Here's why:  ~ an excerpt from Boot Camp for the Broken-Hearted: How to Survive (and Be Happy) in the Jungle of Love

"Picture in your mind that there is a little girl who lives in your shirt pocket.  Take her out and look at her standing in the palm of your hand.  Notice how sad she looks.  She’s been mistreated most of her life.  She’s been belittled, hurt, abused; she’s gotten dirty and wet, felt cold, hungry and lonely.  Not only have other people made her feel this way, but so have you – by ignoring her needs and prolonging her pain.  Can you picture her little face looking up at you?  Why were you as mean to her as everyone else had been?  She looked to you for love and kindness and you provided none, instead blaming her for causing what was not her fault.  Did you perhaps feel that there must have been a reason all these bad things happened and that she must have deserved such misfortune?  Have you become so hardened and cynical by the let-downs of life that there’s no compassion left inside your heart for someone else?  For yourself?  That’s right.  That little girl is you.  Now try and remember all of the things that have happened in your life that hurt you.  It’s not fair, is it?  All you’ve ever wanted was for the pain to stop, for that hole in your belly to heal.  You’ve been looking for something or someone to make you feel better, to change your life.  Well, that someone has been with you the whole time, just look in the mirror.  It’s not too late.  Now take that little girl and clean her up.  Give her some healthy food and nice clothes.  Make her look pretty.  Tell her that she’s wonderful and that you love her.  Tell her that she can do anything and that you will help her to have a wonderful life from this point on.  Then put her back in your pocket, next to your heart, and never forget she is there...."

 

 

 

 

Hollywood Speaks Out About the "Too-Thin" Trend

Hollywood star and British actess Kate Winslet

A few months ago, Hollywood star and British actress Kate Winslet voiced her outrage at the “glamorization of ultra-thin and size zero models and actresses.”   She said, “It's so disturbing because young girls are impressionable from 11 up to…20 even. They're trying to figure out who they are, and they want to be loved, and what I resent is that there is an image of perfection that is getting thinner and thinner, and it's truly upsetting to me.”  The actress said that she doesn’t allow any magazines featuring “rake-thin” models into her house for fear her daughter will see them.  She said, “It's only a matter of time before she becomes aware of it, and it frightens the life out of me.”  The actress said she hoped she will be an inspiration to others because, as she said, “I'm a normal person, I'm doing all right. I've got a lovely husband and children and I didn't lose weight to find those things, and those things are what should be important.”

Most recently, it was reported in a British magazine that she has been seeing a diet specialist in Los Angeles - a claim she is furiously denying. 
The allegations, which were printed in the glossy magazine Grazia, are "completely untrue," Winslet told reporters on the red carpet at the BAFTA awards in London on Sunday.
"I'm going to fight for myself. I don't want people thinking that I would ever go to a diet doctor, I would ever buy into that stuff," Winslet, who is nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her role in Little Children, told a BBC radio interviewer. "I never have done, I never will."
Last week, Grazia printed a story alleging that the actress visited the Chinese Healing Institute in Santa Monica to help with neck pain, and also to lose weight.
On Monday, attorneys for the actress at Schillings law firm in London said proceedings for libel were being issued. Winslet's rep, Sara Keene, underlined her client's feelings, saying: "Kate is angry and upset about it because it is an issue she feels very strongly about. She will be issuing legal proceedings. She wants to get the message out there."
Winslet, a mother of two, has become well known for not bowing to the trend for super-skinny actresses, and is often heralded as a role model for her stance.
"I will continue to say what I feel about this issue of women being thin and emaciated. It's just out of control," she said Sunday. "I know I'm a role model to young women. It's a role that I take very, very seriously and I would never want anyone to ever think I was a hypocrite in doing something like going to a diet doctor, for goodness sake. I mean, it's really, really ridiculous."
In 2005, Winslet told PEOPLE for the annual Most Beautiful issue, "I know that I have a real woman's figure. It's nice that it's acknowledged and appreciated, that I refuse to conform. I don't starve myself."

How do you feel about your weight, beauty, self-esteem, life?

Here are some quotes from women like you.

“I refuse to become part of this perfect-body syndrome. I like my body. It looks good on-screen, and it's not because it's perfect. I accept it and wear it like a good dress... One guy I dated said: "You're beautiful but you're soft. You can't compete with other actresses in Hollywood because everyone's in shape and working out." I said: "Very nice to meet you. Good-bye!"'  ~ Salma Hayek

 

“I'm still the little southern girl from the wrong side of the tracks who really didn't feel like she belonged.”   ~ Faye Dunaway

 

“I've been through it all, baby. I'm Mother Courage.”  ~ Elizabeth Taylor

 

“Sex appeal is 50 per cent what you've got and 50 per cent what people think you've got.”  ~ Sophia Loren

"I'd much rather be known as some curvy Kate than some skinny stick."  ~Kate Winslet

"Well, if you are walking into a club with friends and you don't have a smile on your face you are going to look lame.  But if you're happy and smile you look cute!"  ~Paris Hilton

"I rejected some forgeous publicity shots because they just didn't look like me.  I won't wear skanky clothes taht show off my booty, my belly or boobs.   I have a great body.  I could be Britney.  I could be better than Britney."  ~Avril Lavigne

“Happiness is good health and a bad memory.”  ~ Ingrid Bergman

 

“When you reliquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness.”  ~ Nicole Kidman

 

“My theory is that if you look confident you can pull off anything - even if you have no clue what you’re doing.”  ~ Jessica Alba

 

“I was always told I was special. And I was also assured that I had a gift and a purpose.”~ Ashley Judd 

 

“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”  ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

 

“Dreams can become a reality when we possess a vision that is characterized by the willingness to work hard, a desire for excellence and a belief in our right and our responsibility to be equal members of society.”  ~ Janet Jackson
