SITUATION 1 Suzy is a very pretty girl. She has a beautiful face and beautiful hair. She is not very happy with her body size. She weighs about fifteen pounds more than her friends. Suzy says, "My friends are so much prettier than I am. I am so fat. I wish I could be as skinny as they are." She also says, "It's not fair that you guys are so skinny and I am fat." When Suzy comes home from school she is starved to death. She is a picky eater. She doesn't like the things they serve at lunch, so she spends her lunch money in the candy and Coke machine at school.
