Question

"It looks so good on you," said my friend. I was trying on a bathing suit. Then the topic of conversation turned to going on a diet(節(jié)食).

I wanted to become pretty and thin. So I decided to stick to the diet. I didn't eat my lunch. Some people asked me where my lunch was. I lied to them and made up excuses.

I did the same with breakfast. I tricked(欺騙) my dad into thinking that I ate my bread, but I fed it to the cat. My weight dropped fast, but when I looked at myself in the mirror, I still thought I was not thin enough.

Finally, dark circles formed under my eyes. I wore thick clothing in hot weather, but I was still cold. That didn't matter. I still needed to be thinner.

About a month after I bought the bathing suit, I tried it on again, and it fell right off me. My mother told me to look in the mirror. I could see my eye sockets(眼窩). That was the day I realized how skinny I was.

I went to see a doctor. My total weight loss was about twenty-five pounds in one month. It took one year for my body to start working normally again.

Sometimes I want to go back to being thin, but I will never do what I did again. It's not worth it. Please don't go on a diet when you're young. You will regret it. Don't judge and compare yourself with others. Try to love yourself for who you are, not for what you look like.
