Seriously, young impresionable pre-teen and teen girls need to be looking up to beautiful, confident, successful women who are not only HEALTHY but happy with there bodies as is. Women like ....

This.
Thats right! 98%. Suprised? I'm not.
So ladies, what does that mean? it means EAT. Thats right. I said it. EAT. Get in your cars, drive to the nearest Mcdonalds, and get that Big mac you've been craving. Go on. Screw the extra 250 calories of excess fat. After living off of celery and water for 9 months, i'd say you deserve it, wouldn't you?
So, as i close todays post i'll leave you all with this final statement...
Love yourself as you are, because if you dont, how is anyone else supposed to? Besides. Noone likes to see a walking skeleton. Put some meat on those bones! Anorexia is SO last year. All i'm saying is, you dont have to be skin and bones to be skinny, but obviously you don't have to eat fast food everyday, either. Instead, try investing in some of these healthy, not to mention yummy goods - all of which have been given a "personal stamp of approval" by me, and can be purchased at your local grocery store. :].
1. Crispbreads.
These whole-grain rye crackers, are loaded with fiber and are often fat-free.
2.Quaker rice cakes
These amazing things come in many delicious flavors [apple cinammon being my favorite] have ZERO fat and just 50 calories in one. Whenever i get a cookie craving, i'll eat one of these with some sort of spread [like peanutbutter, yumm.] instead.
3.Nonfat-Cottage cheese
Not much to say here, i just love the stuff.
4.Tribe brand hummus
A dip that is mostly eaten with pita bread, but can also be spread on whole-grain crackers or chips.
5.Sugar Free Jello
Sugar free Jell-O is a great snack that will satisfy your sweet tooth and help you control overall calories.
6.Whole Wheat Tortillas
Great with a melted low-cal Cheese Spread.
7. Annie's Naturals Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette
An amazing Low-cal dressing. TIP: Make a vegetable tray and instead of ranch, use this as a dip.
Also, try these quick, healthy, easy to make recipes whenever you get a snack-attack.
1.cold cut veggies dipped in salsa mixed with fat free sour cream.
2.AGAIN fresh veggies! Broccoli is my favorite - add a little light dressing if you need the extra flavor. Or try fruit with a little peanut butter .
3.A big bowl of steamed cauliflower (or brocolli) with parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
4.FROZEN BLUEBERRIES!!!! Eat them in 3/4 cup portions (only 62cals.) The good thing about this one is, they take a long time to eat and they really fill you up!
5. Try a cheese melt! Spread half a teaspoon of spicy mustard on a small slice of thin whole-grain rye bread. Add a thin square of Cheddar cheese (about the same size as the bread) and broil until the cheese melts. Then, top with a slice of tomato.
Peace, love, and food.
