Is there such thing as a perfect body? If you asked a guy they would probably reply yea, Jessica Alba. If you asked a girl she would say oh my gosh yes, Paul Walker. Do these actors even have the perfect body though? Do you think that if they went to do a photo shoot that no photo editing would be done before the photos were printed? Even though we see these celebrity figures as having perfect bodies, the photo editors can always find something to enhance. Young girl’s today see themselves striving for excellence when it comes to their body. Whether the girl is over weight or really under weight, trust me she is wanting to change SOMETHING about her body. My hips are too big, my thighs are huge, my boobs are too small, I have a huge nose,and I wish I had bigger lips, I know everyone out there has heard atleast one of these or even said one of these phrases in their lifetime. If you think girls are the only ones who are self conscience about their body, Ha your wrong, very wrong. Guys are just as self conscience about there bodies, if not more than girls. As guys become teenagers or young adults there testosterone starts going crazy. They find themselves wanting to be the tallest, strongest, and most cut guy in the school, or even in the town. They do everything they can in order to reach their goals, even if it means taking 2 to 3 or even more supplements a day. They go to extreme measures just like girls do in order to be satisfied with themselves. Is it just me or is it after you fix one thing you don’t like about yourself , you find one more you need to fix? It’s like a never ending job. Your always looking for that next best product to make you look better in any kind of way. Your always finding weird diets to go on, even though they never seem to work. You find your self crash dieting before a pageant, prom, and spring break. Is it worth the pain and torture though? Should you have to suffer to push yourself to the extremes in order to please others? The answer is simply, no. Of course no one wants to be ugly but I’m here to tell you not everyone is going to look like Angelina or Mr. Brad Pitt. Each and every person has a beauty, whether its internal or external, there is something special in us all. We need to stop worrying about looking like the guy or girl on the cover of Maxim, and start trying to find the good things about ourselves. There is no perfect body people so stop striving for it, it’s not going to happen. You may say that the whole inner beauty is cliche but hey its true! Intelligence, integrity, and being kind hearted is going to get you ALOT further in life than having a hot body, trust me….

Way cool video link! Wow, even Oprah lets the pros help her get ready for magazine covers, huh?
Very intelligent post lyndseylu34. I wish more people were concerned about their HEALTH instead of their LOOKS when it comes to the way they treat their bodies. You are right: not all of us can look like Angelina and Brad! Why would we want to? If everyone looked the same, how BORING the world would be!
