If there’s something that most women would agree then that’s the fact that you can never be too skinny. This is the obsession of our century and all women try really hard to get as skinny as possible so that they would love what they see in the mirror and because they think that’s what’s beautiful and what men want.

They desire to be skinny so much that they try horrible and unhealthy diets, they work out, they take pills, they throw up and they even starve themselves just to get that perfect figure that they see in the media. The problem is that most of the time the images they see in the media are fake and photoshopped and the women they dream to be are just as flawed as normal women.

According togistandrhymes.com, the title of the skinniest woman or man in the world is one title you would not want to bear after reading the story of this woman.

Valeria Levitina has earned for herself the title of the skinniest woman in the world ans she has even being referred to as a living mummy, surely you know the term “mummy” here is not of a woman who has a child but of a living woman having semblance with an Egyptian mummy.

Though she has since being cured of her Anorexia, she has not been able to regain her weight, and the most pathetic or say the most surprising part of her story is the fact that she says so many young girls from all over the world send her mail asking how she can help them lose weight like her and this is what made her to come out to warn young people of the dangers of being unhappy with their body.
