thin anyway..... that's impossible to me.... esp my bone structure is like this... so...... keep fit is good enough haha...........

Keeping fit is a good idea, especially since a lot of people (like me) are lazy and eat unhealthy foods.

I can't be sooo sure, cause nothing is absolutely rite... anyway, my experience is that you eat healthy food, do sports and you will be more than fine. Your teacher is really rite, you should not be on a diet when you are studying... it's not good for you at all. You need energy to think. So anyway... we are girls, we should not be too fat hahah.... but don't be so obsessed with DIET.... Live a happy life, enjoy it.. don't think too much...... If someone likes you... well, of course, cause you are great.... but if someone doesn't because you are not skinny, that's his problem... CHEERS.........AngelJacob.
