Everyday, Elise would wake up, brush her teeth, wash her face and drank water then she would walk down to the kitchen to pick five grapes and have one orange.
After breakfast, she would weight herself and write in her diary of how much weight she had lost. She was always disappointed that she was still the same weight.
Elise, would do two hours of exercise then she would put on her running gear and then listen to her music and let the world disappear. She didn't get out much she stayed in almost everyday, Monday, Wednesday and Sunday were the days you would go out and run. After running she turned the key and made her way to the bathroom to have a shower. She could feel her bones and she hated that, she hated the way they felt and the way they stuck out. She hated everything about her body, she wanted to be someone else. Anyone else except her.
There were two friends that Elise could bare, to be with, Mary and Amber. Mary was an easy going young lady who loved the out doors, she loved swimming and going out. Amber was a wild women who drank like a fish and yet was very ladylike when it came to men.
Today, Mary and Amber had enough of Elise being miserable they were going to change Elise even if it killed them and however long it took they would get her out of this madness.
"Right Elise, look, look in the mirror" ordered Amber.
"Why? I don't want to. I look disgusting" she replied.
"You are perfect the way you are" said Mary.
"My bones stick out, they look and feel horrible".
"Right, I can't see your bones and you have a great figure" Mary said honestly.
"I hate my body, I want your body" as she looked at Amber she started to cry.
"Elise, if you just look in the mirror and see our bodies compared to yours then you will see that you are perfect the way you are". As she said this both Mary and Amber stood there in their underwear.
As Elise looked in the mirror you could tell that she hated doing it but she loved her friends deeply and knew that they were only trying to help her out. She started to smile and then happy tears started to fall.
"Why are you crying?" asked Amber
"Their happy tears, they are..." as she stopped a loud laugh came out
"What's so funny?" Mary asked
"ha ha ha ha you have hello kitty underwear on"
Mary now had gone red as she totally forgot about hello kitty staring back at her in the mirror.
"It's so easy to judge others isn't it but for gods sake, don't judge yourself you are perfect the way you are"
As they all stood there looking at each other in their underwear they all smiled together and laughed.
