The Price of Beauty

Beauty should be about making people feel good about themselves and happy with who they are, NOT trying to make people look like photoshopped supermodels.

• Twenty years ago, models weighed 8% less than the average woman. Today, they weigh 23% less than the average woman

• One out of every four college aged women has an eating disorder
• One half of 4th grade girls are on a diet
• 79% of teenage girls who vomit and 73% of teenage girls who use diet pills are frequent readers of women’s health and fitness magazines
• A study found that 25% of Playboy centerfolds met the weight criteria for Anorexia
• Marilyn Monroe was 5’5” and weighed 135 pounds. The modern day "voluptuous" model has been Pamela Anderson at 5’7” and 120 pounds

Let's help women to have a healthier body image, one that is conducive to their natural body weight. Some women are born with small structures others with larger structures. Healthy is the key. Strive to eat healthy and stay active rather than diet. I threw away my scale over 20 years ago. 

Be mindful of critical remarks of young girls about their looks or weight. These early comments can affect them their whole lives. 

Encourage your daughters, nieces, sisters to have REAL LIFE role models rather than Movie Stars and Models.
