Full Body Image
Body image is a very interesting subject. The stats tell a valuable story of life and it is sad to think about. Body image can be a very personal issue and embarrassing for most young females. As much as 88% of young girls feel negative about their body shape and up to half have a eating disorder. It is sad that the world we live in may judge people by their weight or physical appearance but it is inevitable for many reasons. I do not think it is difficult to get into shape. You can eat as much as you want as long as you exercise. I think a lack of exercise is the main reason for obesity now a days. People seem to be getting more lazy as time goes on. I am sick of people playing video games instead of playing basketball. I don't blame fast food for obesity strictly because of people generally being lazy. There is so much time over the week when I'm just sitting around, there is plenty of opportunity's to get outside and do something proactive. All in all this was a very disturbing but true article about body images in young adults and how we are brainwashed about our body's.

I agree, Body image is an interresting subject. Everytime I think about it, movies like Zoolander keep popping into my head. Obviously its a funny movie, but people are really like that, not that retarded but still. People are way too concerned with their image. Sure its important for things like impressing a girl or a job interview, but its it really nessicary to do everything in ones power to try and be with the "In Crowd"...
