life in the fast lane: okay, a lot of people are quick to separate "healthy thinspo" from "unhealthy thinspo"

life-inthe-fast-lane:

while yeah, one is more offensive than another because outwardly supports unhealthy views towards eating, ideal body image, etc.

they both are unhealthy (for me to look at)

posting picture after picture of “ideal bodies” isn’t healthy.

why?

because we naturally compare ourselves to them. when…

Amen! Thank god I am not the only one who feels this way!
