Well I am the perfect candidate for this question so I decided to give you an answer.
I have serious body issues and try limiting myself to eating once a day and making sure its just vegetables. That's what I limit myself to. And I can say that magazines and television have a HUGE impact on the way I feel about myself. Although it's not the reason I choose not to eat. But whenever I see a model or celebrity on tv or in a magazine it makes me feel horrible about myself and makes me wan to cry and it makes me stride to eat less that day if at all. I can't really tell you what "too fat" or "too skinny" is because I have a warped vision of myself and my answers wouldn't be accurate to everyone elses but I will let you know that I believe that there is no such thing as being too skinny and I guess that's why I feel the way I do. I am 5'8 and weight 120lbs and that's depressing to me. I hope this answer helped you.

well, it kind of does but i know that they are like anorexic(at least they look that way.) Too skinny is like "stick" like really really skinny i dont really know how to explain it. Too big is like flabby and gross but if you exercise and arent flabby but like muscular thatn i dont really think thats big. lol hope i helped.

hey
okay, magazines and tv influence anorexia and bulimia in lots of ways. everyday, girls look at images and videos of women they admire and look up to and see how unbelievablly skinny they are. because these women and celebrities are many girls' role models, they follow their lead. therefore, they end up becoming so obsessed with looking like their role model that they become anorexic or bulimic.
too big, to me, is when youre so "fat" that when an aerial view of you is produced, your stomach sticks out farther than your breasts. it's also when your bmi is wayy too high. too small / skinny is when i can see your bones. healthy is when your breasts and butt are pretty much equal size (okay okay your butt can be a little bigger =P) and you have an almost flat stomach. healthy is also when you stand with your feet parallel to your arms and your inner thighs can barely or very close to touching.
that's just my opinion - i hope i helped :]
