  A Dangerous Concept
  For a long time,there has been a growing zest for thinness.The woman in the picture wants to become thinner.No wonder nowadays people,especially young girls,are longing to become slim.
  However,this pursuit of thinness may be quite dangerous.Usually, people try to get slim in the following ways:exercising,dieting and taking medication.
