ARE MODELS 2 THIN

Ana Carolina Reston, 21 died of heart failure during a fashion show. She weighed 88 pounds and was five feet eight inches tall. She and many models today have anorexia.

The sample size was "7" when i was a model. I weighed one hundred and ten pounds. I was not skinny and most of the other models were not either. Today, many designers are not looking for the super-skinny. They want to see healthy and slim young girls. It is good that this look is now again becoming the ideal, as it was years ago.

Today, the average model is five foot nine and weighs 114 pounds. BMI of 16.8

The average young woman is 5-4 and weighs 169. BMI of 29

BMI 24.9 is the high end of the healthy range and over 29 is considered obese.

On the cat walk
one by one the models go
thoughts of food

She struts her walk
on the runway
her hips sway

Her long hair
sways this way and that
long gliding steps
on the cat walk
in a bridal gown
