Jake, it's like that in L.A., too, isn't it? When I worked at the ad agency I was with for five years, one of our big clients was a major cosmetics company. While researching for their ads, we did a nation-wide survey for them, and it turns out that across the board, the average American woman is a size 12. Guess which two cities were the exceptions? New York and Los Angeles, where the average was a size 2. FIVE whole dress sizes between two cities and the entire rest of the country, as an average. And I'm sorry, I don't think there "just happens to be" an entire population of naturally rail-thin women only in those two cities alone by coincidence. I'd venture to guess a lot of women in both places are probably doing some really dangerous things to stay that thin.
Even if it's not outright crazy stuff, we have a lot of size 0s and 2s in my office (mostly the younger girls, who get brainwashed by this stuff - I did too, when I was there age), and you should see what these girls *don't* eat. You see them coming back at lunch with nothing more than garnish. They have these little extra small sizes of salad, and nothing more. No protein, no whole grains, no dairy or soy, nothing. It's really creepy.Last edited by Lisa; 05-15-2010, 06:12 AM.2012 Avatar Theme - LADIES FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD. January: Ava Gardner.

Great article, Lisa, and I concur: size 2's and size 0's do nothing for me. Girls are meant to have curves, damn it! The concentration camp look is NOT sexy.
I'm getting inspired lately. Until I can get back into the gym on a regular basis, the wife and I and my mom are going to start walking after dinner to try and burn off some weight. Good cardio, plus we're going to start using our home treadmill more regularly, too. I'm gonna try and make this the Summer of Svelte.

You go for it, boo boo! Best of luck to you and Jen and your mom! Even when I decide to treat myself, I make myself walk for it, because I love walking. So let's say that I want to get something from Sephora. Sure, there's Sephoras all over the city, and there's one right across from my office. But I make myself walk to the Sephora three subway stops away. If you go at a good brisk pace, it's not even that long to get to.2012 Avatar Theme - LADIES FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD.

So for a while I've been hovering around 157, which has been so annoying since I've been working out and trying to eat better. Yesterday I got on the scale and was at 149! I weighed myself like 4 times to see if it was a mistake... nope! I think that what I'm doing is actually working...
Addition: I just realized what thread I posted this in.... kind of wish I posted this in the personal accomplishments instead of the "you sound fat" thread...Last edited by Lesley; 05-15-2010, 04:47 PM.If I were Shé, do you think I'd be operating a taco truck? Shé brings hope. Shé rights the wrongs. Unfortunately, Shé is a myth.
