As a teenager, Moody experiences first-hand the effects of not being accepted into the world of the perfect body. Moody saw how badly her friend wanted to be skinny. No one wanted to be the chubby girl at school. Since the age of nine, her friends would force themselves on a strict diet to accommodate the skinny image. In fact, not eating does not cause individuals to lose weight, rather than eating their meals in smaller proportions.

I run from our small kitchen to our living room. Dad is on the couch and looks up when I run into the room. The pain is too much to even to make the smallest of noises. I run in my mouth open and top half of me soaking. He rises quickly and pulls me to the stairs and calls for mom. “Ronae, get down here now.” He says…

Though the children’s withdrawals seem a bit ridiculous, I have unfortunately experienced the same withdrawals those kids felt. As a middle school student, I attended Hartford County 4H Camp which banned technology from the camp’s premises.
