I'm not saying, settle for being unheathy. One can be physically fit and try to eat decently, but still not have what *society* would have us believe is the perfect body.
Exactly! It's about time (and I think it's starting to happen) that women reclaim their own body image and start making their own rules. To hell with advertisers, fashion designers, movie/TV executives! Why should there be such a narrow standard of beauty? It's manipulative and unhealthy and I don't think we should put up with it for one more minute.
