and since I happened to be in front of my laptop and I google everything anyways, I randomly googled "skinny inspiration" then up pops these 'thinspiration' pictures of all these unhealthy looking women....what does it even mean to be skinny anymore?

    Thinspiration...
    I got some of those. I tend to lean more on the unhealthy dieting myself. I'm trying to be more smarter about things now though. But in my opinion having pics like that can be good. I dont use it as a goal to look like THAT but I do use it as something. Kinda makes me feel better about myself too when I look better =)

    Check out my inspiration board. I have 300 followers, and its a bit inspiring to see how many people repin my pins. Feels like we're all doing this together.

    I like that you use the pictures for a positive purpose...its just that the ones that I saw were kinda morbid
