OK...To write this blog I have to admit something that I'm not really proud of...I was watching the Tyra Banks Show while I was getting ready this morning.

Topic: Skinny girl wears a fat suit to see what its like to be fat. One day in a fat suit to a skinny girl = a lifetime of weight struggle. Fair enough don't ya think?!

So the skinny girl said that it was horrible, but being too skinny (which she claims to be) is just as bad. Which it might be, it's one thing I have yet to experience. Can't really put on a skinny suit now can ya?

So Tyra in all the ghetto she can muster up goes off on this girl. (For full effect, please say in a ghetto voice while shaking your head and pointing your finger in the air)

Have you ever lost a job for being to thin? Do guys turn you down for being too thin? Are the girls in the magazine to thin? Girls in the magazine, girls in magazines...What you talkin' bout Tyra?

I'm normally not one on the skinny chicks side, but I was today. As I was watching shaking my head for more reasons then one, I thought I would write Tyra a letter. But not a real letter (b/c she might think I'm a fan) but a blog...So here it is.

Dearest Ty-Ty,
I being average, if not a little overweight, watched your show today and you were mean to the skinny chick. Mean! Mean! Mean!

The "girl" in the magazine that you were talking about is you. I don't know if you realize this (you should b/c you said it 100 times in the five mins I watched), but not only are you a "top model" but you have a show that puts skinny girls up against each other for the job.

I totally understand that you also spent the day in the fat suit, so you understand everything there is to being an overweight girl. I don't want to take that away from you. I just think before you go yelling at the skinny you should look in the mirror and realize, you are the skinny girl!

Normally I wouldn't care. That was the most I've ever seen of your show, but I just hate seeing skinny girls fight. It makes me sad! :(

Love always,
Coco
