Spain moves to close down websites that tell girls it’s good to be anorexic
This is really too much. I sometimes get frustrated seeing all the ads for concoctions that supposedly make the pounds “melt” off, knowing that most, if not all, of them are the modern equivalent of snake oil. But telling girls that being anorexic is good? You’ve got to be kidding me. Don’t girls (and boys, for that matter) get enough pressure to look perfect without something like this too? Turn on the television, right now, and start thumbing through the channels and take a good look at the shows that a teenager might be watching. Look at the girl’s magazines the next time you’re in the grocery checkout. I promise you won’t feel terribly good about the experience.
This type of thing is what made me want to start this blog in the first place. I believe that it’s not only possible, but more likely, to lose weight by making small, healthy changes that you can really stick with. Even more important, it’s crucial that women and men stop judging their appearance and worth by the number on their bathroom scale. Endeavor to do something every day to improve your health, and be happy with yourself, as you are right now. Don’t wait until you’ve achieved the “perfect” body to like yourself. You deserve it today, not someday.
