Curvy Women = Plus Size

So I have a question, why when a woman has some curves is she automatically considered overweight or plus sized. When did our culture change and make it socially acceptable for a girl to be so thin you can make out every line of her ribs and her spine. I ask this because in today's society I am considered to be overweight and plus sized.

So I am in today's society a plus sized girl, and I can front that I am okay with being considered plus size, but to be truthful deep down it sucks to walk into a store and be confined to a single 5 by 5 space to choose from clothes that I wouldn't even catch my mom in. So about a month ago I made a conscience decision to lose weight, I am actively going to the gym and trying to cut back on what I eat.
Now I think its time to share with everyone what crazy things us plus sized girls are willing to do lose weight, because we all know most of us don't care about getting into shape its about the amount of weight we drop. So aside from going to the gym I am taking what is considered a dietary supplement, all natural, I have checked because I don't want to put any harsh chemicals into my body, why ruin my body in the long run while trying to lose weight now. So I take two pills every morning and don't eat for three hours, does anyone realize how long three hours is...cause I do, the pills are supposed to curve my appetite, but so far I am just watching the clock tick by, hopefully though the longer I take the pill it will work more and more. The one plus side to the pill is I have noticed I eat considerably less then I did prior to starting the pill. But honestly why do us women have to go through all of this just to fight into a stereotypical version of a perfect woman and why do I want to look like her. I think I know why I want to be like her because I want to be looked at by a guy I mean really considered when I walk in some where instead of being that girl next door that gets the once over and set aside.

I think everyday I will share my adventure of losing weight with the world, because I think it will make losing weight easier and make more women realize we are all crazy enough to try anything, and I mean anything to lose those extra pounds...So far I am down about 12 lbs according to my mom, but I say more like 5 heres to losing more every week.

Off to drink some more green tea I here it will help me lose the lbs...I'll let you know if thats true later!

Life?

Ever wonder what you want to do with your life...I suppose most people have, all through our lives we are asked the question what do you want to be when you grow up. Bust what if you are like me and even when you are grown up you still have no idea what it is you want to be, what do you do then? I have now been a college student for 5 years, not because I am a bad student, usually. But because I have no ambition to continue on in school when I have no clue what school will do for me or what I want to do when I leave school. So answer me this what do I do, do I continue to go to school hap hazardly or do I quit and try and make a name for myself without a degree? It seems the older I get the more I have no idea what I want to do and feeling like I should have some idea by now. More to come later.
