This document discusses body image and its influences. It begins by defining body image as how one views themselves physically based on what they see in the mirror and how they feel others perceive them. It then explores how peers, parents, puberty, and media influence body image and can lead to issues like eating disorders, depression, and low self-esteem. The document also provides information on seeking help through activities, therapy, and treatment centers.
2. Thesis Statement So many people are worried about how they look and how people think about them. The age of someone feeling insecure about his or her looks is decreasing dramatically. In 1990, the age was 8. Their peers, parents, puberty, and mostly the media influence them to either diet, obtain eating disorders, or over exercise. Everyone needs to realize that everyone is beautiful in his or her own way, and that no one is perfect.
3. Personal Relevance Mostly everyone goes through some faze of feeling negatively about themselves. I know I have had days where I feel like I could be skinnier and look prettier, but then I realize that you are who you are and if you’re happy then that is all that matters.

81. Conclusion Throughout my project I hope that everyone realized that it is okay to look different because that is what makes everyone of you beautiful inside and out. No one should be able to change your perception of yourself except for you. Hopefully the numbers of people who have a negative body image decrease soon and people realize that they no one is perfect.
