Katie:
Balance between healthy and over healthy. 
Love you because you were made in God’s image
Body is a temple for the Holy Spirit, so protect
Don’t let the world define the way our bodies should look, but instead turn to scripture. 
As a woman, world tries to define how we should look
World also agrees with totally unhealthy, so not cool
“Be a lady they said” poem - "Don’t be too fat. Don’t be too thin. Eat up. Slim down. Stop eating so much. Don’t eat too fast. Order a salad. Don’t eat carbs. You need to lose weight. Go on a diet. God, you look like a skeleton. Why don’t you just eat? You look sick. Eat a burger. Men like women with some meat on their bones. Be light. Be little. Be petite. Be feminine."

Bible Verse for the topic
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 ESV 
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
Romans 12:1-2 ESV 
I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
