Say No to Size Zero – The size zero war!!

As a new anti-size zero campaign is launched, sadly it seems the skinny trend is far from over.

It’s a debate that’s divided the nation for years, But last week, the size zero argument stepped up a notch when former- Wonderbra model Katie Green launched her “say no to size zero! campaign.

Katie who quit her job with Wonderbra in 2008 after being told she needed to lose 2 stone in weight, launched a petition to demand the Government put a policy in place ensuring all models are health-checked before they undertake any high-profile campaigns.
But despite this new war on size zero, it seems that the fashion industry’s ultra-skinny ideal is still seen as the body shape to aspire to by many in the public eye.

To sign the petition go to www.katiegreenofficial.com.

Catching up on life and everything else

I have missed so much of my life. I have had to grow up faster than I should have. People treated me like I was an adult and doing adult things when I was still a child.
I missed out, I feel like I missed everything that is important to making you who you are in the adult world. I want to go back and do all the things that you are supposed to do as a child, I want to be able to be running around in a swimming costume without the fear of my father liking it a bit too much! I want to be able to have friends over for a sleep over without the fear that I would need to hide everything about me and my family pretending to be something they are not.
But I cant go back, I realised this a little while and to be honest it scared the shit out of me. For some messed up reason I thought I could go back and do it all again but this time to do it my way, but I dont have the chance to do that.
But I am still here, I am still standing, the fuckers did not get me down! Yes they messed me up, yes they made my child life a living hell but I am still here!

So I am taking a little challenge on myself. I am going to complete all the things I wanted to do as a child. Each week I am going to let you all know what I am going to do and if you want to join in then that is great but if not and you just want to chat that is cool too.

I know those with eating disorders or mental health issues miss out on alot in their life and I am not going to keep missing it. I am going to catch up on what I did miss and I am going to make sure I miss nothing else!

Things are ok for me at the moment, I may not have much family etc but I have a boyfriend, a baby on the way and my own company. I am showing my shit parents that I dont need them, they do not define me anymore and I am adament I am going to make this work. If there are bumps on the way, well that I am used to and I will deal with them one at a time until I get to my goal!.

Peace out.

OPEN FORUM HERE!!

Ok, so it seems that mamaVISION has either chosen to take out her open forum or it has simply been mislayed somewhere! Not sure, however not that bothered now. I emailed to let her know that it had gone and asked where it was, but got nothing back. Not really a shock to be honest with you!!

Speaking of honest….. just to let you all know… Im pregnant! Just found out and im happy about it so thats good right?!

I am glad to see you all here and the open forum is still here for anyone who wishes to use it, feel free to be honest and speak your mind, just like I do!!

love you all

TS is BACK!!

Hey all!

 

I am back!

 

Ive been thinking alot since I left about this blog and about mamavision too.

I felt guilty when I first left TS and MV, feeling like I was leaving people or letting people down.  That feeling did not go, I still feel like I should have stayed but now I know different things and understand stuff alot better and it seems that I am also finding out new things about people that I thought I was close to, thought were my friends. Well Guess what?? Not everyone is who they say they are, no matter how open you think they are being or how helpful you think they are. I have learnt a huge lesson while I was taking a break from the blog, and I will not let anyone else find out the hard way of what can happen when you trust someone so much online and you think everything is going to be fine. 

 

Now I am back and I have new things I want to say and believe me, I will not hold back, I still maintain that this is my blog and I will say what I want on it and I will be honest with you all and myself with what I say. Some things WILL be harsh, some things will also be quite hard to read but I am not hiding all this anymore, people need to know the reality of what is actually going on!

 

The bitch is back, and my bite is worse than ever! You know I am talking to you, and you know I am going to expose you for who you are!!! I will not put pictures and I will not mention things that are personal but I will be telling everyone what they can expect if they follow that path of yours!!!!

 

 

On another note: I miss you all, I want to know what is going on with you all xx

THings are SHIT!!

I thought everything was going ok, I thought it would all sort itself out and things would get better for me but no, when I take 1 step forward I then take ten steps back again.
I feel like crap, I look like shit and I have lost two people in my life since February!! So all in all everything is now going down the pan and I have no idea how to stop it or now find the energy to trust people who were not in my life before who now want to be.

Apart from that everything is ok and the company is now up and running.

This is TS.

Hi guys,

 

I thought I would check in and see how you are all doing?

 

I am alright, I mean I completed and passed my NVQ which is good, my eating is slipping and sliding in every direction which is slightly offputting as I thought I was doing quite well. However, I have now met someone who is being amazing. Although he doesn’t fully know my whole story yet, he is being a great help just by being there and accepting me for me. No bull shit, just me. And he makes me laugh which for me is a big deal as its hard to remember to laugh.

 

soooo what is new with everyone on here? I hope you are all ok, love you and miss you all

Comparing.

Hey guys, So… Heres my thought for the day-
Why do we compare ourselves to others?

I do it, My friends do it, Im sure you all do too.

But, anyways- I was at something last night. And there was someone there. & all I could think about was, “Oh my gosh, shes really skinny.” And after that thought my thoughts just got darker and darker.

& as much as I hated it. & knew I shouldnt be thinking like that & that it would trigger bad things, I just couldnt stop.

Luckily for me, I had some wonderful people get me through last nights hell. And that person made some very good points to me.
1.Who cares if shes skinny.
2.He would like her even if she wasnt.
3.Im more important than her, and I love you. So whats it matter.

And you know what, Those are soo true. If you have people in your life, that are wayyy more important than who your comparing yourself to, then why let it bother you? Why even contemplate the idea of comparison?

Anyways- Do any of you do that? What do you find that helps you block out those thoughts? And those of you that dont do it, whats your secret?

Wait wait wait, you know, after typing “whats your secret?” I just realized the answer to that. Being comfortable and happy with YOU! Haha, but thats just logically thinking. Maybe I can take some steps towards that today. & the rest of you can too. Whats it going to hurt?

Take care, stay strong, and keep fighting.
If not for yourself, for that “important person” you have in your life.

Im standing down from twistedSISTER

Hi everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that I am standing down as twistedSISTER. I dont know how long I will be gone for, I dont know if I will be back. But the site will remain open and various others will be posting instead. All people posting will automatically appear as TS, although it is at their discretion if they choose to reveal who they are.

I am standing down at the moment because I cant deal with everything at the moment and I dont know what to do aboutit. And I think I need a break from this and everything else in my life. I just want everything to stop for a little, stop so I can catch up. But I dont know if that will ever be possible.

Ill pop in from time to time and I will let you know when it is me posting. I love you all and Iwill stil have access to all emails if you want to email me xxx

love you all always I hope that you all find your way out of the hell.

yours always

I am having a bad couple of days, and now I am hurting myself and I cant stop! I want to but I cant, I am feeling new degrees of anger and sadness that I haven’t felt for a while and its killing me!!!
