The Model & Celeb Weight Thread [Read post #1 before posting] #1

[papa_levante]

I personally don't think Michelle Buswell or Fernanda Tavares or Eugenia Volodina have normal bodies. I dunno if you were saying the girls at the Versace show weren't thin or not

Sorry xmodel to confuse you, but I wasn't referring to the Versace video at all. (I didn't even watch it.)

go to VS thread you'll find most of the posts are about whose body's better and who look hotter totally forgotten the clothes that I think must of the people never seem to look at the clothes on VS

It's not just about the clothes. Taking prestige away from the models make them expendable. It's a very smart economic move actually.

The agencies didn't like the supermodels becoming independent of them. However, it's a two-edged sword. If the models are not allowed to become 'personalities', the public does not care to have them on covers. They are less valuable. Even D-list actresses have become more valuable.

I see your point, but from an economic point of view it really isn't a two-edged sword. Why not put D-list actors on covers? The public, god knows why, like paying attention to the likes of Paris and Lindsay. It's a bad position for models, and it's getting worse, but how much the corporate machine takes that into account is little.

of course they are. the whole body function goes on standby when you are that thin and weak..

to J.M.L. there is also the possibility that they're losing hair and someday it might be possible that they lose their teeth. A lot of young anorexic girls also develop severe osteoporosis before the age of 40.

From the American Pregnancy Association:

Can I ovulate without having a period?

Since a woman releases an egg 12-16 days before her expected period, it is possible for women to get pregnant without having periods. Women who are not menstruating due to a certain condition (i.e.…low body weight, breastfeeding, perimenopause) risk the chance of ovulating at any point. For those who want to conceive, the lack of periods could make it more difficult to know the timing of ovulation if you are not charting temperature and cervical fluid changes. But if you are not having periods and wanting to prevent pregnancy, a form of contraception should be used since there is no way to know when ovulation will occur.

Please make sure you read up on information before accusing someone of sharing falsities, karen sofie.

Thank you for sharing that source, Bianca.
