New Member, 18 year old Actress looking for MFP friends! :)

Options
Hello everyone! So, I JUST joined a few minutes ago. But, I'm already discovering that i'm going to love this site! I decided to post this so I don't feel completely alone on the site! I'm 18 and I'm an equity actress/singer/dancer. I'm obsessed with performing (my website is www.mikaelafleming.com) and my goal is to get back into shape and tone my body up with cardio and a better diet! In this career, whether it's film or theatre, you are constantly judged by your appearance. I'm very petite (i'm 5'1, size 3 feet, and baby hands) so i'd like to have a body that better fits that frame. I'm not looking to getting stick thin, but I just need to tone myself up. It's hard to compete with 5'9, extremely skinny, models in auditions. :P So, I'm trying my best to better myself and get more energy so I can work better in rehearsals.

So, I'd love to make some new friends! Just send me a request and we will start with awesome journey together!

    I completely know where you are coming from; I am a professional singer as well, and not being a size 0 makes the business that much more difficult. I wish you lots of success though! :)

    Hey :) I'm hoping to get into acting when i'm older, hence the reason i'm getting into shape now. I think being happy with your own body will also give you the confidence boost that will help you in auditions and on stage (i'm assuming you work in theatre, or are you also tv/film?)
