DIETING - HELP! I HAVE A BIG BOTTOM & A SMALL TOP!

No matter how much weight you lose, your bottom seems to stay about the same while your top shrinks - and it's already too small as it is!!  What could you be doing wrong?

You aren't doing anything wrong.  Unfortunately, genes shape and mold our bodies and sometimes, there's little we can do to change things. No matter how many hills you climb, or how many sit-ups you do, that 'hourglass shape' or that 'abdominal six-pack' just isn't going to materialize.

However, that doesn't mean that exercise should cease!  It simply means that there comes a time in our lives when we must accept ourselves for what we are. Some people are born with a nose that is too big for their face, or a head that is too small for their body. From chests to hidden objects, very few people in life have a perfect body - or as close to perfect as one can get.

Because we are all different, we are all unique. Therefore, like yourself and be proud of not only who you are, but also of what you look like. Being healthy is far more important than having perfect measurements and a crumbling foundation.

I think that Mr. Rogers had 'people' down pretty well when he used to say, "I like you just the way you are."  If only we could all like our own selves in this likewise manner the world would be a much happier place!
