A good motivational read--

Options
Hungry, written by Crystal Renn. It's the story of how she went from an anorexic model to being the top plus-size model.

It is really helping me gain perspective on positive self image, and that skinny doesn't necessarily equate to happy. There's a difference between a healthy weight and how you think you should look.

I recommend it.

She also raises some very valid points about the fashion industry.

    I started reading a few hours ago and have barely been able to put it down.

    And she is BEAUTIFUL. And healthy. About a size 10.
