Pissed off about how the media's ideal body image standards make you feel? I understand, however this is not your typical pity party article to make you feel like a victim of media and body image brainwashing...
...Instead, I want to offer you some life-changing information that can help you claim your power, stop being a victim of the media, and manifest your own best body shape.
When it comes to dealing with media and body image issues, women usually choose one of two ways...
...They either starve themselves, trying to fit that unhealthy image, or they accept the recently popular propaganda that women are designed by nature to be fat. Believe me, neither of these options are good for your self esteem.
Current body image statistics indicate that, even though it's becoming more and more a problem for men, body image most strongly affects women -- and girls too. Teen body image issues are like an epidemic. And it's not just teens...
...Girls as young as five are becoming self-conscious about their bodies.
Female body image is at an all time low in spite of all the efforts to help girls, and women accept, and feel good about being who they are.
"It doesn't matter what you say to make us feel better about ourselves, when we compare our bodies to those perfect specimens we see on T.V., and in fashion magazines, our self image sinks into the pits of despair"...
..."Because no matter how hard, or what we try -- whether that's the latest fad diet, or "ab-blasting" exercise, we cannot attain the figure we desire."
A huge part of the reason women aren't attaining their own ideal body image is because they're affected by the media's misleading influence on how to stay fit and beautiful...
....If you watch enough mainstream T.V., you come to the inevitable conclusion that there's something wrong with you -- with your genetics that's making you fat.
And let's be honest...
...Low energy, and food addictions make it much easier to accept your fate than seek real answers and make positive health changes.
Let me tell you something...
...Even though you don't want to be as thin as a supermodel -- it's plain unhealthy -- you'll never attain anything remotely close to your own ideal body image if you eat, and drink like people do on T.V, or in magazines...
...Indulging in alcohol, pizza, or ice cream won't make you skinny. But then neither will sipping diet soda's, or eating whole grain cereal for breakfast. This is the deception that is created when big food corporations pay movie, and T.V. show producers to feature, and promote their products.

The media's influence on our body image is both deep and broad. Body image disorder should also include the mainstream media induced beliefs that having a female body is a deadly threat, and that Nature has it out for you.
We are not only made to feel bad about our body's shape, but taught to identify with it as well. In other words...
...On T.V., it's all about looks.
Whether it's a disapproving glance toward an overweight bottom, or creating negative beliefs about aging, the onslaught from media and body image programming never ceases.
