Well you little ladies, I am in double digits, and spent less than three months of my life as a size 10 AND LOVED IT...but it is hard to maintain. No one likes women on "diets" because women don't like to be told what they can and cannot do, much less can or cannot eat...
Right now I am doing a program where the eating regime is healthy, yet controlled (4 of these, two of these, none of these) and one of the "counselors" is a young, skinny, unmarried, childless girl who has never had a weight issue, under OR over, and cannot "counsel" me on why I eat, what I eat when I eat...
It's a very ugly cycle, and I was inappropriately not nice to her this past week.
But I digress...
I have lost the weight before, I will lose it again, and Hopefully will not gain it back, but knowing me and my metabolism, it could happen...
What's the point? Those diet commercials are playing to the lowest denominated brain cells, those who are so desparate to attain the magazine/celebrity/fashion designer body that they will do/pay/ingest/vomit up whatever works for them.
Here is what I think...we need to see that women who are not size 10 are still worthy of fashions that are not made of polyester and stretchy fabric.

Oh we need soooo many things...
for society to realize that women's value and worth are in no way correlated to their dress size.
for American to get healthy physically and psychologically (eat less/exercise more; stop eating disorders and fat discrimination).
for idiots to wise up and realize that the celebrity and designer bodies are rather expensive (trainers, hours and hours working out, SURGERY).
for people to stop being so fucking shallow and for fashion/advertising industries to FINALLY acknowledge that sexy comes in all shapes and sizes.
for the entertainment industry to stop making shows like The Swan and Extreme Makeover (or whatever the hell it's called).
for the diet industry to stop capitalizing on people's insecurities and start giving some sound fucking advice.
for everyone to realize that the revolution will not be televised.
