Another chunk of wisdom from Nacy Hayssen....
"I'm so tired of seeing "weight loss" this and "flat ab" that. It's out of control!
The message that the media implies through TV,
magazines and the internet is:
"No Matter How Much You Weigh, You're Still Too FAT!"
Let's stop the insanity ... your scale cannot determine your happiness!
According to a recent Prevention Magazine/NBC Survey, 60% of American women have dieted or are on a diet and 44% of women refuse to be photographed in a swimsuit.
How is it that women have learned to hate their own bodies so much in our country?
There is no "right" or "wrong" size to be.
Just be happy with the size you are, just they way you are- right now. The unattainable illusion of one perfect weight has been chased after long enough - now is the time to break the pattern of self-hate that Hollywood has encouraged.
Today is the day for you to make the change in your own mind and accept yourself in spite of what the scale says, or maybe even because of it.
The truth is you are uniquely you, no matter what size you are."
Amen to that!
