I've always been interested/troubled by this topic. A healthy woman is a beautiful one, no doubt...the ones who look like bean poles (especially on purpose)...just, no. I realize it is often a deeper issue than this but if you lack the respect for your body to keep it at a good weight then you need to worry far more about what's weighing down your heart and mind instead!

I've been troubled by the topic because, while my BMI is normal, I have the curse of carrying most of my fat in the belly. It has not done me any favors over the years and has left me self-conscious and feeling very unattractive.
