British woman show her support for body image

I'm unsure of the nuances of all this, yet it seems like a genuine effort to promote a healthy respect for one's self-image

I liked it.

Body image issues aren't always about how fat or skinny you are.

The majority of people spend a shocking amount of time worrying about what they look like to others.

I'm about to give that crap up myself. :)

My 10 year old son admitted yesterday that he "would give anything to live one day as a skinny person."

Ouch.

Where did I go wrong? He is only about 5 pounds overweight and its mostly baby fat that may very well go away during puberty. While I can't control the media or his friends, I need to do a better job influencing a healthy body image. Thanks for posting this article.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
