Your Body – Sticks or Curves, It’s Your Choice!

Gone are the days of broomsticks topped with heads of women!

The world is finding that curves are quite nice...

Richard Simmons is a lot like Neil Diamond; people either hate him, or love him. If you ever get an opportunity to read one of his Diet Bites books, go for it! They are totally entertaining and will help motivate you as you lose weight. They are great motivators for weight maintenance as well. In one of his first productions, he talked about eating an entire large jar of mustard one time because he was desperately hungry. I’ll never forget it!

Nonetheless, Richard also addressed one method used by fashion models to lose weight. He talked of how they soaked cotton balls in liquid gelatin and ate them so they wouldn’t feel hungry. Sad, isn’t it?

Well, thankfully the world’s prospective of how the human body should look has taken on a big change during the last few months. Suddenly, curves are in! J-Lo had a big impact in this field, as did other popular singers and actresses.

There was also a huge controversy a couple of years ago about the standard weight charts being about 10 pounds under what a normal person should weigh in order to be at the healthiest state possible. Professionals have also recognized that older people are generally healthier if they have a bit of meat on their bones, than not. It seems that remaining active plays more of a part in the overall scheme of things than the perfect weight. It’s all about moving!

This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try to eat healthy, or that we shouldn’t try to maintain healthier weights. It does mean that we don’t have to be so restrictive when dealing with that ‘magic’ number on our scale.

So, if you’ve got curves count yourself as among one of the fortunate ones these days!
