 |
|
| I am a frequent myspace user, and I have noticed more lately all the weight loss ads. They are annoying in and of themselves, but what is more annoying, is the thin people in them who can barely pinch a little roll of fat between their fingers! I can't tell you how this irritates me! Last time I checked that was called healthy, not in need of losing weight or diet pills. No wonder girls are suffering from eating disorders more and more and earlier in life. Anybody else feel the same way?Actually, I think it backfires. In my case, anyway. I get so sick of seeing every other ad on the computer or tv being about some way t lose weight, that I just feel like, screw it. Which, I am and always will be stubborn and wanting to go against the crowd. Not that I am endorsing obesity. Just enough already with being bombarded!Oh yeah, you not only lose weight, but also get a six pack and tan, lol. |

| I have never cared about the weight I've gained after each of my 5 babies, but now my health is mattering to me (35ys.). This cleansing program works! And takes off fat while leaving muscle. you can't lose fat when so many toxins are attached to the fat cells. |

| OMG, YES!!! I'm also sick and tired of seeing thin people in exercise commercials. It's unrealistic. Most people who do lose weight will NEVER look like the people in the ads, and those people make everything look easy.What I'd like to see is actual fat people using these products, and then over time you see them lose weight/tone up. No before-and-after pics, either. |

| i totally agree. this summer i was traveling with family a lot, and everytime i went on the computer i saw one of those ads. i wasn't around teenage girls a lot, so i thought that i had gotten really fat, but hadn't. so i kind of developed an eating disorder. but it's okay, because when i got back to school, i found out that i was wayyyy too skinny, and i was cold all the time because i was so skinny. i did a body fat test, and my body fat had dropped to 11%. not good. oh yeah. and now that i started eating regularly again, it's made me even more secure because people noticed how little i wasn't eating before, and now i realize how much my body was craving food, and once i start eating i can't stop. |
