WEIGHT, RELATIONSHIPS, AND BODY IMAGE

• A lot of men who are overweight lose weight and think they will be a ladies magnet
  • However, physical is not NEARLY as important to women as men
    • Men need to work on their personalities and who they are as a person instead of obsessing over body image
• Many people lose the weight, then ask “now what”
  • They want to go back to their old diet but that will put the weight right back on
• In high school, Kristen struggled with her ‘image’ as she had a crossed eye and thick glasses
  • She was bullied and had a negative body imagine from the start
    • She changed schools at 17
    • Vinnie relates to this because he was really picked on (he was deaf/speech challenged when he was little and it carried all the way through high school)
• Marni felt awkward and shy, although she was more outgoing than she gave herself credit for, but she did have to deal with lots of bullying
• The bullying that the two endured still affects them to an extent although now the two have great self worth
• Many beautiful women are insecure because they were bullied and brought down when they were younger
• Both tried to be healthy by eating less and then binge-eating, which actually hurt their weight
  • Going to the gym made them ‘bulk up’ which caused them to obsess because they wanted to be lean
