BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Body Image The crazy things we do...

We all want to look great and sometimes, even at the expense of our health. When I was younger, if I needed to lose a few pounds, I just stopped eating. I didnt think, or care, about the long term effects....I wanted a better body, NOW! As I have aged, this unwise practice has reeked havoc on my metabolism and it is very difficult to shed pounds. I am wondering what crazy things others have done to gain the perfect body????

I think you have to consult to some professional before doing the craxy things. These crazy think may harm you sometime. So be careful

Roosevelt....have you ever done anything crazy for the sake of beauty?

I've done the same - not eaten to lose weight quickly. Luckily my metabolism hasn't - suffered so far! Probably the most crazy things I done for beauty is dye my hair myself. I've ended up with red, bright orange, green, blonde(ish) and jet black hair over the years.

Every time I had to buy another dye to counter the last one. The worst was the day before my wedding I dyed my hair and it was far to dark so I ended up in the hairdressers having the color stripped out before putting a softer color on. I also had to have quite a lot cut off as I damaged it so bad.

It all turned out in the end though its a wonder I have any hair left the way I've treated it - eek!

Thanks for sharing Tracy... Wow...the day before your wedding?? I would have been panicking!! I have such a love/hate relationship with hairdressers I vacillate between the pros and doing it myself. Sometimes I get lucky and then other times....not so much. :)
