Victoria Secret Gone Crazy


Victoria Secret has lost it's mind. This campaign is so ridiculous, "Which Body are you ?" implying that the chicks in the ad are diverse like the woman of the world. Please the only difference is the hair color. Also these bras wouldn't fit me or other plus size woman with any degree of comfort.

An they have the nerve to offer a contest about body confidence . If you want me to be confident about my body, sell me a bra that will fit and lift my 42 DDD off my tummy so I can try to create a waist.

Pregnant Kourtney Kardashian: I Forgot to Take "the Pill"

Kourtney Kardashian says

Getting pregnant with Scott Disick -- with whom she recently reunited after splitting in February -- was unplanned.

"This probably sounds so dumb, but there's so many times I'll forget to take my pill and I don't think it's that big of a deal. It's just so stupid," she admitted.

Kourtney Kardashian is the prime example of the break down in women's health education. There are some many things wrong with her story.

1. She didn't mention her condom breaking. Which means she wasn't protecting herself from STDs.

2. She didn't follow the instructions that come with the pill. For example if you miss more then 3 pills in a row. You have to trash the back and start over again.

3. At 30 you need to be planning your reproductive health you either having the baby or you are not. Unplanned at this point in you life is being moronic.

4. If you breaking up in February and having a Christmas time baby. I think we need visit Maury's show just in case.

Here is a link for up to date factual info about the pill.

10 Reasons You're Not Losing That Weight

Nancy Gottesman, at Women's Health says:

Dieting is complicated and we often unwittingly sabotage our best intentions. For instance, who would ever think that working out in the a.m. or cranking the AC might be the reason you're not slimming down? Luckily, once you've identified these flubs, fixing them is nowhere near as hard as pulling on a pair of control-top hose.

10 Reasons You're Not Losing That Weight

1. Skipping Sleep.
2. French fries are your main vegtable.
3. Artifical climate (like A/C) is making you hungry.
4. Trying to justify big meals with exercise.
5. You looking for quick results and defeat the purpose by trying an unstainable diet.
6. Setting realistic goal may make you not try as hard.
7. Eating candy for anti-oxidents.
8. You are only getting water from the fountain and not from your food.
9. Using labor saving devices to do the most basic tasks.
10. You don't get enough natural potassium.

‘Phantom fat’ can linger after weight loss

Body-image experts say it’s not uncommon for people, especially women, who have lost a lot of weight to be disappointed to some extent to discover that they still aren’t “perfect.” The excess fat is gone when they reach their goal weight, but they may have sagging skin, cellulite or a body shape that they still deem undesirable. Like Hicks, some even continue to see themselves as though they are overweight.

Experts say part of the problem in our body-obsessed culture is that many women — and increasingly more men — have highly unrealistic expectations of what weight loss can do for them. Too often, they think hitting their ideal weight will make them look like a swimsuit model in a magazine, and they’re disappointed when that’s not the case.

I have been blessed to be delusional. When I look in the mirror, I always look smaller then the scale says I am. The only time I can see is my true size is in a picture with measuring reference.

I take a lot of pictures in front of doors. So when I can't see the door around my hips. I have to accept that I am fat. It is a hard realization, so what I do when I can, is pose in open spaces with no references then I look smaller again.

I am also blessed to know that most of my problems are caused by my perception of events and the rest are due to economic issues. So I have no beliefs that my life will be better when smaller/thinner.
