Question: Entertainment industry!?!?!?
Im an aspiring actress hoping to find a breakthrough it the entertainment industry very very soon!. I am 14 years old but I am a size 10!.

Please don't be mean!. :]Www@QuestionHome@Com

With all due respect, you probably shouldn't stress with regard to size, versus acting!. IF YOU have a sense that you want to lose weight, be more fit, it should be for so many other reasons than being a STAR!.
Beyond that it saddens me that at 14 one needs to stress about how to reduce 2 or 4 sizes!. For one thing, you omit any detail about height, and weight, though the weight isn't our business, but if we assumed you were 145 and 4' 11" at 14, as an example, it might matter to you, but if you are a size 10, at 14, and already 5' 8" etc!. I suspect your proportions are more Usual!.
On a Psyhcological note, going back to the WHY of this Q!. To look for, and accept "BIG GIRL" roles might get you some work, but it won't cure any underlying issues,,,in fact it may cause you to be OK with such roles, which might actually be OK, or NOT,,, in your opinion, depending on things such as self esteem otherwise!.
I won't even go to "GOD made you that way, live with it", BUT, there are those of us, likely numbering into the millions, who have flaws, or are unhappy about something about us!. It hardly needs to rule ones life however!.
I can frame my face with my hands and find perhaps a dozen things I might change, but why!?!?!?
If your body works for you, if your not unhealthy in a 10, if you aren't beat up or harrassed, if you have qualities that cause you to be a Valid human otherwise, then stop stressing and do what you might want to explore as a passion, no matter!.
Certainly you can see tabloid Crap about actresses who look Bulimic, or an OOOPS on a beach where some scum papparazi captured a flab roll, or cellulite,,,AND too you can find Comediennes, who have made MILLIONS even making fun of themselves,,, which I personally find demeaning, but it happens!. Rosanne Barr (Yikes) is a prime example of a Warrior comic, and Insults, even about herself seems to be her thing!. Big Sigh!.
Consider that with any grace you could live another 70 plus years, is this some issue you want to worry over for that length of time!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

It all depends on the role there looking for, if it's someone big!.!. you have a better chance to get it then some one small, but if there looking for some one small then you most likely won't get the part!.!.!. and a lot of the time it doesn't matter!. So if you want to lose some weight it wouldn't hurt but if you want to stay thats fine too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

uhm it depends on how you look!.!.
