Array ( [sid] => 14751 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => ana [time] => 2003-03-22 19:05:00 [hometext] => you like food? well i dont [bodytext] => Here I stand,
A foreigner to this land.
I look down at my hands,
They are rougher than the sand.
Past my hands is my tummy,
I must quit eating things that are yummy.
Under my tummy I see my legs,
Yep, there are those huge thunder thighs.
My arms are chubby,
And they tend to bug me.
Why must I be so f***** ugly...

I can't stand to eat anymore,
Each bite I take will add more gore.
I jiggle and bounce with every step,
It's so disgusting that I just wept.
Everyone tries to say,
That I'm skinny as can be.
But these are lies; for I do not see,
This skinny side they find in me.
I'm fat, I'm gross, why don't they get it?
This is why I can not stand it,
Good bye food, hello ana.
It's about time you found me again
I have been waiting for you my friend

To tease_whizz ... No I didn't misunderstand this poem ... I realised her pain, but I believe the last two lines implied that she was finally finding some courage to turn things around and I was offering my encouragement to her, that's all. I didn't mean any offense, and thought this was a great poem. Perhaps I interpreted her final words in a different way to you. I'm sorry... Jan

Try to remember that the person that counts is the person within the body. It shouldn't matter if you are a size 8 or a size 30!

I hope you can find peace and contentment with your body but don't forget that you are already beautiful

ana is ur friend
she's always been mine
she's the bestest friend of all
though she might hurt u sometimes
food is satan
food is satan
ana i perfect
ana is good
ana is right
and dont let any one tell u otherwise
because the people who tell u
that she is wrong
just dint understand
becuase ana isnt their friend
they're too weak for her
