9 Foolproof Steps To Skinnyness
I have no idea why the person who wrote this should even be allowed to have anything published. This has got to be the dumbest idea I've ever heard. I think its really stupid how on one hand, this tip wants you to love yourself just the way you are and for the person you are, but the whole point of these tips is to help one get skinny. I think this is the most contradicting message I've heard in a long time. Its really difficult to sit and read stuff like this and not get frustrated. I hate how there are so many different people and sources out there saying "love yourself for who you are..." Its like society doesn't support this idea because no matter how much you may love yourself, there is always something to tear you down and make you feel like you aren't good enough. I thought this "tip" was a little ridiculous.

Agreed! Women are given thousands of mixed messages in our society. Bones are in! Curves are in! Love yourself. Hate yourself. Be passive to get a man. Be aggressive to get the guy you want.
