Even A-list movie stars like Anne Hathaway have their insecurities.
"I still feel the stress over 'Am I thin enough? Am I too thin? Is my body the right shape?'" the Les Miserables star admits in the January issue of Glamour. "There's an obsessive quality to it that I thought I would've grown out of by now. It's an ongoing source of shame for me."
Being in the public eye exacerbates her body woes, according to the star. "I just think about the ridicule you get if you have an off day. If people weren't watching, I'd be so much more eccentric. I know it makes me sound weak, but rather than make myself happy and wear the silly hat and say, 'Oh, I don't care.' I actually really don't feel like getting made fun of," she says. "So I put on something boring and navy and go out and try to disappear."
Since late 2007, Hathaway has been trying to ignore the negative thoughts in her head and focus on the positives in her life. (At the time, she had recently split with Italian real estate developer Raffaello Follieri, who pleaded guilty to 14 counts of wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy in October 2008. Says the star, "My trust had "been betrayed quite massively.")
"There's no magic bullet. There's no pill that you take that makes everything great and makes you happy all the time," Hathaway says. "I'm letting go of those expectations, and that's opening me up to moments of transcendent bliss."

and then others you're like "wow, they really look amazing now!"
bodies are weird. #shrug#
always. cold.
Also I had a big head. Huge.
The worst is hanging out with your thin friends and having guys come up and talk to them and you're in the corner just like, "Oh, I thought we were going to hang out I guess not...welp at least I have alcohol...thank you, alcohol."
Once, a friend and I started okcupid profiles and she got almos a hundred messages in a week and I had maybe 10. Oh my god it was the most depressing moment for me and I promptly deleted my profile.
I mean in general, unless you are emaciated to the point of having your sternum bones protrude from your chest, society is much kinder to you if you are thin.
